Hmmm...does that mean you just see the white letters "Stop" floating on a stick? 

And my vision is perfect, stock condition from the assembly line.

Right now I have a subdural hemotoma in my right eye. Its basically just a bunch of broken blood vessels, and FYI it hurts really bad when you get kneed in the face.

Yeah that color blind test link was.... Surprising I sat there looking at that last one for a good few minutes trying to see a freakin' number.

On topic, I'm an optician by trade.  I work as the optical lab manager for a Dr.'s office.  I'd be interested in reading Marconius's med journal entry.  I spend most of my day creating and fitting optical devices.  Glasses, prosthetics, contacts, etc....

My vision isn't presbyopic, yet.....  but 40 is a decade away.  Small astigmatism and slight correction for distance. (20/30 - 20/40)

Yeah with that colour-blidness test I decided not to lean close to see if I could find a number in that last one, but leaned back to see if I could see it from a distance.

I'm so fucking glad I did too...

Well, _j5689_ ...

You saw an ophthalmologist... Not the best for prescribing lenses...

You should see an optometrist... They specifically prescribe lenses...

My vision is 20/20, but I'm actually one step long sighted. I have no problems seeing things close up, or at night and the only thing that's different from normal 20/20 vision is I can see further than normal people. Great if I wanted to be a pilot.

Hey, stuff like that happens to me sometimes... I go blind (can still see slightly, but for all intents and purposes..) for about 20/30 seconds and my head explodes in pain..... I tend to stagger around for a little while when this happens too (doesn't that get some odd looks from passers by)... Never had glasses never needed them, I'm really glad I have reasonable vision too.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

You know, the fact that the link to that colorblindness test ended in a55hat kinda made me feel something was going to happen. When the cursor changed to a hand-thingy for the last box, that totally gave it away so I turned off my sound, leaned back and clicked. It wasn;t so bad .

On topic, perfect vision, eyes in mint condition, hardly used.

I also can't focus on those purple lightbulbs (not that anyone ever uses them that much anyway), no matter how many times I blink or run my eyes it look blurry.  I don't mean colorblind, I just mean that that wire inside of it is blurred kinda.

Actually, because you're a diabetic, your Rx can change depending on your BS count.  It fluctuates like the weather in Texas.  Keeping your diabetes in check is the correct way to stabalize your vision.

Hey KJ, I believe this is one of the cases.

Of course they won't mention any patient names, but the doctors who treated me are the authors of the paper.  I'll have to do a lot more searching to find the other articles.
