I have ridiculously bad eyesight, but I have learned to live with an impressionistic view. Life is a Monet painting. I wander around enjoying myopia.
Everything is just very, very blurry. I've never had proper vision.
People who can’t see without glasses should wear them.
My eyes have been sensitive to light since the fifth grade. Without glasses I can't see the next hurdle.
I played football for Leeds United under-18s, but at 17 my eyes started to go and I had to wear glasses. The football had to go - there were no contact lenses in 1957.
My problem happens to be near-sightedness - inability to see distance. And this is pretty tough on a golfer.
I don't feel I can get used to my face wearing glasses... more than one pair of glasses, or any one pair until a cataclysmic, cosmic event causes me to get a new pair.
I was near sighted. I was born myopic, and I got glasses, right after that.
I don't believe for one second that the eye surgery has helped me on the mound.
Double vision makes reading the prompter very tricky.
I have had to come to terms with wearing glasses.
I'm really nearsighted, which has served me well.
Colin Singleton’s distance from his glasses made him realize the problem: myopia. He was nearsighted. The future lay before him, inevitable but invisible.
Without contacts, I'm almost blind.
The one thing in the world that I can't do without is my glasses. I don't really care about my laptop, I never answer my phone, and I don't care about trainers and stuff. But I'm pretty blind without my glasses or contact lenses.
My eyes are never going to be perfect.
I was walking down the street wearing glasses when the prescription ran out.
About 15 years ago I went though a period of a year or so when I just couldn't find anything good. My wife noticed I was having trouble reading menus. I bought some cheap reading glasses in a drug store. I got home and suddenly all these books that weren't good were good.
I'm too short-sighted, too squeamish for contact lenses and too vain for glasses.
I wore glasses my whole life, but then I got Lasik eyeball surgery, and I fixed that.
To me, wearing glasses is no pleasure, but once I conceded that I simply couldn't properly judge distance without them, I began to experiment. I tried glasses and found them uncomfortable. I switched to contact lenses, and they also bothered me.
Normally, improving contrast sensitivity means using glasses or surgery to correct the eye. But we've found that action video games train the brain to process visual information more efficiently and improve vision.
I never wore glasses except when I had to read a teleprompter at an awards show or drive, so I didn't notice much. I could exist in my head. It was kind of my escape from the world and my protection.
I see better today than I did three or five years ago.
I am very short-sighted but I don't wear my glasses as they give me a headache, so if everyone could just stand closer to me that would help.
