Corrective lenses restriction on drivers license: can cop ticket me for wearing contacts instead of eyeglasses I'm confused here about the whole "corrective lenses" restriction and how the police enforce such a thing. How would the police even know if you're lying about wearing contact lenses just to get out of getting a ticket for NOT wearing eyeglasses? I mean, let's assume someone IS wearing contact lenses instead of eyeglasses. Would the police look at the license, notice the corrective lenses restriction, and ask the driver why he or she isn't wearing eyeglasses? Could the driver just say he or she is wearing contact lenses and the cop just take the driver's word for it and leave it at that without issuing a ticket? Any of you with personal experience ever been given a citation for not wearing corrective lenses (either eyeglasses or contact lenses) while driving? What's been your experience with the corrective lenses restriction on your driver's license and/or how did the police react or how did they NOT react when looking at your license and/or corrective lenses restriction?

Where can I buy eyeglasses without corrective lenses? Claire's used to sell glasses - a long time ago - that were just for fun. They wouldn't mess with your vision, but they looked like real glasses. Claire's doesn't sell these anymore... where can I get some without spending a lot of money? I have 20/20 vision but would like to have glasses just for fun. Thanks!

Is it really true that more than half of the population now wears corrective lenses? (glasses, contacts, etc.) I was at an eye doctor today and one of the opticians was saying that now something like 60% of the population wears corrective lenses, such as eyeglasses and contact lenses, and it is about 50/50 as to which one. Is this true? It seems a little outlandish to me...

How were the ancients able to manage without corrective lenses? The idea of eyeglasses and corrective vision has only existed for a few centuries at most. In the Middle Ages and prior, how did people with poor vision deal with this? As a species have we always had these vision problems or is the human race developing more deficiencies as we move forward in time?

why are eyglasses referred to as "corrective lenses"? for a science assignment in school i need to know why eyeglasses are also called corrective lenses

a corrective lenses???? under RESTRICTIONS on a permit if it says A CORRECTIVE LENSES can that mean contacts as well as glasses like if they knew you wore contacts would the restriction be called something else or is wearing contacts or eyeglasses both called a corrective lenses?

Where can I get prescription eyeglasses? I went to the eye doctor today and found out that I need to get some prescription eyeglasses. My eyesight isn't horrible, but I do need some corrective lenses. Anyway, what is the general price range on eyeglasses, and where is a good place I can go to get a better price on eyeglasses? Lol, I'm 18 next month and I've NEVER had my eyesight tested before.

Purchased eyeglass frames online, and having lenses put in? I purchased an expensive pair of Chanel eyeglass frames online. I need to have my optometrist put in corrective lenses. I know that some places wont put lenses in frames that weren't purchased from their store for liability if they break the frames. My optometrist has an on sight lab so they will do it. But what are the chances they crack my frames?

Can a child ballet student wear eyeglasses / spectacles? My son has asked if he can do Ballet even though he wears corrective eyeglasses / spectacles full time. He is long-sighted and needs to wear them for normal vision. Contact lenses are not an option. Before asking a Ballet School I wished to find out if it's a possible problem ? Before we visit one. Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks. I'm trying to find out before asking a Ballet school, because I don't want them to say "No" out of prejudice, or simply because they don't like it.

Eyeglasses question ? I was wondering if there are two different types of lenses: corrective and non-corrective? Or are all eyeglass lenses corrective?

can you tell me some features of titanium eyeglasses frames ? Titanium Eyeglass Frames are strong, Light weight and Flexible mount for your corrective lenses.these are easy to use.

How did people manage to see before eyeglasses were invented? Based on the huge proportion of the population that needs glasses or contact lenses today, I can't imagine that a similar proportion of the population in ancient times didn't have similar vision problems. How did they manage to see back then before corrective lenses were invented? For example in Roman times, which was far already a very advanced society, how did people manage to see? And in antiquity, how did people manage to hunt and survive in the wild without good vision? Did those individual simply die before reaching adult age? Is the human race developing more and more vision problems as we are moving forward in time?

Are there eyeglasses that counteract glare from computer screens? Are there any glasses available that offer this feature? I want a pair of glasses to wear that will shield my eyes. I understand that glare ruins our rods and cones. I do not need corrective lenses, for I have good eyesight. Are there any glasses available like this?

What happened to my tinted eyeglasses? I have worn corrective lenses for many years and always have the lenses tinted (they darken in sunlight). However, suddenly, the tint disappeared and I don't understand what happened to them! Can anyone explain it?

