Help me understand my eye prescription?

Question

I have an -1.25 in both OD and OS. Does this mean I have bad eyesight or is my eyesight fairly good?

in terms of 20/20 what would my eyesight be considered?

Answer 1

About 20/45, but that's very approximate. It's not bad. You need glasses to drive safely but can manage OK otherwise, although things look much sharper when you wear glasses.  

Answer 2

That's not that bad.  I have 1.75 on my right. You can see but not too clearly. You're nearsighted meaning you can't see far clearly.
