How to tell if you need glasses

- If you've never worn glasses before, it's tough to know if you should be wearing them. Symptoms can include blurriness, a veil over your vision or spots in your eyes. But there are hidden dangers that have no symptoms that you should definitely be concerned about.

Today I tried my friend's glasses for a laugh... Then, I realized I could see clearer...
omg same
Idk why but I can see through anyone's glasses. I've tried everyone's even those with really bad eyesight and I can see perfectly fine. My vision is good without glasses though. Should I be concerned?
I put on my sisters old glasses as a joke and could see way clearer
same
Ugh!!! Imma do the same to my glasses friends. Bruh i will look even uglier in glasses. I cant see things from far properly. It feels like my eyes cant concentrate from far.
step 1: everything is blurry
now you know you need glasses
ikr ?
that's not how it works for everyone
I can't really see far things. Do I need glasses? When I see them, it looks like double or something. It's very difficult too see.
CallMeh Yap yes but not a heavy prescription like me
oh if they are double you probably need bifocals
How many finger am i holding up?
Im NOT BLIND
ikr i hate when people ask me that lol
Oh my lord it’s so annoying when people ask me that 10 MILLION TIMES A DAY😂
I don’t wear glasses, (yet) but they’re like hOw mAnY fInGeRs Am I hOlDinG
Well because you said finger the question is not really a question it’s because you said finger it mean you have 1 that means your only holding up one if you mean what you said. So that question is not hard at all. If anyone was paying close attention to what he or she was saying they would have automatically got the right answer. If you meant to write fingers it’s ok but I had to explain how you could get the answer without even seeing you.
Who i hate it when people say what am holding up
*has glasses and watches this anyways*
lol
Carsyn right lol

I have a story actually, in grade 4 all the cool kids started getting classes, and I really wanted a pair so I'd be classed as a cool kid and impress my crush. I pretended I couldn't read anything close up, so my mum took me to the opticians and I ended up getting eye drops and long vision glasses.. the glasses effected my eyes and now I can't see anything far away. I'm now awaiting short vision glasses.
OMG i tried that but my mom doesn't believe i actually need glasses i only wanted them cause my friend has them!
when wearing glasses your lens will blur and your normal eye will blurry when you remove it I need glasses but I need another solution to solve this without glasses
Poppy Barker worth it tho.
Poppy Barker 😂 when I was in 4th grade it was suuuuper uncool so when I had to get them I never wore them and my teachers kept asking my mom why she hadn't gotten me glasses cause I was squinty and had to sit right in the front and my mom was pissed because she kept getting notes sent home haha I eventually got annoyed that I literally couldn't see anything unless it was 12in from my face that I gave in. They still weren't cool though till like high school. Contacts were my saving grace lol
Poppy Barker cool
Sometimes when I read I feel like the words are shaking as I’m reading them

@Just_AutumnYT my friend has it
same, bro.
Me : Mom I think I need glasses-
Mom: ITS BECAUSE OF THAT DAMN PHONE!
• get in the boat • omg same like I can’t tell my parents I need some if I do they’ll kill me, so I gotta keep suffering
Accurate statement.
@@sunghoon9188 same i didn't tell my mom for 3 months my vision got so blurry but 2 weeks ago i suffered from a bad headache around my eyes and eyebrows area for almost 9 days then i couldn't help it i told my mom first thing she said was GO AND USE PHONE ITS BECAUSE i told u so many times not to use that thing all night long 😐😑
piece of shit it’s not that easy to them tho I’m scared
Lemme clear it for ya even if you wear glasses your vision will get worst until you are 20 ok it doesn't matter if you wear or don't wear but studies show that myopia progressed faster in them who wore glasses than who didn't so yeah
I can see perfectly I just can’t make out words far away...
Evan the Great thats why i wear glasses
Nearsightedness
Me too just that I cant see words close to me....
same i can see everything but when it comes to word or signboard i cant see it clearly lol
same
I can't see words from a distance because it's blurry and I have to squint at the board in school and the words are still blurry my friends can also see the board perfectly fine when I'm just over here asking them what's on the board
Mimi Pancakez I have the exact same thing I think I need glasses
Mimi Pancakez I can see everything except for words or text...
