Is the leaves thing common for people who get glasses for the first time? That was the most intense sight for me at 25 years old, was seeing the individual leaves on a tree like 50 feet away
Yes. Going from thinking “yeah, that’s a tree ofc” to talking like a paid shill to everyone I know “I CAN SEE EACH LEAF!!! ITS LIKE I’M SEEING IN HD”
Lmao like we’re selling snake oil
For me it wasnt be cause I had heard that so many times from others before I started regularly wearing them. I think for me it was seeing how bad a bunch of my old games actually look. I can still take em off and make em look good again
Ol’ CRT eyes here
I remember really, really wanting glasses because I thought they were cool. I thought it was cool to see two “different” worlds. I even tried to lie on a eye exam.
Well, ask and you shall receive I guess.
One of the really hard habits to break was always looking at my feet when walking
It was primarily because seeing further than that was pretty rough
Though the leaves being back on the trees was pretty great too
People meters away have faces
I was shocked to learn how far away people can read and recognize my face. Much was explained that day.
“Wait. I can see where they’re looking at from this far away. That means… Oh man.”
Like your first fart or boner after cochlear implants.
B-boner? Tf kinda noise is your boner making?
What, you can’t hear it? I hate to say it, but you might want to get your ears checked. Everyone else can hear it, people around you have probably just been courteous enough not to mention it.
It sounds like this.
I found out I needed glass when I tried my friend’s glasses for fun and saw better with them. Twas very depressing actually, realizing I’ve seen stuff wrong for so many years. Things is I only have -1, so it’s not bad enough to significantly affect daily life, tho it is significant enough in how I experience views. Now when I travel I always have a pair with me for whenever I truly want to enjoy the sight of something. Otherwise I avoid my glasses like the plague.
Also -1 here. I was convinced throughout my studies that my university was being super cheap on the projectors, getting always some shitty, soft ones. Ranted about it the whole time. Wish it was the beamers.
Mrw trees have leaves
Yep, I always thought the cartoon renditions of a green blob on top of a brown stick were more realistic than they are.
