You can put a pattern in a pie plate at 50 feet with a pistol?? Only when his 20/15 vision is improved with his shooting glasses and he's shooting with a gun rest. uh... I have 20-10 vision... And my eye doc can't believe it seeing I'm 58 yr's old. "Glasses? We don't need no stinkin' glasses!" I was amazed that my eyesight hasn't gone south due to age. I'll be 65 this year. When I had the bout with shingles last year my left eye was affected but my vision was 20/15 in it and 20/20 in my right eye. 20/15 is actually better vision than 20/20. Tim's 20/10 is even better still. I haven't had them checked since I recovered from the shingles thing, so my left eye may have changed. Even though the eye tests are good, I still occasionally need reading glasses for up close stuff, but it's more dependent on how tired I am. My right eye (shooting eye) is my good eye with 20/10 my left eye isn't so great. it's 20/20 Terrible. Keep it closed. :-) My wife gets ****ed at me because her eyes are like 20/100 or something. Can't pass the driver's license exam without her glasses. My eyes when I was younger than 40 were 20/5 and 20/10. I hunk years of working with VT-52 and other crappy terminals ruined the eyes. After my cataract surgery I am 20/25 in the fixed eye. Still need readers for books and computers. Bill, my wife has suffered the same fate. Besides poor eyesight running in her family, Years of staring at a computer screen at work took a lot of it's toll. The most damage was probably caused by the 'green' or 'orange' screens back in the day. I remember working with one of her early computers, and it wasn't 5 minutes before my eyes were hurting. I kept darkening the screen until it was almost out, but to no avail. Glad those days are over. |