Mimi Pancakez I used to have that problem. For 5 ish years :/ at first I thought I wasnt the only one the. after a while I realised I had a problem but I was way too scared to tell anyone, so I just asked people whats on the board or copied their work :/, I don't know why I was so scared, I have glasses now though, I've had them for over a year
Me too, I sit at the very back
I remember when I was in 6th grade and was too shy to be in front of the classroom and the teacher will tell everyone to move up if you can't see all the people who could see would moved up and it would be no room for me so I was sit in the very far back of the class acting like I could see and shit when everything was blurry I didn't learn a damn thing in sixth grade now in 9th grade I'm in a lower class I didn't get glasses until 7th grade
*when you have glasses its so annoying to clean it, like every 30 minutes it smudges*

problems ikr
Username, pfp and comment go together 😂
YAS IKRRRRRRRRRRR
Ikr? I have to have the lens cleaners with me especially at work! I would either get dust particles or rain or smudges! I can't tell you how many times a day I have to clean them!
Went to an eye doctor, they said I needed glasses. I was like why I can see perfectly fine, and then I get them and I’m amaze how clear everything looks.
OMG SAMME! I didn't know it's that bad I still feel sorry for me even tho it's been a month since I start wearing them
Relatable
Do endmyopia instead. You probably had pseudomyopia and now you’re getting real myopia
Same! Once the lady put a lens into that frame which they keep in eye tests, I was like, Man!! I mean I could clearly read the letters on that test screen without glasses but once after putting those lens everything was sooo clear.😮
@@Maddie05007 Dawg wtf was that for? Now when you take them off, it will start to actually get blurry, and then they’ll increase the prescription more, you’ll get more lens induced myopia, etc.
Or just don’t wear them and just try seeing further, which is called active focusing
I never noticed how bad my eye sight had gotten until I got glasses.
when the video of life drops to 144p from 1080p you need glasses simple as that.
Bro your comment is great 😂👍
For me it's more like 360p
HOLY SHIT IT DID????!!!!!
😂
Mines like 720p and apparently I need glasses.
**forgets to wear glasses to school one day**
Teacher: **calls on me** can you read the text on the board for the class please?
Me: *Oh shi-*
holy shit thats relatable
Same! I forgot my glasses and cannot copy anything from the board😂
Luckily my teacher was nice enough to let me sit in front/ near the board because I forgot my glasses
Why Do People Forget Their Glasses Even Though Its Needed And You Can Actually Notice That You Are Not Wearing Glasses Except If Its Just Missing, Broken Or For Fashion. I Have Glasses And I Never Forget Them Since Im Really Nearsighted And Cant See The Face Of People Even Though They Are Right In Front Of Me Without Glasses
@@gyuhwool653 Hey, Get A Taste Of You Own Medicine! Caps On All Words Is Everyones Enemy!!!!!
@@extremelysilly527 shuuush
I came to this video to see if I need glasses but I'm still not sure, here's a explanation on what's happening to me. I could be sitting watching tv, youtube, in class reading, and ill be sitting there totally in focus then my eyes go blury and i have to refocus some how. I am leaving this comment so I can have someone tell me if I need glasses
Nick Mathews yes this has happened to me for the last while I went to the eye doctor and I was diagnosed that one eye is need sighted and the other is long and now I have glasses and I am seing an improvement. xx
Lolster thanks I'll try this
Nails for life! thanks, if the other guy who commented his trick doesn't work I guess I'll have to go to the eye doctors
This is actually quite normal. You know how cameras unfocus then refocus again? Thats kind of like our eyes. I'm not an eye specialist but as far as Im concerned you dont need glasses. I hope this helps.
Nick Mathews u don't need them.i didn't know I needed glasses until my mom noticed me squirting my eyes every time while I was watching tv so she took me to the doctor and now I have glasses.
As a person with glasses there was situations where my friends commented on my sight saying that they saw things I couldnt see, so thats like how I understood that I was nearsighted. Ask people and compare is the easiest way in my opinion to find out if anything seems weird and sketchy about your sight.
That's how I found it! I got minus 0.75 glasses
Just do endmyopia instead
@@k.f.r6674 you literally just had a ciliary lockup. Get rid of it by looking further and doing active focusing and mot spending time up close on screens and books
And just do endmyopia
Also, never wear your glasses up close (closer than your blur horizon, so for you, that’s a meter and a third) because that really messes your eyes up
@@nabranestwistypuzzler7019 now it's 1.75 😓. Can't do without glasses anymore
i always had perfect vision, then when i was around 12 i noticed that my vision was getting worse i couldn't see things further away so in around a year i went from perfect vision to .75 short sightedness
Same situation here. Im 13 btw.
