With glasses correcting vision to the degree they are intended to, you should be able to see individual leaves on a tree 1km away. That’s generally my test for if I need to go in and get my prescription updated.
When they are doing the “which looks better?” part, take your time, don’t let them make you feel rushed. When I was younger we didn’t have much money, so we had to go to the eye care place inside the local wal-mart. They always made you feel like you were wasting their time, cuz they book too many people. My prescription was never great as a kid.
When I finally got my own money and went to a decent eye place with up to date equipment and no rush, the prescription I got then, and ever since have been literally miles ahead of the wal-mart crap.
My vision was worth the extra 10 dollars and additional 5 minutes. It’s a pretty important sense. (Sorry to those who lack the option of sight, but I imagine even you guys have to feel bad for someone that could see perfectly, but has just never gotten the opportunity to).
I have walked several hundred miles barefoot over the past two years.
Only thing ive stepped on was a tiny poiny rock. Easy to pull out.
A wild trick i use: my eyes. And look where i place my feet.
I can’t see anywhere near that well. Can everyone? I might need new glasses

That’s just never going to happen, lol. I will talk to my doctor though, thanks

Thank you. I really appreciate the advice and the level of empathy 🤍
