Kirk is NEARSIGHTED?

[Elder Knight]

I do believe he's bifocal.

I do believe he's bifocal.

Predictably non-occularly commital.

 

[gimpy117]

you mean he actually isn't superman?

I can never look at him the same way again; I admit it.

I can, but mostly because my eyesight is about 20/10.

damn you got me...I'm 20/13

 

[Yeoman Randi]

So he needs glasses. As long as he can find me, i'm happy.

 

[Chrisisall]

damn you got me...I'm 20/13

20/15 here. 20/10 in my youth.

LOL! You all have the eyes of eagles compared to me. I'm so nearsighted I can't tell what color someone's eyes are 3' away from me with my glasses off.

And I can't wear contacts.

I can so relate to myopic actors.

omg! i cant tell if a person even HAS eyes from 3 feet away. I think my vision is like 20/200. Thank goodness science figured out a way to make the lenses of glasses so thin. Otherwise, i'd be truly be fodder for the wolves....i'd be in coke bottle glasses!

I used to have something like 20/10 or 20/15, but that went south when I hit my late 30s. Now my distance vision is still decent but I can't read anything without glasses any more unless it's in huge letters.



I ran across an interview with Chris Pine containing one question which sorta fits here:

Why does your character [in Princess Diaries 2] wear glasses instead of contact lenses in the movie?

CHRIS PINE: I know, everybody has been asking that. I tried but it was so dry that winter that my eyes got really red and that doesn't look too sexy on camera. I had to take them out and just pop eye drops all the time and kind of learn how to act without seeing.

I'm near-sighted. I can see you but it's a little blurry. I'm pretty bad. In 3rd grade I had to get glasses and I cried for days because I thought I was going to be a dork. But glasses make people very, very cool (laughing).

LOL, that's SO funny- I just, out of pure coincidence, picked a truth to make my satire with.

Twenty-five years ago my vision was 20/450 - it ain't improved since then.

If anything happened to my glasses - I couldn't drive, walk around without running into things etc.

You're right about thin lenses - thank goodness for them so we don't have to wear coke bottles.

M'Sharak, thanks so much for that link; I hadn't seen that one before.
