Is it rare to have 20/15 vision at 41?

Question

my dad has had super vision until 50 so i was wondering when my eyes are going to go to pot even though i just got my vision tested at still better than 20/20.

Answer 1

yeah but you can get 20/15 vision from lasik too.

Answer 2

Depends how good your mother's eyes were, expect something in-between your mother's and father's.  

Answer 3

No.  Many people without eye disease see 20/15.  At age 41, you can expect to start to have some trouble with near vision in the next 3-8 years.  Likely your distance will remain good.

Answer 4

No, not that rare,  But while the distance vision doesn't change much for most people between forty and fifty, most notice a big change in their ability to do closework over the same period.

Your eyes may not go to pot, but that isn't quite the positive statement it might seem.  There are exactly two possibilities, if you think about it: your eyes will go before the rest of you, or the rest of you will go before your eyes.

Answer 6

Natural 20/15 eyesight is rare in our complicated cultures these days. 60 to 80 percent of people in the United States have some kind of blurry vision. That means that 60 to 80 percent of people are staring, diffusing, squinting, and straining their vision system. These incorrect vision habits are very catchy from: parent to child, friend to friend, coworker to coworker, person to person.

Eye Docters are trained to say: #1 Vision never gets better on its own, it will at best stay the same but more than likely get worse. #2 everybody around the age of 40 will get blurry vision up close. Vision correction surgeons also add that people's vision usually stabilizes in the  20's. Vision will go to pot when we believe these self fulfilling prophecies and stare, diffuse, squint, and strain.
