    Mild Myopia (-.25 to -2.0)
    Until recently I had pretty decent vision and had a weak prescription, but for whatever reason in the past two years my eyesight has gone downhill, especially at night. Debating about getting the LASIK surgery.

    I think I'm a LASIK candidate but many folks I know that have done LASIK end up having to go back to corrective lenses down the road.

    That’s what I’ve heard as well, but hopefully when that day comes I’ll have entered my Golden Girl era anyway…I’m gonna rock those sweet bifocals with the chain!

    Was @GrandpaSankey at 20/400. Then did the Lasik about 18 years ago.

    Now 20/20 at distance but have to wear cheaters for reading and wear midrange correction for computer work but that was a known trade-off. Worth it.

    I was like 40/400 or some legally blind shit almost. Had LASIK about 8 years ago. Best money I’ve ever spent although my eyes are much more sensitive to light than they used to be but I just wear shades everywhere

    I wear reading glasses like a grandpa, perched on the end of the nose.

    Have no idea if that myopic or the other.

    Right eye was 20/20 & left eye was 20/15 until about a year ago. I recently bought a pair of cheaters and have been using them on occasion.

    It took until age 52 for my eyes to go downhill. Not bad.

    Do you wear your sun glasses at night?
