[thechat] Astigmata

[Clift, Heather]

Hi Dan,

Me too.  I had 20/20 before I started being glued to computers.  Last year I
got my first pair of glasses because I realized I couldn't see anything
anymore.  My doctor says that it is getting pretty common to see people who
have this from computers.

:)

The upside is that you get a coating on your lenses that help protect your
eyes from the glare of the computer.

::point me in the
::direction of a good vision web site that will tell me all about it?
::
::Does anyone else have astigmatism or Computer Vision Syndrome?  Any
::comments?
