I paid for eye insurance when I first landed a "real" job that has benefits and got an eye check up and the optometrist was like "you're just barely off from 20/20, not really even a prescription" and i was like oh geez what a waste of time.

And then I put on the pair of glasses and it was like this. Just every tree looked magical.

So what are you saying? Even with pretty good vision it makes a massive difference?

well, I can only speak from my own experience. I forget the exact prescription but my eyes were also slightly off so one was worse than the other and neither was perfect.

Idk if it's just that significant or if it's having them align but it made tree leaves just look individual and pop for me. I was staring at every tree and saying how they look so cool and it was only later that I learned this common tree meme among people who get glasses.

Makes sense, thanks!

The lenses might have had good coatings which helps cut haze a bit.