Im 11 and i have 325 astigmatism in my glasses and 200 Farsightedness, life is great with online class (p.s our online class is 4-5 hours monday-friday and its been 2 years since i started xd)🥴
Should I get glasses? My eye grade is -1.00 and -0.75
I’m 12 rn and things aren’t getting worse but I can’t focus my eyes. Everybody else in my family has glasses and I think I am gonna need them too.
Same bro...that's freaking annoying.. Doctor told me to wear it all the time
I noticed that there was something wrong with my vision since my late 11's I thought it was normal but until I started getting terrible and I told my mom they did a preliminary on me and it said I had 20/20 perfect vision. but when I went to the eye doctor I was noticing it was pretty hard to read the boards on the screen they were also double too. Then the eye doctor said I had a stigmatism in needed glasses. I was too excited cuz I've always wanted glasses. 🤓🤓
Almost the same case except that I was blessed with 20/20 vision all my childhood it only started to get worse in my 20s.
Now I have 20/20 left and 20/40 right eye vision.
Omg I have astigmatism too! I thought my vision was normal but when last year I noticed that something isn't right. Although I can still see thing far away but not texts, especially the small ones. I couldn't tell my mom about it since she's gonna blame it on my phone even though I don't use it that much (and I sleep really early soo...) I'm just gonna wait till I grow up to tell them so scolding me would be useless (lol)
But hey, at least I'm doing things to take care of my eyes and hoping I'll improve.
@@barebarekun161 now I have around that amount in both eyes
@@aplant2133 Same it just started out as headaches and eyestrain coming up all the time
I'm 44 and have and still have 20/20 vision. No nearsightedness or farsightedness.
In my 30s I started developing a mild astigmatism in both eyes. The doctor gave me a mild prescription for glasses. I didn't need them, but they helped make things just a bit clearer.
7 years later the astigmatism had doubled in both eyes, and I now need to wear my glasses. Still no nearsightedness or far sightedness, or even much of the "old age eye syndrome" I don't need reading glasses if I have my astigmatism glasses on or hold the book close. Might need a reading lense added someday. Dr. says I'll probably never need lenses for nearsightedness or farsightedness, but the astigmatism will probably keep getting worse.
Mom: You don’t need glasses! You should be happy you don’t need them.
Me: Lets just see what the doctors say.
Eye doctor: You need glasses.
Mom: O_o
Lol
U forgot what my mom said "ITS CAUSE U USE THAT COMPUTER"
That is what happened to me but it was both of my parents
Lara_ 5253 my parents (even grandparents) knew it was genetics. Everybody in my family that is over the age of 18 (I am the youngest in my family tree to have glasses) has glasses
@@nonbinaryfirefly5792 The same thing, my parents have glasses and my older brother and sister also wear glasses, and when in the 5th grade they checked their eyesight at our school, it turned out that I could see badly too, and my mother and I went to the ophthalmologist who prescribed glasses for me.
I've never had glasses before, but today I went for a check up at the opticians as my friends had been bugging me to and I figured it was probably for the best (I've been moaning to them about not being able to see things for a while now lol). I've had above average vision all my life so I thought I'd just need eye drops or something. And then the dude put that lens machine thingy in front of my eyes. Fuck me. That's when I realised how bad my vision had got over the past two years, without me noticing. I forgot how clear images could be. Myopia.
Glasses are being made up right now, heh.
roadregu same happened with me! I was bugging my parents that I can't see properly but they every time dismissed me that's for like 2yrs and then my eyes were starting to hurt real bad i could not focus in sunlight and tears came like all through the day so finally i came to an eye doctor and he said applied these glasses on my eyes and boom! 😂 i literally bulged my eyes bc the colors seemed soo different. they were literally so bright
Alina Gohar ahh, yes! I noticed how vibrant colours became too - I'd never even seen greens like that before! I have moderate astigmatism too so everything just became muddy and blended into each other. My headaches just disappeared too. Haven't had one since. I'm in love with the world at the minute.
roadregu Same, I couldn't see so well and my friends were literally at me saying I need to see an Optician, I finally go and I assumed I'd get eye drops too since no one in my family wore glasses and I've been having perfect sign for a good while, then my optician gave me test glasses to see if I could read a screen and BOY did I have no idea how HD the world was
moved account what’s your “prescription”? You CAN IMPROVE YOUR VISION. check out Endmyopia.org XD
How old are you?