How Does a Rx For Myopia Work In Contact Lenses? I am considering contact lenses for the first time, but don't understand something...? I just got my first ever pair of corrective single vision eyeglasses (for nearsightedness and a little astigmatism). They work great and I can see things in the distance, further than 10 feet in particular, with incredible clarity! For things closer than 4 feet, I can see perfectly without any corrective lenses, so my new glasses have to come off for computer or reading work for instance. My doctor explained this would happen, and for close and distant vision in one pair of glasses he explained all about progressive lenses to me. How can so many people wear contacts for myopia, and NOT have the contacts affect their normal and good natural close vision at the same time? How can "single vision contact lenses" do this without being multifocal, as with progressive type eyeglasses? Is only part of the contact lens Rx'd? How come contact lenses are different from single vision eyeglasses in this regard?

OK i got the first part, but can do the 2nd can someone help Plz... A nearsighted woman cannot clearly see? A nearsighted woman cannot clearly see objects more than 1.9 m away. The distance from the lens of the eye to the retina is 2.1 cm, and the eye's power of accommodation is 3.2 D (the focal length of the cornea-lens system increases by a maximum of 3.2 D over its relaxed focal length when accommodating for nearby objects).

What is the vision requirement to renew your drivers license in texas? I have eyeglasses and see well with them but they have some scratches. Would I have a problem meeting the vision requirement? How do they test your vision in Texas? What type of chart do they use? Do you have to take the vision test if you already wear corrective lenses and have that restriction? Thanks for any information.

Driving with eyeglasses? Ok, so I just got eyeglasses and was told that I would need them for driving. I was wondering if I would need to get prescription sunglasses for driving when it's sunny outside? What do drivers who need to wear corrective lenses do to deal with the sun? Oh and I don't plan on getting contacts because they're not allowed at my job.

Does constantly wearing eyeglasses have any adverse effects to uncorrected vision? I recently went to an optical shop to look for a set of eyeglasses that could filter radiation coming from computer monitors. As my work demands, I spend my whole days in front of a computer and feel the need to protect my eyes from over-exposure to surrounding glare and radiation. I had my eyes examined first, following the shop guys' recommendation. Their reason for recommending such was that, I have budgeted for lenses, so why wouldn't I aim for a set of eyeglasses that was custom-made for me, instead of spending for a generic anti-radiation eyeglasses. the test resulted to a -0.25 vision (negligible, I think), and I received my eyeglasses for -0.25 correction. My worry is: does constant use of these eyeglasses have any bad effects to my vision when not wearing them (uncorrected vision)? I can still perform perfectly without wearing them (I notice just a slight difference on visual acuity between wearing and not wearing them, and as I've stated, my main concern was to protect my eyes from monitor radiation). Or in other words, will my normal vision get impaired by possibly being dependent to corrective eyeglasses? Answers would be appreciated.

Eyeglasses for vanity/fashion/looking smart? I have perfect vision. Don't need corrective lenses. But I look really young and I meet a lot of new people at work who appear surprised when they learn of my position/authority. I feel like 'fake' eyeglasses will make me look older (and hell, a little more authoritative too). I understand body language and posture, etc, so I appreciate but am not asking for those kind of suggestions. What I need is a reputable retailer where I can buy professional looking frames but with zero corrective aspect to the lenses. Essentially, glasses just to make me look smart.

How can I pass these contact lenses on to someone who could use them? A couple of years ago, I bought contact lenses in bulk so I wouldn't have to keep going to the eye doc for a new prescription, because my prescription hasn't changed in years. But this past spring I had lasik surgery, and don't need corrective lenses anymore. I have all these lenses left. I know, since they are prescription, I probably can't try to sell them on-line or anything. But there are agencies that take peoples' old eyeglasses for recycling- are there agencies that would put these contact lenses to good use? I don't mind taking the monetary loss, I just hate to have them go to waste.

Non-Feminist Ladies, What style of eyeglasses for men do you like most...? I have a relatively mild Rx for distance corrective lenses, but I really don't wish to get contact lenses and I'm reluctant to get LASIX surgery for vision correction. I really don't care about brand names for frames but I wish to get eyeglasses that are relatively inconspicuous, fashionable and most appealing (to ladies in their early to mid- twenties). Again, I'll only be wearing them for driving and that sort of thing. What style, material and other features for the frames do you recommend? I've never had eyeglasses before and wish to get sturdy ones that ladies like. I'm a male in my early thirties. Thank you.

