Question 1

Accepted Answer

Ans: Yes you are right at that point where you would benefit with corrective lenses

Question 2

if i have 20/40 vision does that mean i need glasses?

Accepted Answer

No: 20/10 is considered good vision. 20/20 normal. 20/40 a bit worse than normal.

Question 3

if i have 20/30 vision do i need glasses?

Accepted Answer

Personal preference: 20/30 is still acceptable vision, and may not require glasses, but if you did get some correcting lenses in glasses, it certainly could improve your vision/clarity to normal if preferred.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Is that 20/30?: You may have copied that incorrectly.  20/30 is standard nomenclature.

Question 5

do you need glasses if you have 20 30 vision?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It depends on how well you want to see.  It does not hurt your eyes in any way if you do not correct your vision.  It is just a matter as to how much the 20/30 vision bothers you, and how important it is to you to see 20/20.  If you are happy with your vision, glasses are not necessary.

Question 6

can someone help please? my vision is 20/45. do i need glasses?

Accepted Answer

Less than 20/20: There is no way to know why a person's vision is not "perfect" without examining them.  Glasses may correct some patient's vision but in other cases an eye disease or abnormality may be responsible.  Please see an eye doctor to find out.

Question 7

what kind of glasses are recommended for someone with 20\50 vision?

Accepted Answer

Glasses: Someone that is 20/50 may have near-/far-sightedness, astigmatism, or some other eye problem.  You need to see an eye doctor for evaluation.

Question 8

can you have 20 20  vision and still need glasses?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Glasses are used for many reasons:  vision at distance, vision at near, double vision. Glare reduction, light reduction, etc.  So you can have 20/20 vision (meaning good distance vision without glasses) and still need glasses for one of these other reasons.

Question 9

how bad is vision is 20/700 and can i fix it? i can see 20/700 without glasses and 20/20 with glasses?

Accepted Answer

: Your vision is fixed with either glasses or contacts (if applicable), your vision without glasses does not quite matter since it can be optically corrected.

Question 10

how do glasses assist with vision?

Accepted Answer

Improve focus: The eyes sometimes are imperfect and the focus cannot be naturally put in the proper place for best vision.  Glasses bend the light according to an amount measured by your ophthalmologist so that the focus is on the best place on the retina for the light to be received at its sharpest.