I can't see the board. It's blurry when i sit in the middle (my assigned place), and I'm basically blind if i sit further back. A girl with glasses in my class let me borrow her glasses, and instantly I could see. No fuzziness. Today I have an optician's appointment.
same, i tried my friend's glasses and could see perfectly but i think i need a higher perscription
I sometimes see like dots and blurry things and I always think it's my hair just blurry-ing me.
Or sometimes wrong words then get a what is thi
That worrying feeling when all of these things sound like you... *gulp*
Playing 24/7 Games ruining my eyes but I can't stop Wtffff help
Lenzina Peris yh. That fucked me up
Vnqy same me too, my grandpa told me every time when he saw me and said “Son, sit in the back off do you wanna get double eye lenses soon?” Sometimes he asked normally while other day he asked quite seriously and I kinda continued doing it.
playing wont make u.need glasses
2-3 years? With glasses I get my eyes checked every year!
I am a digital artist and recently I have been noticing that I see things a bit blurry and it's actually a noticable change, but I am waiting for the quarantine to get over.
So, I got glasses shortly after getting a smartphone for the first time.
I didn't even notice that my right eye was getting nearsighted till a classmate sitting in front of me blocked my left eye.
I didn’t realize that my vision was blurry until I put on my friends low prescription glasses and I was like “WOW IS THIS WHAT ITS LIKE TO SEE?!” 😂 My Mom made me an eye doctors appointment for this week and last time I went they gave me the wrong prescription. Apparently my eyes try to look two different ways a little bit ... it’s hard to explain. I’m also near sighted. My mom has -6 prescription, pretty sure I get my blindness from her.
Hello, I experience something similar like I have 2.25 in my left eye and 1.75 in right but when I used my friend's specs which had lower power I was actually able to more see clearly..do you thing by any chance my number could be reduced?
@@proofishere2012 so I actually found out about six months ago that I have POTS which is a form of dysautonomia and is what’s causing my vision to be blurry I got my eyes tested and I have 20/22 vision
Do you guys experience headaches or dizziness and nausea too? My left eye has poor eyesight and the other one has astigmatism. Sorry if my English is bad
I am now 37; I did have myopia in the past and had to wear glasses, but THANK GOD in 2019 I had the surgery (femto-lasic), and now I can see in the far distance much, much, much better without glasses than b4 the surgery. This has greatly improved the quality of life. With the surgery plus all the eye drops required after that it all costed me about 1560 USD (at the conversion rate of the month of surgery). I believe it is totally worth it!
I took my little daughter for an eye appointment, turns out she has mommy's bad eyesight eyes ❤️ she's so happy with her new glasses and they're really making a difference 😊🤓❤️ I think everyone should be tested, glasses are amazing and really helpful 😊
@@OriginalHandle. please get glasses. if you don't your vision will get worse.
@@Its.ok_im.here. alright
Me: I really think I need glasses..
My parents: Oh no you dont, you're too young to wear glasses. Wear one if you're around 40.
My eyes: Guess I'll just die
Maybe I'm stupid or something, but what does your eyes have to do with technology? Running out of ideas?
Dude it's 2016, tech everywhere now ;)
Hey it's 2017 literally technology is every were and everything!
Its 2018 dude.
its 2019 fam!
@Samuel original even sooner
I tried my friends glasses and everything was clear, she said she was minus 2, but my mom said I don't need glasses I can barely see on the white board🤸🏼♀️
Update?
