Walking without glasses from -1 to -12

It’s impossible to simulate what myopia looks like--especially in 2D. Objects up close remain clear, but things get gradually more blurry the farther away. And it isn't a soft blur like an out-of-focus lens. It's a harsher, fractured, distorted kind of blurry.

now I understand why people sometimes mistake bags lying around or trash on the ground for dogs 😅 and why they don’t say hi to people they know when they walk past them

If my eyesight gets this bad I’m learning braille 😬

-7.00 to -8.00 here. I can confirm that the world is basically just colors without my glasses.

Me, a -2, watching -4 without my glasses on

Now add astygmatism on top of that.

Prescription lenses are wheel chairs for the eyes. The more you wear them, each year the eye doctor prescribes a stronger prescription. This increases eye strain. Better to take them off, and try to see with your own eyes. Research Dr Bates to learn how to relax your eyes.

Lol, they skipped a few. I’m -9.25 in my right eye and -10.75 in my left eye and I have astigmatism. Yes, it’s as bad as depicted, I walk into walls without my glasses. 😆

This is so true! Shame it does not show people’s faces - how close you have to get to recognise someone!

Over 700 years ago glasses hadn't been invented, that would have been tough, especially for the younger generation.

im in between -4 and -5 and i think there is to much detail. i cant see shit lol

I’m at -1.5 and it seems to me that I’m blind. Definitely won’t drive my car without my glasses.

I’m at a -4 I can’t see signs or faces clearly without my glasses.

This is accurate people. I'm about -5.5 naturally. My lenses fix that so I'm fine, but I'm not "blind" without glasses, but small things like glasses are harder to spot on the ground than larger, opaque objects. Squinting can reduce the number by about 1 to 2 points.

also turn deaf at -12

-12 in one eye and -11.50 in the other. My contacts are medically necessary because my glasses are heavy as hell and you a headache in under an hour

Add in astigmatism and everything sucks even more

We discovered my son's vision was -8.00 just before he started kindergarten. I hate that he spent his early years seeing like this. 😔 We just didn't know.

I’m a -12 in one eye, -12.5 in the other. This video is great to explain to people what the world looks like to me without my glasses.

I’m -7, I wear contacts. It’s kinda nice to take them out and barely see anything.

I’m -3, my right eye actually progressed and went to -2 since last November but I also have astigmatism, so it’s blurry and look like paused fireworks all the time 😂

They skipped -9/-10. That’s where I’m at.

-12s are really in deep problem

-3 to -4 is my vision now without glasses.

-6 in both eyes with an astigmatism. Vision is straight cooked

And if you have astigmatism, add at least three extra transparent PNG layers misaligned on top of each other 🥲

I know someone who is a - 10 .. I have so much respect for them now.

-2 here

I'm at a -1.

Just remember this is a camera mimicing what people see with 2 eyes. Bad vision REALLY sucks & its worse than this. Theres a certain distance from your eyeball where stuff stops being clear (I’m nearsighted). Plus if you add Astigmatism on top of this, EVERY light becomes the Sun

i can definitely confirm the -12 😅

We have to pay to see ppl we don't like😭

I'm a -10 and it SUCKS 😫
