Funny, my eyes have been going too. It happens randomly, sometimes in a book, sometimes on the computer screen. I'm getting mine tested soon.

Probably eye strain. That's how mine started. I was reading a copy of IT and the text was really tiny. Really screwed with my eyes and now I have to wear glassed full time or I get bad headaches.

You should make sure you have proper lighting and take frequent breaks when youre reading or on the computer.

I started wear glasses when I was four and my parents finally let me get contacts in eighth grade and have been wearing them since. My vision is so bad that I can't see past my nose and anything that is in focus I have to close one eye to see otherwise it's double-vision because it's just too close to my eyes.

I want to get LASIK, but my optometrist says that you should wait until you are 30, since then your eyes will stop changing and you will only need to do the surgery once (sometimes you can only do it once because of the thickness of your lens so you have to make it count).

I can't imagine waking up and being able to see, it would be such a miracle to me to be able to that. I have to keep everything on my nightstand and around my bed in the same place or I'll trip or can't find things.

Been wearing glasses & contacts for a long time. I think mine is mostly due to the fact that I unloaded a can of RAID in my eyes when I was 2. I wanted to watch the spray come out of the nozzle (I actually remember wanting to see it, but not much else)

It seems my eyesight is going too,I'm currently learning to drive and on my last lesson the instructor asked me if I could read the number plate of a car 60 ft away,Nope not a chance.40 ft away?Still no.20 ft away?Nope,but I could now see the car to which the number plate was attached!Anyway I'm in for an eye test on Saturday,my next lesson is on Thursday at 6pm so if your in the area and see a red Corsa moving erratically give it a wide berth :)

My eyes are that bad, too, Noir. I've been wearing glasses since second grade. Of course, now I wear bifocals :(

Yeh, I have been getting headaches lately. And my eyes feel like they're being gently squeezed, which hurts.