All these hours of staring at my phone and laptop for school is probably why my once 20/20 vision is now like at 13/20
I just went to the eye doctor and now I’m getting glasses I’m so excited😊❤😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
My Daughter is 10 years old and she said 1 month ago ( late September) she could not see small words far back, like me and my mom. I said she may need glasses and she was ready to cry but asked me if we could see if she really needed glasses, so I took a cardboard box and wrote a word, she went up close and was ok, she went a little bit farther and was kind of ok, then she went farther and couldn't see so I said look at the neighbors pumpkins and said can you see them, she said no, when I take ny glasses off I cant see them either but when I do have them on I can see fine, so I said that we will go to the eye doctor in a week, and she cried. Here I am feeling bad because of my kid may need glasses watching this video. But im surprised she said kinds of glasses she wants so maby she getting better. Tomorrow we are going to the eye doctor. My husband doesn't know where its at neither do I so wish me luck for tomorrow.
Hope it went well, I took my little daughter to an appointment recently and turns out she has mommy's eyes 😊❤️🤓 she got glasses and she's so much happier and loves them. I think she looks so cute ❤️ hope everything went well on your side of things, you're a great parent for taking her! Glasses are an important thing in life. Me and my daughter wear them all the time, they're such a help ❤️ we love them!
I knew I needed glasses when I couldn’t read the board in 3rd grade and I was in the front row.
I really started noticing I couldn't distinguish words or numbers/prices up above on a sign without squinting or in a few cases just guessing the digit lol (5,or 8 or 3 usually) so yea I finally went in to get my eyes checked . During the test I noticed I had to close one eye at times to rely on the stronger eye . Results were Not as bad as I figured but she said I needed to use the glasses more often and not just as needed for night driving etc as eye drs said in the past .
Me: Can see objects near me :-:
Me: Can't see objects far from me ;-; (like the school bored)
Go to the optician
I’m near sighted and I remember in sixth grade, my friend finished his Julius Caesar speech and he did a great job. I was a little less than 20 feet from the board and I said to him in front of the whole class, “Daniel, I really like your presentation. Sounds like you worked really hard on memorizing it. I like how you used the board but I can’t tell what it says because my vision is terrible.” I got glasses a week later. About my speech: I had a panic attack in front of my class
Nearsighted woman
Saaaaaaammeeeeeeeee
Sameebruh😔
could someone please explain this to me? i could be watching tv and my eyes start to focus and get blurry then repeat and over and over. i have headaches when trying to read or watch. i try to focus but it doesnt help and gives me a huge headache. i try squinting a lot and i still cant get it through. even after all of this, my eyes get blurry and shaky for a while until a few minutes after when they tend to settle down. i squint a lot and cant read most of the time. i can only see dark colors when it comes to board writing, the lighter ones hurt my eyes and i cant do anything but try to squint. do i need glasses?
I tried my grandpa's glasses, it was so clear to me like I could see better. I was really shock at that time.
I think you grandpa has presbyopia glasses but presbyopia only affect those who are 40 or older
“Haha I don’t need glasses”
*has first 3 symptoms*
Me: 😀
*turns camera qualityup to 1080p*
I blink when I’m outside ITS BLURRY EVERY WHERE stays for like 7 minutes then stops then I’m sweaty so I put water on my face like 1 minute ago it’s blurry and i see rainbow on my words I’m writing now dr I forgot your name sorry please comment if I’m color blind or blind
my mom is taking ages to book an appointment for me and i've told her many times. might as well do it myself at this point 😐😐 i need glasses now :/ because it's been months
UPDATE : I GOT THEMMM FINALLY! :D bruh i sounded so ungrateful
........
I NEED TO GET MY EYES TESTED
Yeah me to
Me too. I've never, as far as I can remember, gotten my eyes checked. I should ask my mother...
Honestly I already know I need glasses and I already told my parents and my dad was angry because he thought it was because of my phone and he told my mom to book an appointment with the family doctor but she forgot and now I'm afraid to say that I need glasses a second time because my dad might give me less phone time and will give me a half-hour lecture on how I need to stop using my phone too much
I'm kinda like you! I know I need glasses I told my dad he also got mad and knew bc it was my phone.. then I told my mom she got very mad at me since when I saw like 9 or 10 they kept telling me "stop talking electric devices to much!" "Take a rest!" "You will regret it" and ofc I didn't believe it or care...
but now.. my eyes keep getting worse and worse!! I'm scared I can't see through 6 inches.... I'm trying to rest my eyes and not take the electric devices but it's just that.. I have nothing else to do.. yes, I did see stuff u can on the internet.... But not everyone can do all of those- some people have other problems through their lives. I hope u understand what I said- rn my eyes are really blurry that I'm almost getting a heart attack looking at far and a bit close things... I know for fact I'm getting blind before I turn 13.. 😩 I can't imagine what will happen when that day comes.. but I know nothing good will happen...
