My eyesight went to shit from sitting at a desk and staring at a monitor all day. I wonder if my eyesight would've remained perfect well into adulthood without computers.

Being seriously evaluated for Sjogren's Syndrome currently. Went to a rheumatologist for joint pain and found out that my chronic eye pain and dry eyes is a big indicator of a problem. I thought it is because my eyesight is shit and I look at screens constantly

My eyesight is atrocious. One time I was out in a notable windstorm, I stumbled, and my glasses got ripped off my face. I would have been absolutely fuckered if I'd been alone. They'd gotten blown under a car and I never would have found them by myself.

Okay... Sheesh! Text message, email, voicemail, and now lemmy post!? Fine, I'll call to schedule my yearly appointment. Happy now, doc?
Just make the world think they are blind too. Just like anything else.
Every time I have a migraine (or when I take my daily preventative. or whenever I notice the anti-migraine coating on my glasses) I consider how long it'll take someone to put me out of my misery once the apocalypse shows up. Can't say I'll be super useful whenever I'm forced to be in a dark/quiet room for a day or so before I can function again.
