Glasses never slowed my roll really, I'll have to say I'm probably dating more since I started wearing them all the time, my confidence and ego is just much larger than it. Most of the name calling would be from my friends, the girls think I'm gentle and cool until they know the real sweet_gala

I'm an engineer as well yet yo have any problems with my glasses , when I'm doing any dangerous work o tend to wear CPE glasses over them and I have Edgar Davids type googles when playing sports , I had a mocular hole vitrectomy done in 2013 so I'm very careful with my left eye.

Guy such is life what can you do. I'm concerned about Nigerian employers and this their glasses issue, been thonking of relocating for a while now

[size=15pt]MODS PLEASE BAN THIS GUY.. HE IS A 419[/size]

literarymathy:
Please someone should help me out here. Why is it thought by the bulk of people that those on glasses must be intelligent? This is not only a Nigerian thing but it's global. Everywhere you go, people think that once you use glasses, you must be smart! Even though I don't use glasses, I fall into that belief too. Once I see someone using, I think the person is serious minded. American movies also portray that stereotype so geeky brainy glass wearers.

laykorn:


Hehe. Somehow, the glasses was part of the imagined image. You remember? I'm getting it complete, now.

Almost albino-ish in colour. Wears glasses.

Hehehhehehe.

rexbuton:


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

Eye surgery, whatever kind scares the hell out of me...... I don't know why I just cringe at the thought of it, too delicate for me

Life-Saving Stem Cells - Discover, Learn, Share
Nearly everyone inside and outside of the medical and scientific community agrees that stem cell research represents one of the most exciting and promising frontiers for treating people with a myriad of diseases and conditions. Stem cell research and treatments represent perhaps mankind's greatest opportunity to fulfill that ancient call to "heal the sick," relieve suffering and improve the quality of life for untold millions of people.

This website provides scientific facts and concise information for those of us who are not scientists, researchers or medical professionals. You will learn answers to questions like ..."Who is benefitting from stem cell research and therapies today?" and "What types of stem cells are working?" In addition, basic questions such as "What is a stem cell?" "Why do we need stem cell research?" are answered.

The video patient profiles featured on this site emphasize ADULT stem cell advances with the goal of informing and the hope of inspiring you to take action. These real-life stories represent a small sampling of people and the many diseases and conditions now being helped by adult stem cells naturally found in the human body. Stem Cell Research Facts illustrates how current adult treatments and therapies directly impact the lives of patients and their families today - as opposed to debating the merits of other types of stem cell research.

We invite you to discover, learn and share the incredible possibilites of stem cell research. We welcome your feedback and encourage you to return for the latest developments in the world of stem cell research. Thank you!

is like 419 flow in ur vein dats why is easy for you to mention it.did you watch the video testimony? If yes, does it look like fake to you? Ur problem is u dnt knw anytin and u dnt even knw that u dnt knw anytin, u tink u knw everytin.ur ignorance deserve an award. Its very clear u lack the mental ability to differentiate bw genuine tin and fake one.for d last time dnt qoute me again,.if you hav any problem with my initial claim, then do ur research befor u draw a conclusion. www.stemtech.com

timpaker:


Heheheheheeheh. My guy I'm not a puzzle ooooo. You're just bn hierophantic.

rexbuton:


I don't blame you.. I blame the mods who have refused to ban you for posting wrong information.. i've read through all your sites that you post and i've not found any where they say they do stem cell enhancement for the eyes. You need to google about the condition you claim to treat first before all these bull shít.. and your english also proves that you're just a street or bus charlatan who probably sells Mustard seed.

Don't let law enforcement catch you sha..

GENERAL PuBLIC should take note of this scammer.. Read on stem cell technology and weigh it against his posts

sweetgala:


You sleep and wake up and it's all done, I would not recommend you watch any YouTube videos before going in cause you'll definitely change your mind.

Mine was for mocular hole repair so needles were stuck in the eye to remove the scaring and then a gas bobble was injected into the eye.

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!

aimuan:
how can you just draw a conclusion like dat with research? Hw can u say I made it up? Made it up for what? Pls visit www.stemcellreseachfacts.org

rexbuton:

OKAY..
E GO LONG SHA.. I'll use simple terms

WHen a normal/good eye looks at objects, the image falls exactly on the retina ( imagine the retina to be a screen)

when the eye is too long/ too short or the lens is too weak/too strong, the image will fall either in front of or behind the retina.. this is the case in simple myopia or hyperopia depending on the length and corresponding strength of the lens.

As for the cylinder, imagine that the persons cornea ( in front of the eye) is not regular or curved properly, so the light will be refracted at different points, so instead of the image to fall in one place inside the eye, it falls on more than one place (usually 2, >2 is very rare). so this is where the cylindrical lens comes in. a normal sphere lens has its power equal on all parts of the lens but cyl has power on only one part, so it is like a half lens.. we would use a normal sphere lens to push the first image to the retina, and use a cyl lens to push the other image, because the cyl is like a half lens, it pushes the other half image to join it's brother on the retina to form a point focus.. we cannot use two sphere lenses because it will push thee already settled half part away from the retina while bringing its brother there..

I hope i've not erred in trying to make it very simple sha..

codedflowz:
I have a question though
My parents don't have any eye defects... Even my grandparents didn't have any before they passed away

How I come I am short sighted?

Anybody

nedu2000:
short-sightedness is also caused by environmental factors too not just genetic

incrediblestev:
trust me babe, if you have used glasses for the better part of your life, you will definitely have issues with them. How long have you been wearing glasses.

Caracta:

optm:

nedu2000:
reading,writing and using a computer. I just saw an article that says that children who spend more time in outdoor activities are less likely to be short-sighted http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Short-sightedness/Pages/Causes.aspx
