Bollinger:


I can't believe i have to explain this;

Point 1. Ever heard of Lasik or PRK?

Point 2. Seriously? you missed a romantic moment because of glasses. If you have to wear glasses to kiss a lady then you are blind.

Point 3. You probably bought your glasses under the bridge at ojuelegba. Prescribed glasses meant for only you should not be uncomfortable. I wear glasses, so i know.

Point 4. Now i know this is MOD story. It's all made up.

Point 5. More confirmation that it's a MOD story.

nedu2000:
I've worn glasses for well over a decade,it started with 3 diopter of short-sightedness(-3)from which it got worse (-6) by 1999,it has remained so ever since.It hasn't been easy and I sure would like to see the world in HD in my lifetime and not this'. 'NTA' standard my eyes offer.
My Perils include:

1)SPORTING DRAWBACK: if you think zinedine Zidane,Eden Hazard,leo Messi are the most creative footballers then you've never seen me play,but with my eyesight I had to cool down on my football career.Infact in my University days I rarely get chosen in teams

2)ROMANTIC DRAWBACKS: There were times a got a 'moment' with some hot chics and as I was closing in for a french kiss my glasses sets up a awkward moment instead and my chance is gone! The glasses also give me this "he's cute but he's not man enough since he wears glasses!!" from girls.

3 )DOMESTIC/EVERYDAY CHALLENGES: I can't fall asleep swiftly without looking for a means to drop my glasses somewhere,if I use contacts my sparkling eyes turn red the next day,if it's raining/foggy my glasses becomes completely misty and unlike windshields,spectacles don't come with wipers

4)MISCELLAENOUS: job opportunities-i studied civil engineer but I have fewer opportunities to prove myself as a good site engineer due to stereotypes

* intimidation- I was driving around Orile in Lagos when one lanky dude tried extorting money from me,merely because he felt I was weak/gentle not until I broke his nose did he realise I wasn't weak, had to spend N2500 on his treatment

Nairalanders please is there any sort cure for shortsightedness? I heard of many side-effects in relation to the laser option!

dollarlander:



Bros, go to ago iwoye in Ogun state. There's a Catholic church establishment that has state of the earth facilities for rues treatment. It has been there since 70s and Catholic church has been funding the facilities to the latest obtainable any where.

The issue is that few Nigerians know about it.

God leads you and take you out of this partial blindness.

Crystal5:

Short-sightedness. I try not to use it all the time but it's hard to do without it. Do you use glasses?

I am astigmatic on one eye and short sighted on the other. I understand how you feel because I passed thru that phase. However, Mike is stubborn and he ditched his glasses by faith. I use my eyes well these days I drive without glasses, read without them, do my CAD designs, Nairaland and other online activities without them, I visit sites without them. I have faith you'll ditch your '2nd pair of eyes'

your ophthalmologist is wrong.. contact lenses are better for higher powers such as yours.. moving the CL to the corneal plane would reduce the convergence effect of the high minus on the visual system..
secondly, contact lenses would be more suitable if the powers are different with up to -1.50DS or contains cylinder power of up to -1.25DC, as the CL would reduce the chances of different image sizes in both eyes(anisometropia).. summary be say, CL is better for you.. go and get one from a reliable practitioner

Though I don't like the many questions people often ask and the occasional 'sorry' and 'Eiyah' for my mind I always be like, "make una free me abeg"

It's not about the glasses; it's about you.

I don't believe the job opportunity part. Even blind people have jobs.

I use glasses and I've never been treated differently.

Do you use the geeky-albert-Einstein glasses with rounded rims or the funky-asha-on-fire ones?

billy187:


Maybe so: but his opthalmologist might be right though. Maybe he has an allergy, a bad tear break-up time or is even predisposed to keratitis- all bad news for a contact lens wearer.
