Flying Shogi Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) I ask this becuase I just got my annual eye examation and I'm getting new glasses. To my surprise, my eyes didn't get any worse from last year. If anyone wears glasses/contacts, when did you start and what caused you to wear it? I played too much video games so yeah. Started around 5th grade. Edited September 1, 2010 by UberLughFTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstraLunaSol Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) Glasses here. Watching TV/Video games for too long. I take them off usually, but if for too long, my eyes start hurting.

Chuy Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Only to see far away but not all day use. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intoner Two Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Glasses, since I was 5; it was the "you're sitting too close to the television" classic excuse XD. I only take them off to shower/sleep and sometimes for pictures. Contacts would be impossible since I got stung on my lower eyelid of my left eye a few years ago and cannot hold it open very far nor for barely more than a second. Hence, I'd never get the lens in, eye drops are an extreme hassle, too, when I go for optometrist appointments~. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaceDancer Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I've been wearing glasses since the 3rd grade, presumably because myopia is a curse in my family :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Glasses, and my vision started to go before I could read. I can't wear contacts when I want to play certain games seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Been wearing glasses since I was in 10th grade I think. My only problem with them is cleaning them and them hurting my nose if I have them on all day which I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emeraldfox Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I've been wearing glasses since Kindergarten. My first pair irritated my ears, so I had to wear bandages for a while, after a while I got used to wearing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriemhild Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I've been wearing glasses since 2nd or 3rd Grade iirc. Not sure why it happened though, because that was before we got a TV or a computer as far as I remember. The problem kept getting worse though.

Aleph Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 What's this TV crap? My eyes needed glasses because they're shaped wrong. TVs totally cut your eyes like a laser and reshape them, to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawman Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Contacts. Had glasses in 7th and 8th grade, switched to contacts because they are better. i had to get them because my family just has bad eyesight. Its all genetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntegerZero Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 No glasses here. Doctor made a remark on how good my vision is, considering my family history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soren37 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 No glasses, but I have the sneaking suspicion that I may have some form of colour blindness. Not sure what one though, as I can still tell red and green apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zkirsche Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 I have pretty good vision, so no glasses here. And I play a LOT of vidoe games and stuff, so it could/should be better than it is. I put it behind eating carrots. Vitamin A does wonders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Shogi Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) No glasses here. Doctor made a remark on how good my vision is, considering my family history. I'm quite the oppsoite; no family history of bad eyesight and I consider myself nearly blind @ 120 degrees. Though, I'm quite curious how my friend has 40/20 vision in his left eye. Maybe it runs in his family line. Edited August 30, 2010 by UberLughFTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I don't need them, but I'm going to wear them anyway because glasses are hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secret Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I wear glasses because I'm a clone of Astra I play video games and I'm usually on the computer. Had them since 6th grade, but didn't start wearing them regularly until 7th. I refuse to wear contacts because I like glasses and they're easier to put on. Plus I think I look better in glasses ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freohr Datia Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I started with glasses then switched to contacts. *feels the contacts slightly messing up* *rubs her eye* Poor vision runs in the family. We're all bound to get it pretty much. I started wearing them around 6th/7th grade I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fayt Zelpher Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I actually have 20/15+ vision in both eyes. Good vision runs in my family. My dad occasionally wears slightly-corrective lenses, but I probably won't need lenses for the next 30 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
