This is the most funny effort trying to figure out the connection between personality traits and physical traits (so far). :laugh:

I've been myopic since I was 6 years old.

My number is very high, I currently have a power of -8 in both eyes. I used to be rather unhappy about my thick glasses when I was about 14 years old, but I've been wearing contact lenses for a few years now. :) I wear them all the time, naturally.

I can barely see anything without my lenses or glasses. I'm so shortsighted I have to practically put my nose to a page to read it. Everything looks happy and blurry without my lenses on. It's like being on drugs. :D

I can't imagine why there'd be a correlation about type and glasses.

20-20 vision here. I figure if N's live in their heads too much, they lose their eyesight? But with my experience, nah. Perhaps we should bring our parents into the equation? Taking type into consideration too?

Well it could be that some eyesight deterioration is hereditary. My entire immediate family wears glasses, my father is farsighted like his mother. I'm nearsighted like my mother and brother.

That's probably true. I'm guilty of the contacts>glasses bit. And I've worn glasses since I was 5.
.
I wear both. IxTP? :D I imagine not liking the feeling of this thing on your face should do it. That or being klutzy enough to destroy the glasses with regular wear.

If I may veer off topic here -- then what is an intuitive? Why are so many of the people here sensors who think they're intuitive?

Because N is clearly greater than S.

What a silly question. Are you a rabbit?

Umm...

You know what they say. When you're on the internet, nobody can tell you're a dog... err, rabbit. But it seems that my cover has been blown.

How did you know?

Hmmm, I'm just farsighted enough that it bothers me when reading but the optometrist doesn't think the correction I needs is worth writing a perscription for. Where do I fall?

From what I'd read, I thought 20/8 was the best the human eye could be naturally.

I had surgery bitch!


I don't know... I mean I doubt they did any conclusive study proving that it's physically impossible for a human eye to see that well. I read the chart... maybe the bitch lied to me? I may have heard her wrong... twenty sixteen maybe?

There are always flukes -- you yourself are one.
20/10 right? That's not exactly common.

I'm an N and I have 20/15 vision. But 20/10? Wow, that's some sharp vision!

Well, of course not. You have to take them off to sleep.
I've tried telling my son that, but he's not convinced.

I'm near-sighted, but not badly. My license is not restricted, but it's hard for me to read street signs, etc without them. I :heart: my glasses and how well I see with them while I'm out and about, but I have my living room set up so that I don't need my glasses to watch TV and I take off my glasses as soon as I walk in the door, just like I take off my shoes.

Could be, or maybe you just have incredible vision. I could be wrong too, I just thought that's what I remembered reading a while ago, when I got curious as to what 20/10 meant and spent a bit of time on wikipedia.

Exactly....actually, it's more that I'm always the odd one. At least with vision, it's in the better than normal instead of worse.
