I should include in that poll for the people that wear glasses, how many had a night light?

Read a while back that if you grew up as a child having a night light in your room that you are about 90% more likely to need glasses later on in life. The reason being - your eyes don't rest properly at night because of the light coming in constantly. They are never able to regenerate fully.

That is from sleep in your eyes! Actually, it's a film. Happens to everyone once in a while. It's not the Mk2 eyeball's fault.

Hey! No brail allowed on this board. That is an unfair advantage blind people have got on us!

Been blind as a bat for years...

My vision is something along the lines of 20/200. -4.25 diopters in the left eye, -5.75 in the right, not to mention some astigmatism.

Default Glasses

I've worn glasses since grade 5 (1995) - I can't imagine living without wearing them now.

Had to get glasses when I joined the Army back in the 80's - Funnily enough I didn't get them till after I'd done my recruit training but I qualified as one of the best shooters in my platoon
