Blurry vision is an easy fix with a bunch of solutions. Buy glasses. Get some contacts. Have laser eye surgery. But let's be honest with ourselves and everyone else: whether you wear any kind of corrective lenses or not, obstacles still make their way into your daily life. Some things are just part of the Poor Vision Club. Whether you wear glasses now, went a period of time without them, or don't have them at all, we all know these things all too well.

1. Everyone forgets you can't see the things they see when you don't have your glasses on.

"See that guy over there?" Sort of when he moves, sure.

2. Restaurants with hanging menus behind the counter might as well use Wingdings.

That letter "Q" could just as well have been an airplane. We wouldn't know the difference.

3. You get used to blurry vision.

After a while without your glasses on, everything starts to look normal and you forget you actually can't see anything.

4. It does nothing for your education when the instructor starts writing on the board without the specs.

Is anything even coming out of that marker? Wherever did you buy that invisible chalk?

5. You think you look perfectly presentable until you put your glasses on.

Your hair looked great until you slid those babies on your face.

6. This.

Especially this in winter.

7. Your other senses compensate.

No one knows a person's walk better than one who can't see well. Identifying people and places based on other senses becomes easier and the way each person moves becomes so much more distinct.

8. When you have your glasses on, there is no comfortable lying position for your face.

This means that when deciding to watch a movie, your choices are to sit up or watch colorful splotches on the screen lying down. Unless you like when this happens:

9. Glasses on Glasses.

Science laboratory goggles, swimming goggles, 3D glasses. Whatever they are, if you can make them work together, I am impressed.

10. People mean well when they try to explain what things look like to you.

They don't know what you can and can't see or that their description is going no where fast.

11. You get to experience the world differently.

Your hearing sharpens, you focus on scents and sounds more heavily to get to know the world around you and that is especially cool. There is more to beauty than that which meets the eye!
