doing well considering you have eye probs. I have a stable and minor vision prob which doesn't stop me from flying but means i wear glasses when i am tired yay.
Practise with the lens and you'll be right

prevailinginsanity In reply to UnLeashed210 [2006-12-12 15:46:50 +0000 UTC]
Yeah very convenient..
When I first started wearing them, I kept pushing my 'glasses' up my nose only to realise that they were not there..
Urm.. I can see near but not far.. That's short sighted, right?

Even that, sometimes I bump into the corner of my bed..

An advice..
When he's at home, try wearing glasses instead of contacts..
Whenever possible, put aside the glasses and look at the greenery around..

UnLeashed210 In reply to prevailinginsanity [2006-12-21 02:33:26 +0000 UTC]
yeeeh he does wear his glasses and home but he wears his contacts everyday... but he never goes without either of them so his vision is probly getting weaker!

I do like the photo.
Yes, unfortunately you do have to focus manually when using a macro lens on an SLR but I am certain that you will eventually get used to it.

Do you use spectacles or contact lenses? I am sure they will be a great help.

It is annoying when you eyesight keeps changing. At least mine has been stable for the past 6 years.
