I've noticed a drop-off in my vision lately. I've never needed glasses and have always had freakishly good vision (20/10) but now it is simply average. I can't read the street signs from more than a block away anymore and it feels really weird.
I know it only keeps degenerating so I'll probably be headed for glasses in the next decade or two. Getting old blows. My knuckles are the worst - they ache all the time...especially when a low pressure system rolls through:(

I wore glasses for a long time, then stopped for a while (I cant remember why) and when i tried to go back, i couldnt do it. I have always been in the same boat as Rod, about 20/11 for most o fmy life, but I have an astigmatism that makes things screwy at certain distances, whihc is why i had the glasses in the first place.
These days, i cant wear anythgin. Even sunglasses give me a splitting headache, so on sunny days i wear a hat with a visor.

Ah the joys of aging. I got glasses when I was about 6, and wore them or contacts until I was 32. I did lasiks, and went to 20/15. Not too bad, until I hit 39, when I was told the headaches and blur were from computer screens. Ugh..ah well, the lasiks was well worth it; still is. Not having to wait until the correctives are in or on is a huge bonus. As Rod said, the low pressure systems are murder. Knuckles swell and hurt, the knees stiffen, and the toes feel like someone hit them with a hammer. And the fun has just begun here in the Pacific Northwest :D

As for watching TV in the dark, total darkness is a tremendous strain to the eyes. Some sort of soft lighting, preferably behind you, overhead...somewhere where it doesnt cast an annoying reflection in the screen, is much better. The eyes will get accustomed to the soft light, and dont have to adjust to the blackness of the room and the sudden shifting glares from the TV.
