If you wear glasses/contacts full time- what is your prescription?

[Glasses44]

Just curious.
I have really poor eyesight (-4.50) and have wore glasses full time since a child

What is blue light discount?

-6 in both eyes in lenses
One I think should be -6.25 but it is correcting my astigmatism and I've been told they only increase in 0.5 measures.

It's the blue light card. You pay 5 quid a year and get discounts from various places. You can get one if you work for NHS armed forces teaching etc.

OP I hope that reading the replies has made you realise that -4.5 really isn't "really poor eyesight"!

-7.5 here, and many worse than me.

I was curious because I think -4.5 is quite high. Only 10% of us have a prescription greater than about -4 according to this. But there is a very long tail in the minus numbers!

@NotMeNoNo I think the problem is that when you get to minus 4 you'll struggle without glasses or contacts in any capacity.So whilst not as debilitating as the higher prescriptions, you still have poor eyesight compared to someone with 20/20 or someone who's just needs specs for TV.
I'm -5.25 and can see up close but anything beyond my nose is a problem. I do feel inspired to look at lens replacement surgery from this thread. Although not sure if I'd be a candidate on prescription and age grounds. I'm nervous of Lasik treatment due to my super dry eyes.
