Most Blind

[lurkerwithout]

A post by ursalav on vision got me to thinking about my own visual acuity. And I'm now wondering if, barring any actual blind people on my f-list, I might have the worst vision, near sightedness wise...

So sound off if you can top my 20/220 peepers. Though thats only the right eye, the left is 20/225...

I'm crazy near sighted. I don't remember the exact number, but I can only see about six inches away from my face before things get blurry.

That's right about where I was vision-wise before I had LASIK in 2002.

We don't tend to do the 20/whatever up here, so much as we just keep track of how strong (in diopters) your glasses have to be.

So I don't know what my 20/whatever rating is, but I'm told I'm legally blind without glasses, and I can see just fine with them.

I was 20/250 right, 20/375 left until Jan 2005.

I dunno my exact prescription, but I am legally blind without my glasses; I can't even see the big "E" at the top of the chart.