@@meshozi well just so you know I told my mom a second time without telling my dad that I needed glasses and now I have glasses. So maybe you should try telling your parents again because when I put on my glasses for the first time I said "wow I can see each leaf on the tree!"
@@Kabooom22 i did try telling them more than a time but i didn't say ''i need glasses'' i tell them to take me to the hospital to do a check up on my eyes and they kept telling me: ''they will tell you to wear glasses!'' ''your eyes are fine.'' ''you don't need glasses." and honestly idk what to do now
@@JacksWorldAnimations well can you see the white board in school at the third row?
@@JacksWorldAnimations yeah you probably need glasses and it's probably because your family all have glasses too.
I'm 15 years old and I always look at screens from my smartphone everytime. Now, I have myopia or astigmatism (I don't know which one of them I'm experiencing, both perhaps.) I'm afraid to tell about it to my parents. I've begun eye exercises now, I hope my vision would improve.
Better to start wearing glasses and save yourself a headache later on in life.
Why are you scared to tell your parents about your eyesight? I dont think eye exercises really does improve vision, you should get glasses cuz it can actually imrpove your vision, its been 1 year since your comment i hope u got one
did the exercise improve your vision?? i think i also need glasses
My mum noticed I needed glasses when in was 4-5, when I had to sit really close to the tv since I couldn’t see, she would always tell me to sit on the couch but I could never see from there. From then I started wearing glasses, at first my eyesight was very weak and couldn’t use the metal frames cuz of how thick the lens is. Now I can wear metal frames and it got a lot better.
Same 😂except I was 7 when I got my first glasses. Nowadays I can’t do anything without them
Going for a eye visit tomorrow 🙂
Not sure do I even have problems or not...I feel I can see clearly...but at the same time I am feeling that I can't read medium small latter from distance which I was abled to see before...
@@Islay830 no, surprisingly doctor said I don't need glasses 😐
How lucky
I look at something and when I look at something else immediately it takes me like 10 seconds for it to focus correctly, and i can see everything fine, just not things from far away at all
For whatever reason I can see clearly with or without glasses. I don't have glasses and do very well on eye tests. I've tried my moms glasses and my gfs glasses and my vision might go blurry for a moment when i choose a point to focus on then adjusts until I see sharply. They would just make things look zoomed out a bit. Stronger glasses might be a different story though. Dont know how well I'd do on a vision test with them on but for me things were pretty sharp. But for years now I've begun to have some visual disturbances like visual snow and perceptual changes and my vision is just full of extra noise but I still do well on vision tests, with both eyes and with either eye closed.
I've never been to a real eye doctor because my parents believe I'm perfect, but I need glasses really bad.
Iam too
hey anybody in the comment section plz answer:
so there is a range from about 3 to 15 feet where things are blurry but any father or closer it's mainly clear. do i need glasses for this or do i need reading glasses? plz help
Sometimes my sight just blackens and gets dark and then slowly after some seconds it returns in Weird black spots but i Always disapper after i while. This happens often. Is this a sign that i need glasses? Sorry for bad English
I'm going to get my eyes checked in a few days. Both of my parents needed glasses, but my mom got a surgery on her eyes so she doesn't need them any more. So eventually I knew I would need them. I can't see anything that well even if it's just like 4 feet away from me. If it's 6 feet, then I'm as blind as a bat. And my eyes are constantly hurting.
@@JacksWorldAnimations yeah you should probably get that checked out. I needed glasses and it was worth it.
@@JacksWorldAnimations the only thing that's really frustrating about glasses is that I find them impossible to clean. And you have to clean them a lot. It probably doesn't help that I am in a humid state.
@Afnaan oh wow. 😂
I'm going to a eye doctor today because my vision flashes at one side and it blurs so badly I get a headache
I'm only a teenager, thanks for helping me not sound dumb in there
How's it now
Honestly, I want glasses cause it is so sharper when i try them on cuz I gotta lean toward the board at school or go up to the board to see what's on there :p
My eyes are not blurry but the edges of horizontal things i see double and it doesn't happen vertically and i can read clear what should i do should i get glasses? pls help
I've been to an optician and she told me that i need glasses even thought i passed the eye test and i didn't had problems reading or reading from the board, i went to a new doctor and she told me that my eyes are fine and that i don't need glasses.
