We have them annually at work, last year everyones seemed to have gotten worse, I suggested it might have had something to do with the mobile van being set up in the carpark near a where trucks frequent a lot and right on a bend.
We organised the dude to re-test everyone on the other side of the site and there was a dramatic improvement.
I have noticed with age my peepers are getting worse rapidly, it's mainly trying to read animation on the TV, the score is always a blur.

New Years Eve 16 of us did our pub crawl, I'm the only one who didn't need glasses to read menu's, drink boards etc and all of those bastards are gunning for me to go blind like they all have. What are mates for?

Surely you were blind by the last pub?

My missus has had glasses for years. Ages ago, in the tube TV days, the main TV was starting to go and the edges of the very top were blurry, exactly where the scores are. The missus took off her glasses to clean then and said, damn, need to get them checked again.
I think I let it ride for about a day before telling her the TV was faarked, not her eyes.

My eyesight is weird, I can read small print and my computer screen or newspaper is clear as day, trying to read what number horse won or deciphering the footy score in the corner of the screeen and I'm sll at sea.

May have had this discussion on here previously, but do you find pints knock you around more than cans or echoes?
If I'm heading out for a get together or something I'd be lucky to have any change from a slab that I've taken there, sometimes I'm hooking into the hosts supply for the last hour or so but sometimes 8-10 pints in a pub will have me glowing.
