    When was your last eye exam? Do you know your vision level?

    I have glaucoma in one eye, and the other is at risk. So I go for a pressure check every three months if all is well.

    Other than that, I get a full exam every year like anyone else, and updated glasses prescriptions every 2 years. I don't know my vision numbers, but I live my my pressure numbers!

    I haven't gotten my eyes examined for years, the closest is when I take the yearly driver's permit test and they have you read from the 3rd line.

    And I don't know what the numbers are, I think it's like 20/200 or something, very nearsighted.

    Every two years. Just had them done last month. They said my prescription didn't change but I think I still want a new pair of glasses. I can't adjust these anymore to keep them from sliding off and I think I'm going for bi-focals or progressive lenses. I haven't been able to see up close (like to read) with them for years and I've finally had it with talking them off.

    Last exam was two years ago. I'm going later this month. I got new glasses that year and my eye doctor said my vision hasn't changed much from the last prescription. I don't know exactly what it is, but I know I'm nearsighted as hell.

    I have not had them checked since I was 20. I absolutely need to get in and get glasses for driving.

    Need glasses to see but can't read with them. My eye doc says I only need the exam every couple years. Not sure about the numbers but like some of the others posting, very nearsighted.

    Same here. I think my last eye exam was in 2000.
