[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 442803, member: 439"] My solution? Lasik. Seriously. I was pretty bad off in the vision arena (I couldn't see the wall, much less the E). I'd worn soft contacts for years, and the capillaries of my eyes were coming to the surface, meaning they were starved for oxygen, even with the soft contacts. I was getting to the point on not being able to wear contacts, and my eyes were so bad that would mean loosing all my peripheral vision wearing just glasses. So I saved and had Lasik done about 12 years ago. Had to have the second generation laser (my eyes dilated more than 5mm) so it was a little more expensive, but worth EVERY penny. I "lost" my close up vision to be 20/20 far away (I had the choice and took that). I'm 20/15 far, and I only need magnifiers (just drug store variety) when doing something like threading a needle. I can read most everything without help except in very low light. [/QUOTE]