Would high index lenses make sense for me? I know this question has been sort of asked before, but I need more specific assistance. I am nearsighted and bought a pair of new eyeglasses this past weekend from LensCrafters. Wearing them the past 5 days or so, I've been experiencing peripheral distortion and there is some strain in my right eye, though not the same strain I feel when I am not wearing corrective lenses. As a matter of fact, my straight ahead vision is crystal clear, so I don't think that the precription is/was off. I went back to the optometrist today who did a very quick exam (my regular person was not there and this person seemed very rushed) and insisted that my left eye needed a stronger rx, but that's not the eye that feels the strain...and I have no problems with my contacts (old rx). He then quickly jumped to, "Oh, of course you need a higher index lens with your prescription." I took the glasses back to LensCrafters who will happily replace the lenses...for an additional $210 (high index 1.67 lenses plus their antireflective coating). My question: how likely is this to solve my problem, i.e., is this worth the money? My Rx: L=-3.00x-0.50x093, R=-4.50x-0.50x068. Most websites seem to leave this as a gray zone for high index versus polycarbonate (LC Featherwates). I should add that this was my actually my annual exam--last exam was almost a year ago. I bought the eyeglasses with the old-ish script to use my 2011 benefits in time. My script changed to -3.0 from 2.75 in the left eye, where it had been for the past 3 years. Also, LensCrafters only carries 1.67, not 1.60. I could go somewhere else altogether, but would have to kiss my 2011 benefits goodbye.

Just notice something regarding my prescription? with my eyeglasses on, I can see clearly out of both eyes together. However, when I cover each eye, with my eyeglasses on, I noticed that vision is superior in my right eye. And the ironic thing is, without corrective lenses, vision is superior in my left eye. Is this a normal situation? If not, what can I do?

The optometrist told me I have 20/50 vision on my left eye. Can it still be corrected? Will corrective lenses improve my vision or will it make me more dependent on eyeglasses in the long run?

How many people wear eyelgasses? I was wondering if anyone knew how many people in Canada wear eyeglasses, or what percentage of the general population is in need of corrective lenses?

What do people see when they put on another person's eyeglasses? I am really blind...like -6.00 in both eyes. I just went to the eye doctor and got new glasses. I really love my new frames so I wore them to school. Because they are so thick, a lot of my friends asked to see them. I was in my physics class and my glasses got passed up to the teacher and he put them on. He then decided to ask me (he doesn't know the answer!) "Is this what you see when you don't have contacts or glasses in/on?" I, of course didn't know, and have been searching the net all weekend, but I can't find an answer! I know I can't be the only one who wonders! So, my question is: When someone puts my glasses on, do they see what my vision is without any corrective lenses? Thanks in advance!

Blind judo: just what in heaven does this mean? I'm somewhat past the range of legal blindness (although of a defect with temporal correction, aka "glasses" :p still, 20/600 in my better eye is nothing to laugh about). I started taking judo very recently and I feel pretty comfortable with it. I have lots of fun and it allows my eyes a very deserved rest because it doesn't depend so much on what I'm seeing, rather than on what I'm touching. Therefore, I wanted to ask my sensei if I should start training without depending on my visual correction aids at all (he has trained others in adapted judo before, so I trust him on it). Before I ask him, though, I'd like for somebody to make a little light of this for me: QUALIFICATION FOR COMPETITIONS IBSA has established the following categories for qualification: • B1 = From perception of light in either eye to the perception of light, but without the ability to recognize the shape of a hand at any distance or in any direction. • B2 = From the ability to recognize the shape of a hand to a visual acuity of 2/60 and/or a visual field of less than 5 degrees. • B3 = From a visual acuity above 2/60 up to visual acuity of 6/60 and/or a visual field of more than 5 degrees and less than 20 degrees. All classifications will be based on both eyes, with the aid of the best corrective lenses, e.g., all athletes who wear contact lenses or eyeglasses should be wearing said eyewear when tested (if they intend to make use of them while competing). From what I understand, with my sight unassisted by glasses, I fall under B2. What I don't understand is the addendum at the end: does it mean it is obligatory to use corrective lenses when you're being tested, or only if you intend to use them on a match?

Physics help: Lens power? A farsighted boy has a near point at 2.3m and requires eyeglasses to correct his vision. Corrective lenses are available in increments of 0.25 diopters. The eyeglasses should have lenses of the lowest power for which the near point is no further than 25 cm. The correct choice of lens power for eyeglasses, in diopters, is: a. +3.75 b. +4.00 c. +4.25 d. +3.50 e. +3.25 Can someone explain to me how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!

