I've been staring at screens for 6 or 7 years and my vision hasn't deterioated at all. I think all that is a myth.

I've worn glasses since I was 4 years old. I occasionally wear contacts, but allergies keep them out of my eyes most of the time damnit. BTW, my contact power is -7.50 .. I've been thinking about the laser surgery, but I'm going to wait a few more years and hope that by then they can restore your eyes back to perfect 20/20.

*raises hand*

Contacts sometimes...but I don't like them very much and they don't work as well (for me becuase of the strenght of perscription required for my horrid eyes).

Not me, although my eye is getting worse and worse. Hopefully I won't have to get them for a while

I used to wear glasses but haven't for the last 30 years or so. I hated them when I had them though. They made me look like a freakin' nerd!:p

I'm nearsighted in one eye, farsighted in the other. Together, they compensate for each other and I can see just fine. They're not bad enough that the BMV thinks I need to wear them, and I haven't caused any problems for myself or anybody else by not wearing them. The only downside is that from time to time my eyes get tired and they blur just a tad, but never enough to cause trouble.

So, no I do not wear glasses.

But, like kami, I do wear my :cool: rather often.:) -kd5-
