This is not a joke... If you can pass, you can safely turn on your
ignition key again and cancel your annual eye examination... However, you
should be able to find them in 20 seconds.


Can you find the "C" ??? (Good exercise for the eyes!) I think this is the
hardest one of the 3!

I think these things are kind of fun, really.. I can usually find them right away.


I can't even remember when my last eye exam was..

found them all within seconds. I have very close to 20/20 vision though and just had an eye test. That is interesting

The botoom two were easy for me, it was finding the C!
I know I need to go, since even with my glasses I am 'squintey' and I've run out of contacts again. You'd think I'd try to remember

I'm so lazy....lol

Sheesh, I am such a priss. I know this was just for fun, but I feel compelled to say please don't skip going to the eye doctor -- and pleeeease go to a real ophthalmologist, not just an optometrist. Here's why:

Several years back, my mom went for her annual eye appointment, which she has always kept like clockwork because that's just her way. She hadn't noticed anything wrong with her eyes at all -- but when the ophthalmologist took the photos of the insides of her eyes, he discovered that she had developed narrow-angle glaucoma (also called closed-angle glaucoma), and was within a few days of going blind! It can even happen overnight, in fact, if you have this narrow-angle condition.

Once it was discovered, though, it was easily curable by a simple laser surgery -- no problem. It's often hereditary, so my brother and I both got tested right away. Neither of us has narrow angles, but I did find that I had glaucoma as well (the regular kind), and damage had already begun to occur, so I had to get started on daily eyedrops to keep it from worsening.

So... find yourself a good ophthalmologist and go every year! Please!

It's not hard for me at all - I have synaesthesia and can spot them instantly because I see different letters/numbers/words as different colours. I do need to have an eye test tho

Mercy, the 6 and the N were easy, but the C took me awhile. Of course, I had lasix surgery that didn't go as well as it should have, so that probably explains it. ( I see a 'ghost' image on everything)

Epona, that's fascinating! I've heard of such things, but I don't know anything about what causes the brain to do that. I'd love to know more...?

There are loads of websites out there about it as there has been a recent surge in scientific research and interest in it. I found this one to be interesting, particularly the Q&A page of the site, but google will turn up tons of interesting sites and articles for you! If you want American search results use the American spelling which is 'synesthesia', I always forget that you spell it without the a!

I have colour synaesthesia for letters, numbers, words, voices, and music (pitch). Days of the week, months of the year, people's names, and musical tone also have shape and texture. I get it from my mum (it tends to be hereditary) - she 'sees' music not as colour, but as lines at different angles. I wouldn't be without it, it is very useful when tuning musical instruments as I can do it by ear and by sight!
