I've played video games for nearly 20 years now - which is by far the majority of my life. I never really liked school, so I always drew in class instead of looking at the blackboard - but of course, since I could not see the blackboard anyway. My world is within the range of my own hands!

I'm proud to say - I wear glasses! Just remember to let them be taken them off, before you slap someone with glasses, m'kay.

Now, how bout you guys! Let's get some statistics on this one!

I don't need any 'eyewear'. Whenever I put on my moms glasses everything becomes blurry. So I don't wear it.

I've got bad vision, I won't deny that. But I've also been offered lenses. Thing is, I like my glasses. They're sleek and sexy and my face doesn't really look 'complete' to me without them. And no, they aren't anywhere near the thick rims of Gordon House, over there.

Been playing video games, watching TV, and on the computer 23/7 since I was 7 years old(I'm 15 right now).

I still, according to my professional eye doctor, school nurse, and myself, have perfect 20/20 vision. I am blessed.

The stories where you lose eyesight when watching tv and computer are myths.

Not true. Its scientifically proven that looking at flashing/moving images, small text, or at a bright screen in a dark room(say, playing on the computer with the lights off) affect and decay your vision.
