Having had a recent sight test, and with some contact lenses in to test, I finally got to see what it's like when someone else puts my glasses on, quite a shock! I'm myopic and have an astigmatism in both eyes, so I started thinking, would it be possible to create a lens which replicates what my uncorrected vision is like?

Here's the script.

Dist Sph Cyl Axis
Right -6.00 -2.25 50
Left -6.00 -1.50 135


This is purely out of interest...

At -6 other people could probably replicate your long vision by smearing a thick layer of Vaseline on a piece of glass and looking through it biggrin

This simulator appears to do what you want. It's looking a wee bit blurry I have to say smile I have myopia as well, but only -1.5 and -2.0.