I agree with the part where he said that most people would start needing glasses in their 40s. I'm 41 and I'm about to get my first pair of glasses.
ive lived with my glasses since 8 its been 4-5 years I never take it off except if I was goin to sleep or swim , sometimes people with good vision that dont need glasses some of them such in school laugh at me and im used to it already....
I was in denial that I had vision problem for years, I just recently had them, now I can say that wearing glasses isnt that bad at all..:3
Lets see what my symptoms are?
1. Can’t read the board in school (I sit in front row)
2. Can’t read the street sign from the other side of the road
3. I have to squint my eyes to look on a sunny day
What if I just can’t see anything that’s like not very far away from me
Like the words on the blackboard and I’m sitting at the back of the classroom, do I need glasses?
I wear glasses I can see better and more clear I was scared to tell my parents but I’m fine and happy now 😁
Thanks for motivation 🥺

I have always had eye problems with congenital cataracts, nystagmus, microcornea, aphakia, and glaucoma. I have to take for eye drops for glaucoma to control my pressure so I don't go blind. I've been to the eye doctor a lot as a kid to an adult. I will always need to go to the eye doctor because I have glaucoma and I have to keep treating it and making sure it doesn't progress and take my vision.
*it's always been like this. I thought it was normal*
well i was looking at my phone suddenly my vision just kept going crazy blurry and like curtains that are white blocking me to see sometimes. does any of you think i should wear glasses?
I have trouble focusing its like when you're adjusting the focus on the camera and you cant get that right spot.
im 18 and i had a farsight problem. i have it since i was 13. i found out how to deal with it without using glasses. i just have to point 2 finger right next to my eye and kinda adjust it until u can see it clearly. its kinda weird but it works
Same bruh😂it works also for me😸
Thank God! Idk but just randomly I had some problems with my eyes like idk I was just not able to open my eyes (they were because I was reading after months 😂) and I thought that I have to glasses but then I looked up for this video and then I realised none of these symptoms are happening with me! All thanks to this video! :)
I don’t know why but I keep questioning my eyesight. I will sometimes find it very difficult to focus clearly on certain things. Usually screens are the worst but it can happen in other places too. I have a teacher who seems to be writing small to the point I’m not sure what he's writing on the board. I am also not sure if having a small focus point is normal. Basically, if I do need glasses, it would only be making easier what little bit I do struggle with. However, I might just be paranoid or not getting enough sleep or something. I don’t really know. I haven’t had a proper extensive eye test done probably ever. All I’ve ever done was the E chart and that was last done properly a few years ago.
Omg same
Mine's not blurry or anything, it's just like things and words shake or doubles. So my parents aren't really concerned
I had glasses before and u need a new one but now I'm curious of other reasons cause now if I'm not focusing or I am focasin on a area pi would sometimes see flashes of light it most often happens during the night is there a reason why this is so?
I'm so scared I might get blind . coz non of my family members take me seriously. I'm just confused on the way I should tell them so they can take me seriously.
Holy crap. I have trouble reading the board at school and I also have that weird flashing lights at the corner of my eyes! I always thought it was just normal or my eyes are just having trouble focusing. So does this mean I need glasses?
*edit: hi yes i just got my annual eye checkup and it turns out my right eye has a terrible astigma (167 out of 180 or something) and my left eye is just gradually loosing distance. the astigma on my right eye is from a injury i have gotten a few years ago! anyways i finally just now bought my first pair of glasses and i can finally see far awayyyyy 3/31/22*
I think I might need glasses, I even have trouble seeing big text sometimes
Umm I want ask a question I am 16 Year old and out of a sudden I can't focus on anything like if I am reading and a text on my computer and whenever I try to focus on it the text become burry than if I blink it isn't burry anymore I can't focus on any which is not move like a text book .so do I need glasses??
What if it is not blurry but it makes you feel dizzy or makes you feel collapse??
I’ve had glasses since I was 7, I’m long-sighted and waiting for my next appointment on Thursday, as my other glasses broke🙈
Omg I always see a light in the corner of my eyes also I can’t see that well
I went for an eye test yesterday then after that I saw that I needed power and I got the power of -2.25 and I was like I can finally see and no one believed me untill my teacher told my parents I could not see the board
I recently noticed that u can't read things far away like i used to. It's all blurry and i'd have to squint to see clearly. Is this normal?