How did my eyesight get better? When I was 1 year old, I had poor, god-awful vision. I had to wear the thickest prescription that was available and the lenses had to be glass because plastic couldn't be polished enough to be see through when that thick at the time. I was cross-eyed (this was corrected through laser surgery when I was 2 years old) and astigmatism. Through-out the years my eyesight slowly improved little by little. I was wearing glasses at age 18, but the prescription was off after wearing the eyeglasses for a year and I didn't have insurance. I figured my eyesight wasn't as horrible as it had once been so decided to do without glasses for awhile. Awhile turned out to be six years. Today I went to the optomitrist and took an eye exam, the verdict came back: 20/20 in right eye with no imperfection and less than 20/25 in left eye. Since I am right eye dominate, glasses or any other corrective lenses were not reccommended. After reading my history, the optomotrist wanted to know what I had done for m my eyes. I hadn't done anything. They just got better. Anyone out there know how someone with astigmatism can just get over it? Belgara, I had surgery when I was 2, that was 22 years ago. I stopped wearing them when I was 18, so that still makes 16 years. Did it really take that long for the surgery to have that effect? Judy B, A military hospital in Germany was the only way to get the prescription at the time. That is probably why there was only so many types of lenses available. It was 1984 afterall. Also, I was told that the surgery was used to correct my cross-eye, I don't know if it was or wasn't, it was just what I was told by my parents. I never really looked into it or questioned more about it, so it is a possibility that the surgery was for something else and the cross-eye was fixed as a result of the surgery or treatment after it.

Wondering if my astigmatism prescription is correct.? I recently filled the eyeglass prescription that an optometrist at Walmart Vision gave me. My prescription is -7.00 for the right eye, and -5.00 for the left eye with an astigmatism correction factor of - 50 (cyl) and 30 (axis). The cylinder factor is -50 with no decimal places. This seemed kind of high to me since I also wear normal contact lenses and see just fine out of those. I filled the prescription anyway, and when I wear the eyeglasses, I feel like I am in a fun house. Everything looks slanted at an angle and magnified very large. Also, the optometrist did not have my previous eyeglass prescription. When I called and asked about it today, he said that he had seen a corrective factor in my old glasses and so included it on my new prescription. However, he did not test me for the astigmatism himself. However, if I had a corrective factor before and it is the same one he prescribed, then why am I having these problems? What should I do? Is a -50 cyl. factor normal?

Eye Health Concerns (Professional Assistance Preferred)? Hello, I have a few questions...I'd prefer advice from an optician or other eye professional or someone who's been using glasses/contacts for a long time. This got a little long. 1. My job requires me to use a computer for long amounts of time and I'm frequently on the computer at home, sometimes late into the night. I'm a heavy computer user. I've read that heavy computer users are at higher risk for eye conditions like myopia and glaucoma and that this harms how well you can see far away because it's a close-focus and high eye stress activity. I blink and look away from time to time when my eyes feel dry or stressed, but when I look in the mirror, I can see red vessels that are present only after computer use. What do those mean? I'm thinking it's just eye strain but I'd rather be sure. I guess the sum of my question is "Does heavy computer use harm your eyes?" 2. I wear glasses. Without them words of this size on a computer screen get blurry when it's more than 1-1.5 feet away from me. I tend to get closer to the computer, but I suspect that would only make it worse...if I keep doing this and other close-focus activities such as reading small print, will my eyeglass prescription eventually become stronger? Before I started wearing glasses, my vision wasn't perfect (obviously), but I recall being able to make things out better. Now, it seems that my vision has worsened. I wonder if this is why. 3. Eye improvement...I've been looking into vision exercises that claim to improve sight...I've done a few of them and they seemed to improve my eyes' focus for a short period of time but I haven't faithfully committed to these so I can't speak for them. In the opinion of an eye professional, can these help improve vision over time? I've also been wondering about eye care supplements with lutein (e.g. I-Caps). Some friends of mine had pills like these suggested by their doctors. I don't have any serious problems like glaucoma or macular degeneration...since I don't have any problems with my eye (that I know of), will these have any preventative effect for me? Could they improve my vision? I'm not looking for any "magic cure", just something to help out. 4. This one's for my daughter...she doesn't need corrective glasses, but wants to wear this special type of contact lens. I think they're called "circle lenses" or "big eye lenses" or something for cosmetic enhancement. I've looked into allowing this. They appear to be only available online. I have some doubts about the websites I've seen as a) none of them look even remotely professional, b) they're manufactured in Korea, Japan, etc. and I don't know about their safety and sanitation standards and c) I don't know if the material they use is the same used in the U.S...they look like soft lenses, but I've read that they're worse for your eye sight either because of the material they use or its larger diameter, depriving the eye of more oxygen? They run for about $30-$40 for contacts that will last a whole year or two. I'm doubting these, but if there are any safe suppliers of a similar FDA-approved version from the U.S., or whether we should just skip these all together. Her eye sight is not worth a weird eye :/ But I have read from some people who use them that they're just like other soft lenses, which is why I'm unsure. 5. And a sort of random but related question - can you sleep in RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable) lenses? Do you just leave them on and not remove them or do they need to be taken off like soft lenses or are they worn continually until they're due to expire? P.S. - I can't afford LASIK.

