Found out one reason today at the Dr's office...

Having an allergy problem which has caused my eyelid to swell up, so the Dr wanted me to do the eye exam to see if it affected my sight. Both eyes, left eye, right eye - all 20/10 vision! :shock: (That's the bottom line on the chart; I feel like I could've gone lower, but the opportunity wasn't there.) :lol:

Funny thing is, my sisters have both been wearing glasses since high school, my brother since in his 20's (I think), my mom & dad FOREVER (as long as I can remember), and almost all my relatives on both sides wear glasses.

I am a freak of nature!

(just hope I can keep my super powers until I'm very, very old)

nah you aren't a freak. I'm near sighted in one eye and far sighted in the other. This allows my total corrected vision to be about 20/12. At least that the BS my optometrist gave me. You're probly just a saavy driver. I got good at it quickly in autox because I used to race mountain bikes some in highschool. My brother was a semipro rider and taught me alot about it. In downhilling looking ahead is the most important thing you can do. In autox you hit a cone at 45 mph in a car, on a bike you hit a tree at 50 :shock:.