I'm gonna have my eyes tested tomorrow. I'm 19 and in college. My vision is quite blurry. I have a hard time reading and all
I tried my moms glasses on as a joke then I realized I could see much better and I didn’t wanna take them off-
I normally have a small black dot fly past my eye and I normally strain my eyes a lot

Same
Probably just a blind spot
Same
But they just go away when i blink and then come back days later maybe and then i blink againg hahaha
I have -4.25 vision. I can't see shit.
-4.25 is not that bad, mine is almost -7 and i'm 13 lol
That sucks. I'm only a few years older but mine was not nearly as bad back then. Still, I have to be roughly less than a foot to see everything on the TV, and I've adapted to playing sports with my vision (just looking at the shapes) but depth perception is really hard to grasp without my contacts. I can't imagine having -7.00 vision
Pusheen the cat you can improve your vision, check out Endmyopia.org .. it’s never too late. Mine was like 7.75 ._.
Christian Bennett I have -2.75-ish
2.75+ in one 1 eye im 12 lol
I see one black tiny dot floating in my vision. It start 6 days ago and i still can see that. It happened after i come from cycling. What should i do? When it will gone?😕 i start to overthinking about it(
I have glasses but before i get it or having a bad vision, i just realize a long timeago that our blackbored on our school are such a blurry, so i talked to my mom and she said that im just overacting, so i have a blurry eyesight for a month and cause of a low grades, then i heard a news that my father geeting check upfor his eyes, so i tell my dad that i wanna check up too, so they agree, and my mom feel guilt because of what she said to me that im just acting
Yes and also one of the most misdiagnosed/miscalculated things is the whole medical field is the dioptre. So we go see an ophthalmologist, they observe our eyes through a device, and 80% of them (at least) do not give;
a) enough time for your eye apparatus to adapt
b) different amounts of time for each of your eyes to adapt,
resulting in a very wrong dioptre. And this is just one of the reason why you get prescribed eyeglasses which do not actually correct your eyesight, but in fact worsen it. So you go again after the 6 months and similar thing happens... and so forth into the vicious circle.
Ironically one of the worst environmental influences on your eye sight are corrective glasses.
Save up for a laser surgery, or for a couple of top notch ophthalmologists who are confident enough to charge you like 2000 pounds for an eye exam. Because these people know if they get it wrong they can get sued up to fourth generation of their successors (a hyperbole, obviously) and will thus do anything humanely possible to accurately access your visual acuity. They will also be more than likely to have the top notch medical equipment which involves minute human engagement, on both sides (Dr and the patient) which eliminates subjective biases that ruin the diagnosis.
So If you can't belt it, just keep going on checkups to make sure your retina's ok and in place, and that you don't have the Glaucoma or some overt infection. Glasses don't seem to "comply" to the "Primum no nocere" guideline the wast majority of time.

Me: Do I?
*looks at surroundings to check if eyesight is ok
When you already have glasses you still watch... 😂
I miss my old perfect eyes its been 7 days (dec 30, 2020) since I realized I needed glasses. what a sad day to end 2020 :(
Haha same, I noticed I couldn’t see around that time too
Did u get them?
im 14 and in all my years i've never been to the eye doctor. i've only done eye tests at school where you cover one eye and read whats on the board
I got in trouble for not being able to read the board. The teacher called on me and I was like, "Yeah, um.... I can't see the board?" and she was like, "Why? are you blind? Why don't you have glasses?"
welp, after two years of thinking this is normal, i go on wednesday to get my glasses😂
So you thought you could see normal but in reality you needed glasses?
I have very great eyesight but since I was 9 I really need them but I do not want anyone that I have poor eyesight

I see things that say if u watch tv for hours in the dark ur eyesight will worsen, I don’t have glasses but I go on my phone and iPad a lot in the dark (while I’m in bed) should I be worried? Or is it not the same thing as watching tv in the dark?
I am 46 and still dont have any issues with close reading (had lasik to correct myopia in 2003). Let to check my eyes and the numbers which were printed out from the refractometer, were exactly the same as in 2004.
