While picking up my new contacts yesterday and discussing my
prescription with my eyedoctor, we were discussing the
lenses to order for my mask. The lens come in standard
diopter sizes. I am nearsighted and my regular
amount is -3.0 to correct distance vision, but using that
amound makes close vision unreadable for such tasks as
using underwater camera and dive computer.
The eye doctor suggested maybe a -1.5 lens to be middle ground
and she showed my how much better the close vision would be
but the distance wouldn't be as clear.
How far out do I really need to worry about seeing clearly?
I thought about contacts, but I use the expensive gas perm
and at 100 each, don't want to risk them in a flood.
Any suggestions please.
