yes, it's really weird, isn't it? For me without specs, everything's blurred except for the 10 o'clock and 4 o'clock lines which are fairly sharp in comparison!

Very hypnotic!!!

Like you John I can see the line at the 10 and 4 O'clock postion. Well only just the one line but I am very close to the screen.

The left eye, I need to go back some way befoe I get the same thing, about 1.5 - 2 meters!!!

Will try with lenses tomorrow.

Ok now i am slightly confused! Why are we numbering it 60, 30 20, when i'm going for 60, 36 18? Thanks for the chart though as have printed it off for my display at work! Very handy and just what i was going to finally finish tomorrow when i get my act together!

I have finished writing up the fb and conjunctivitis in big writing to display it, but as the wall is kinda big i need to add another line, so am thinking of adding how to take a visual acuity test and quite simply how the eye works!

Any info or pics would be very much appreciated as am out to see a new flat soon so am kinda short again on time! Thanks!
