lol, that's quite funky... Use on eye for seeing things up close, and one for far away

Hehe...kinda funny how I was told that my eyes will go bad from PCs. They are fine and never had a problem. It could be because I have been using an LCD ever since 1997 when I got my first PC. They, in my view, do not strain the eyes as much as CRTs, regardless of how high their refresh rates are.

yup, if i can't see something far away cover up my l;eft eye and i can see for miles, guess i haven't got perfect 20/20 vision though

Nope, I think I may need them when I hit my 40s, but that's still a few decades away.

I'm suposed to wear glasses too, but I don't cause I hate having the damn things on my face all day too uncomfortable.

Yay! I got my Titanium Specs today. Look real good, light and strong! Makes me look a little more intelligent!

I've had glasses for about 12 years or so... Got 'em in the 4th grade! They've stayed relatively the same over the last few years, thankfully - because my correction is somewhere around -4.00!
