Poll: are you bespectacled ?

[Nautical Honors Society]

I switch between contacts and glasses frequently, so I chose other.

 

[Kais86]

Glasses, 10 or so years.

 

[Casual Shinji]

I just got my new pair today.

And they're true Freeman glasses at that.

 

[newguy77]

Yes, for about three years. I needed them earlier, but it never really started to matter until I started driving.

 

[Ailia]

I've had glasses for almost ten years now. Bad genetics from my dad's side of the family (where almost everyone has glasses). I've been wearing contacts on occasion but for some reaosn prefer my glasses.

 

[Dags90]

I wear glasses. I wouldn't see much without them. I am a bat *flapflap*

I have my glasses for eleven years now. My sight got worse two times since them. I started with -1,25 dioptre and am now at -4 dioptre.

That's an offensive stereotype of bats. Even echolocating bats have fair long distance vision, and fruit bats rely on their sight and smell to find fruit.

I only wear glasses when I need to see detail farther than about 20' or so. Also, sometimes while driving at night or in the rain.

 

[aakibar]

glasses all the way, been this way since like fifth grade plan to keep it this way

 

[Chemical Alia]

I've had glasses for 22 years. I've had contacts too since the 6th grade, but I can't wear them much since I moved to Texas because for some reason they get really dry and tear when they're in my eyes and I have to replace them too often.

 

[C95J]

Nope, and thank god too, I reckon I would look horrible with glasses on. They just don't suit me. I wouldn't want to bother with contacts either.

 

[AWAR]

For some reason I read "bitestacled"...

OT: Oh yes I am, for the past 7 or 8 years. I'm practically blind without them so I have to wear them all the time. Laser surgery? Not for me folks, I've asked opticians if they'd do it to their children and they unanimously said no.

 

[Pandaman1911]

Why yes, I am. Discovered that I needed glasses when I jokingly tried on a friend's pair when I was 13, and said "What the hell, I can see kind of better now". I've got astigmatism (fancy speak meaning that my eyes don't focus the light right when they're both lookin' at the same thing). It's worse in my left eye, and they're both actually getting worse, and I really need to get an eye exam sooner rather than later...

 

[Macrobstar]

well i am bespectacled, most of my friends are bespectacled. so are you? and how long have you been bespectacled?

Why do you use the word bespectacled so much?

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Fear my perfect eyesight!

...Are you fearing it? Oh, OK then.

Express some emotion towards my perfect eyesight!

Perfect eyesight-five? *high fives*

Wouldn't that involve us somehow hitting our eyeballs together? I imagine that'd be somewhat detrimental...

 

[King Toasty]

Yes. Since I was three. :c

Bionic lens surgery AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Goddammit guys, stop showing off your eyes!

We the bespectacled will VAPORIZE you with... the sun... focusing on you. Yeah.

 

[The Lugz]

sure, i have optical augmentations same as i have temporal augmentation.
occasionally i have atmospheric rectification systems and thermal optimisation too
not to mention my super-light armour and rubberised traction pads
we are the borg, resisting the future is futile.

 

[Lilitu]

If you're a bat i wonder what awesome thing I would be? I recently went to test my sight, because my eyes had felt kinda strained for a couple of months. Turns out my right eye is currently at -8 and my left at -8.25. Feels bad man.

Maybe a mole?
Moles are cute
(Those underground, not necessary the spying ones)

I am sure -8 feels bad
I always felt bad when my eyes got worse and I am still afraid that that could happen again.

 

[Folio]

Well, no. But I like girls with glasses. Just wanted to point that out there.

Captcha: became inljecti

 

[gillebro]

Yep, about 7 years now, I think. I love my glasses like nothing else.

 

[Continuity]

Are you really a gamer?! I thought all gamers slowly burned their eyes to a gelatinous slurry within five years...

There's no scientific evidence (that i'm aware of) that using a monitor or watchng a TV makes your eyesight worse.

Its something of an urban myth I think.
