thanks for the reply. are you near or far sighted?


myLot reputation of 78/100. rogue13xmen13 (5157)   ranked 707 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

I have far-sighted Astigmatism, and my boyfriend has near-sighted Astigmatism. Our children will definately have Astigmatism, but the question is which kind of Astigmatism will they have?


myLot reputation of 98/100. shiloh_222 (1638)   ranked 63 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

no, not really. without glasses, i have to squint to be able to see whatever is in front of me. i've been wearing prescriptive glasses since i was in my sophomore year in highschool. everytime i go outside, i wear contact lenses. but if i'm staying at home, i just wear my glasses.

and without these, i'm blind as a bat.

Hi my friend, happy

I can read the computer screen without my glasses, but it's not very clear. lol

When I get up in the morning, I turn my computer right on and try to focus on the screen without taking the time out to clean my glasses and put them on. I fiddle like this for about an hour until I give up and get them out. lol

Happy MyLogging,
Char
happy

I can read without my glasses, but it causes a strain on my eyes.
However, the strain is bearable in comparison to the discomfort one experiences while trying to lie down and read with your glasses on... you can't turn to any one side!doh

My greater problem is, I find it more strenuous to read the computer screen without my glasses on. If I wear them at the computer, my eyes demand that I wear them while reading, too!lol

It's a dilemma, therefore. To wear, or not to wear!


myLot reputation of 97/100. eveeee (335)   ranked 1,659 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

I have the same problem of laying down wearing glasses. It is hard unless you fall asleep sitting up and then lay down in your sleep and then I have slept for hours wearing them.. Ooops;)


myLot reputation of 98/100. shiloh_222 (1638)   ranked 63 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

thanks for the reply. i need to wear my glasses.

 
6. myLot reputation of 97/100. eveeee (335)   ranked 1,659 out of 7,277 in reading   1 month ago

I wear my glasses most of the time anyway so I will wear them for reading, except in two circumstances. I love to read in the bath and bed. In the bath I cannot wear them as they steam up and in bed I like to lie down on my side and read. I am finding it harder to read without them though which is a shame, and I will get a headache if I do it for any length of time. I try not to read for long in the bath now, and in bed I tend to sit up as long as possible while wearing them. When I lie down though, if I still want to read I take them off. Only problem I have is when I fall asleep sitting up reading and then I end up laying down in the night wearing my glasses! I am surprised they are still in one piece to be honest.

If on the pc though, I have no option but to wear them.

My eyes are stil quite good. I have not yet started using glasses, and I think i may still be off the reading glasses for along while.

No, I am blind as a bat without my glasses. In fact, I cannot even see two feel in from of my face without them.


myLot reputation of 98/100. shiloh_222 (1638)   ranked 63 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

thanks for the response. oh.....are you using double-vision glasses?

 
9. myLot reputation of 90/100. deem1977 (216)   ranked 292 out of 7,277 in reading   1 month ago

I can read without glasses though I am reaching (or actually have reached) the age where in dim light I cannot see print that is too small. I am, however, holding off on the reading glasses because I can read all day at work without glasses -- both print and computer screen -- therefore, I am not anxious to rush into reading glasses. This is especially true because then you end up having to take them off when not reading and then put them back on again, or slide them down your nose to look over them.


myLot reputation of 98/100. shiloh_222 (1638)   ranked 63 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

thanks for the reply. hehehhe... well, glasses are something that you need to get use to. how about contacts?


myLot reputation of 90/100. deem1977 (216)   ranked 292 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

I am not sure that they really have contact lenses if you just need reading glasses. Or, if they do, I think they are relatively recent. I guess I'll find out when the time comes.

I can't read without my glasses. It gets all blurry if I try. What I do now is get books that have the big letters than I do fine. I am just sooo happy that publishers started to print books with big letters. thumbup


myLot reputation of 90/100. deem1977 (216)   ranked 292 out of 7,277 in reading  1 month ago

I like reading the large print books at the library too. Sometimes I cannot help but chuckle to myself because when I was younger and first saw the large print books at the library I remember asking the librarian if they were limited to patrons with vision disabilities or whether anyone could check them out. Back then my inquiry was inspired by the fact that a book I wanted was checked out already in regular print but was on the shelves in large print so I wondered if I could check it out. Now I am happy when I see that a book I am interested in comes in large print because I check that out first. LOL
