I am slightly longsighted, but haven't really had an eyetest for about 5+ years. Never had any problems and don't wear any glasses (yet!) Seeing as i'm at a machine at least 8 hours a day, I think I should get a test soon :-s

I was near sighted, and like everything that makes life easier, my instructor told me eyeglasses are for pussies...

I'm also colorblind, but not that much. Apparently there are certain shades of red that I'm not comfortable with.

Well, I have 20/20 in one eye, but I'm blind in the other.....I can technically still see out of it, but there is no lens or iris in that eye. Long story short; BOOM! goes the car battery, splat goes my eye. Happened August, 1991.

Weird ... I have the same thing, pretty much ... perfect sight in my right, totally blind in my left ... wasn't acid though ... it was from a head injury I sustained during a building fire, years ago.

Have no hearing in my left ear either, from the same incident ... right ear has perfect hearing ...

Hey TBE...are you firefighter?

No, it was a fire in my dorm, when I was in the air force ... a dorm that was ironically shared with the base's firefighters ...

My eye sight is signficantly better than 20/20 vision. I haven't had it measured in a year or so but I almost want to say its 20/15 if not more. Doctors don't test past 20/20 for the most part, because they hate over-achievers =X

20/20 means you see at 20 feet what normal people see at 20 feet. I can see at 20 feet what normal people see at 15 feet.

PDF of a vision test going to 15/20


This one goes to 4/20

stand 20 feet away from these print outs and tell me what you see...

By the way... I read hawks have 2/20 vision, but how the hell would someone know that??
Can the hawk read letters? =X

Color Blindness check

Finished the test in 30 seconds missing only number 6 down which I got once i went back to look again..

im confused by the other ways to measure eyesight like being able to see this far in feet and longsighted (if it isnt the same as farsighted)

lazy to find out, too bad for me =]

i only know farsighted is able to see far, hard to see near. nearsighted is able to see near, hard to see far. also that higher than 20/20 vision is bad. im nearsighted and have 100 vision in my right eye, 105 in my left. it will keep going up but not as bad as in my past, where i would play games for at most 25 hours straight (ofc eating and toilet breaks in between) ;x


@DeMoNSTaR
woah 600 vision ?! i thought my friend's 400 vision was really bad already ;x he got laser eye surgery a few months ago, felt like an ice cube (forgot what it was) rubbing on his eye lol

Not true. Blue is recessive so your parents, even if both brown eyed, can still pass on the recessive blue to you ONLY if they both have it (and I don't mean EXPRESSED) and both give you that gene.
Brown eyes on the other hand only require one parent to give you brown and it will overright blue because brown is Dominant and only needs to be expressed once to give you brown.
I, for example, have 2 brothers and a sister and two parents all with brown eyes. I have blue eyes. Lets do a quick punit square...
X=Mom since women have 2X Chromosomes. Men have XY so I'll make dad=Y Bl=Blue B=Brown...soo lets see..

XB+YB = Brown.
XB + YBl = Brown
XBl+ YB = Brown
XBl + YBl = Blue

Believe me, I've thought about this...plus I have curly hair....which no one else in the family has either...but it somehow got to me..

I've been to 6th grade science class. I just like to freak people out who can't remember any of that.

7th. 6th was Earth, 8th was physical, and 7th was life science.

Unless you went to a screwed up private school.

I learned Punit squares and genetics in 4th grade with fruit flys and a microscope. But it wasn't taught in class. Mom was a slave driver. and had access at the local college...