Optics theory, am i right? 10 points? hello, see, none of the books have been explicit about this so I wanted to clarify my theory, so what I want to ask is, when a person wears a eyeglass for say myopia, he is correction his lowest accomidation by adding a negative power,? for example, a person has the farthest point 100 cm, so his power (in current state) would be = 100*(1/100+10/25) = 41D . now to see objects at say infinity, we must have power 40D(we know that) so, the power of the lenses should be 40D-41D = -1D. ? I mean so that when an object is at infinity, it will create a virtual image at 100cm (the farthest point of the eye) and from there the eye would be able to focus it, with the power 41D only? so what i mean to say is that a corrective lens corrects the accomodation of an eye(which is between 40D - 44D)? plus whenever a object is placed say nearer to than infinity but more than the farthest point, say 500cm,first the corrective lens makes a virtual image (at a distanc < 100 cm) and then our eye will adjust the focal length. and thus the power should be > 41 D(cause that's the lowest that eye can go upto) and I see that when we subtract -1D (power of lense) frying the power to focused this virtual image, I find its equal to the power an eye without myopia would needy to focus the object at 500 cm. so Am I right? If I am wrong please show me the correct way?

I was wearing glasses at age 18, but the prescription was off after wearing the eyeglasses for a year and I didn't have insurance. I figured my eyesight wasn't as horrible as it had once been so decided to do without glasses for awhile. Awhile turned out to be six years. Today I went to the optometrist and took an eye exam, the verdict came back: 20/20 in right eye with no imperfection and less than 20/25 in left eye. Since I am right eye dominate, glasses or any other corrective lenses were not recommended. After reading my history, the optometrist wanted to know what I had done for my eyes. I hadn't done anything. They just got better. Anyone out there know how someone with astigmatism can just get over it? Note - Asking here because of a guaranteed response, the question is also posted in optical health, however, a response there is not guarnteed.

how much can you expect corrective lenses to improve my eyesight? how much can eyeglasses correct someones vision

Should corrective power of eyeglasses and contacts be different? My optometrists' office is closed today, so I'm asking here, my eyeglasses prescription specifies a "spherical" of -4.75, and my contact lens prescription specifies a "power" of -4.50. Both prescriptions were from the same examination. Before I order contacts, I want to know if this discrepancy is normal, or a clerical error?

Is the bifocal part of my eyeglass, which is for reading, to big? My eyeglasses are corrective, they help with reading text and seeing things at a distance. However, I am seeing way to much of the bifocal part of the lens and its making me a bit dizy. Is this because my eyes are still adjusting to this perscription I have had for only two days now, the biofocal part of my eyeglasses being to big, or just that my eyeglasses are sitting on my face wrong?

Shouldn't eyeglasses make each eye see equally well? I just got new reading glasses yesterday. For years my left eye has been far-sighted and my right near-sighted, although not to the extent that I need glasses all the time--just for reading. The optician also told me one of my eyes has an astigmatism, but I don't know which one. Each time I have gotten glasses I have noticed that the left lens never, never gives me the same vision quality as the right lens. This has happened every single time I've had an exam and had to get new glasses. The right eye is GREAT and I'm amazed at how out-of-focus life really was for me. But the left eye, compared to the right, is definitely not as clear. In fact, there is barely a difference between wearing the glasses and not for that eye. Is this part of a corrective process, and my left eye will be better after a while? I'd really appreciate any info. I am 31. I also have not worn my glasses for all of my life. I usually ended up getting so frustrated with them that I quit wearing them after a couple months. This time, though, headaches are what prompted me to go see the optician again. In the two days I've been wearing them, I've been headache-free, so I know I need to keep wearing them. Thanks, Willow9. Actually, I did tell the optician this time around, and I asked if he could just leave the left eye alone and give me a "blank" lens for it. But he obviously thought otherwise. And really, I'm not complaining at all; the headaches are gone and I can see more clearly. I just didn't know what I should expect from my specs. :)
