I'm so near sighted it's pretty hilarious. Everything is blurred beyond my elbows, though my eyesight hasn't gotten worse in the past four years coincidentally, when I started getting into bullet hell games.

I've had to wear glasses since I was 6 or 7, both my parents and my brother wear glasses. It pisses me off when people see glasses as some sort of terrible affliction that seriously hampers your life. I'm looking at you, laser eye surgery adverts.

After wearing glasses for so long, they've pretty much become an extension of my face. I don't notice that they're there, I don't feel them there unless I concentrate on them and I honestly look better with them on.

There's a difference between straining and damaging, yet people get them confused pretty often. You won't damage your eyes looking at a monitor in the dark, but I wouldn't suggest it anyway. You know how your iris expands and contracts depending on the level of light you're exposed to? If you're in a dark room, your irises are having to adjust far more often than they should be.
