Default Holy crap! "Seeing" in HD!

Following on from my previous thread about how much fooking glasses cost from opticians - I just picked my new bins up and holy fucking shit! I can see shit I never knew was there before

Fuck me, it is seriously like the world has turned from crappy analogue TV into fooking full on HD-DVD Everything is so fucking detailed

Err, that is all

all you need to do now is get a hair cut and you'll look half decent

Yeah But I had been meaning to change em for ages, but never got round to it, or spent the money on other things instead

Still, they lasted FUCKING well for 10yrs, so I hope these last just aswell!

i wonder how many people there are that haven't had their eyes tested for a while and are going around not being able to see properly? you don't notice that your sight has deteriorated if it happens gradually (like hearing) but when you get it corrected and can see the leave son the trees again it is amazing

Trush I had the same thing, vision started to deteriorate in my early twenties and I couldn't believe just how blind I was. Scary.

Turns out my mum saying "You'll go blind" was true all along.

Funny, thats one of the first things I noticed! Even from about 20 metres away I could make out leaves on trees, and the "grain" of the road
