How does one tell if he/she needs glasses?

Question

Not saying I need them but how does one tell?

What are the fundamental signs?

Answer 1

blurred vision, headaches, taking a long time to read small print

Answer 2

When I finally decided that I needed glasses it was after my friends kept telling me that I couldn't see the blackboard as well as I should be able to. Also, the real wake-up call was borrowing my friends prescription glasses and being able to see much better! I would get headaches when driving too.

Answer 3

TRY ON A PARE OF GLASSES IF THEY WORK U NEED THEM OR GO TO A DR........DUR

Answer 4

Look at things from far away and not be able to read them (Or really close things) Getting dizzy by looking at those blurry things in the distance/ in front of you. Go to an optometrist for an eye exam!

Answer 5

i was in the exact same situation as you a few months ago. I had trouble looking at far away objects, and also got headaches centered behind my eyes. I found myself squinting a lot too. You should definately see an optometrist because if you are wondering, odds are you need them....

Answer 6

honestly, the only real way to tell is to get an eye exam.

its a good idea anyway if it has been a while because the health of your eyes should be checked.

if you are getting headaches or not able to see things as clearly as either you once did these could be signs as well.

but really, go to the experts =)
