Default How well can you see?

Do you need glasses or contacts to see properly? Or do you have perfect vision or can just see well enough to not wear glasses?

I wear glasses, tried contact lenses once but one split in my eye, luckily I was in the opticians but it put me right off.

I wouldn't say I've got amazing eye-sight but I don't need anything, although I'd love to wear glasses!

Believe me you wouldn't...You can't even look down without them falling off your face or anything LOL. The headaches get really bad as well sometimes. :/

Luckily I just wear contacts now.

Wear glasses mainly but contacts when I go out. Dont feel dressed up with glasses on but too lazy to be bothered with contacts all the time.

I have mental condition where one of my eyes didn't properly and fully connect to my brain or sumat idea - So anyway if i close my good eye I like can't read at all, just make out blurry shapes. With both eyes, vision is pretty perfect with just slightly blurred peripheral vision on one side. 3D doesn't work great for me.

Wear contacts, my eyesight isn't terrible but things are just a lot more clear and focused so I prefer wearing them when I go out, if I'm not really doing anything and just lounging about I won't bother or just put my glasses on if I need them

Yeah, this. I don't really need contacts at home doing nowt but I need for college in particular (a bit short sighted so I can't see the board without...).

I can't see very well at all without my glasses, I'm not exactly blind, but I do struggle.

I have to wear glasses all the time. I've got an astigmatism (in my left eye I think, but I'm not entirely sure), so without them everything is very blurry and I can't see for shit pretty much.

I did look into getting contacts a few weeks ago but it would've cost £200+ for a set of them. I couldn't get daily or monthly ones so I would have to have gotten the permanent ones which is why they were so expensive. I don't think my NHS thingy covered them either even though it covered my glasses idk it was weird.

My cousin was really similar, she could basically see nothing. She got laser eye surgery done, and she now has 20/20 vision

Y'see I would get that done, but I don't think it's covered by the NHS.

Laser surgery seems a good option, but I was told by someone that it needs doing every few years. Is that true?

Definitely.

I would do, but I'd rather use all the money that goes on them to get a set of deisgner frames or something. I really want some Ray Ban glasses frames myself.
