AVweb’s Question of the Week …

Gemini Sparkle

Key Takeaways:

  • A previous poll on vision showed that the largest group of respondents (33%) use bifocals, with another 24% wearing glasses for distance vision and 22% for close-up tasks.
  • Only a minority of readers (18% combined) reported having excellent vision either naturally (14%) or due to LASIK surgery (4%).
  • This week's poll asks readers to express their concerns about the quality of service if the FAA chooses to outsource the Flight Service Station (FSS) system.

*** PREVIOUS RESULTS ***

Last week, AVweb asked you to look at the giant chart, cover one eye, and tell us – just how good is your vision?

14% of respondents see just fine without glasses or surgery.  Another 4% of readers have great vision because of LASIK.

24% of readers wear glasses for distance vision, and another 4% claimed to have some near-sightedness, but not enough to merit glasses.  22% of you need glasses for up-close matters (like reading AVweb).

And the biggest majority of those who responded (33%) say they see just fine – with bifocals.
