I stopped wearing my glasses and contact lenses on Tuesday 26th May 2008. My prescription was -6 and -9 in contact lenses. I have not worn them since. My eyesight was very poor and I could not make out faces near me at all. Their features were a blur. Cars were a big blur. Everything hazy. My eyesight got better daily over a period of 2 weeks and then progress was slower. I got glimpses of perfect vision which encouraged me to keep going but they were very much flashes only. On 4th of June 2008 I got my snellen chart and I could see only 2/200. I got occasional flashes of 2/15.
Fast forward to today and I am consistently seeing 10/15 and 20/30. I can see 10/10 most times if I really want to and have seen 20/15 before. I see the chart letters a lot blacker and clearer now. My distance of clarity has significantly improved. I used to have to put items very near to myself in order to see them. Now I can see the details further away. I can sit at my computer at a normal distance with normal print. This is something I have only recently accomplished.
