• I don't have a prescription, I just don't think my eyesight is 100% so want to see if I've killed my eyeballs during lockdown.

  • It’s your age. The cornea hardens as you get older and your vision starts to impair. In and around 40 is the most common age for this to happen.

  • My distance vision went to shit when I had a glaucoma test from some old school optometrist who pressed a popsicle stick against my lenses as part of the process. My eyes were tearing for months afterwards, so no, they're not all the same.

  • Isn't that when stuff close up is harder to see? Mine seems to be the opposite - road signs being blurrier than I remember them being and taking longer to focus.

  • It’s your age.

    This sucks.

    I spent a fortune on fancy pants occupational lenses (and new frames) back in May last year, and I'm already having to go back to get a new prescription, as my vision has deteriorated noticeably in that time.

    On the upside, age related deterioration is apparently not a linear thing, and happens in fits and starts.
