I am short-sighted... just sees around 10 cm (four inches) without my contacts. But WITH my contacts my sight is very good. My optichian (or whatever you call the person that checks you sight regulary) says that I see twice as good as an average person. I am among the three sharpest of his customers (and he has many...).
The power of my lenses are right -5 and left -5.25 dioptries
And yes, I read a lot: http://folk.uio.no/kristaga/bok.html

@kristaga - my eyesight's roughly the same as yours - I can see fine with my glasses on, but without them things are going out of focus less than a metre in front of me!
I think the angle I sit at my PC's wrong as well, as my neck sometimes hurts a bit after being on the pc for a while.

Would anyone consider laser eye treatment? 
Cos i bloody would not 
When im tired it's a struggle for me to read anything like tv across my room w/o glasses and when ive been staring at a pc from 8pm till 3am like now I get a headache!
Luckily I don't have my own connection @ home to the net so I only use the pc weekends!
PS> THATS A NICE PIECE OF KNOWLEDGE THERE BOUT THE HUMAN EYE BEING 7PIXELS THANS FOR THAT LIKE JN I'LL TRY AND STORE IT SOMEWHERE

I have to wear glasses, I want a pair of titanium ones cos they are so light, but i can't afford them.
As for laser eye surgery I can't even afford dream about it. |

Good to see you all talking about the industry I work in.... Just scrolling through the forum I will try and answer a few questions..
Laser/Lasik/PRK I would avoid that like the plague, I have seen one to many customers come back and complain about the problems they experience after the sugery. The most common is flashing lights when you close your eyes, and also very dry eyes. I would also like to point out that you will never rid yourself of your glasses as you will still be very myopic (short sighted) after the sugery.
But the worst had to be this guy I saw who was punched in the face, and the lid of the eye opened up, it was really bad...
Ok now for the 20/20 vision part. If you have 20/20 vision, you can see clearly at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance. If you have 20/100 vision, it means that you must be as close as 20 feet to see what a person with normal vision can see at 100 feet.
Ok I am boring you all, but keep your eyes safe guys remember you only have 2...(some of you might have 4  )
P.s you eyes DON'T see in megapixel, but in GIGAPIXEL..(dont ask me how much because that I dont know)It all becomes to technical after that, and you will probably need to speak to a brain surgeon to break it down from there.

I can't read a book at more than 20 cm without my glasses !!!! It started when I was 8/9, so for my case it isn't the pc, it's just in the familly and I'm thinking about making the laser thingy as I'm sick of it
