Is Something Up With My Sight

Does something out of my sight exist?

Absolutely not.You have no face, body, ears… half of 'reality' ceases to exist, until you turn around. Then the portion you couldn't see before simply assembled itself, for your pleasure and sense of security, while anything you can no longer see vaporizes and ceases to exist.This is because you are the most important thing in the universe! You occupy a favored and ultimatly superior position in the universe.Unfortunately, because none of your universe actually persists when you look away, it is such a meaningless, valueless, ephemeral universe that nothing in it has value, significance or persistence. The only way you can retain existence at all is to never close your eyes, and to obtain a hexagonal arrangement of mirrors, place yourself in the middle of them, do you can see yourself from all angles, at all times…and never again blink.Of course, this will only work if you can convince yourself that the images you see in the mirrors are really you, a tall order for someone who can believe that only those things you see exist…Whatever you do, don't ever sleep.Ever.

Have you ever thrown up just from the sight/smell of something? If so, what was it?

I get TERRIBLE migraines. I remember one when I was around 15. I was in bed with the lights off and an ice pack on my forehead. There was construction going on outside, and the smell of tar was so strong it was making me feel even more dizzy and nauseous than I already was. Then my brother, who didn’t know I had a migraine, came into my room to show me something and turned on the lights. The sudden brightness of the lights and the smell of the tar make me projectile vomit all over my bed before I could even try to grab a bucket.

Have you ever thrown up at the sight of something?

I was in the local MEPS (Military Entrance Processing Station) in Albany at age 18. I knew they were going to stick my arm for blood but I hadn’t had such an injection since I was very young. I couldn’t bring myself to shut my eyes and just deal with the sensation, and the first time I saw blood filling the vial, I felt very woozy and just about passed out, and I did vomit for that.A few years later I had an additional physical, this time done at the state military academy. An enlisted medic attempted multiple times to reach a vein…she failed three times on both arms and I vomited forcefully. A full bird colonel doctor came out and did the proper blood draw.

Something is wrong with my vision, i cant stand lights at night?

You said that you've seen an eye doctor. was it an optomotrist or an opthmologist? There's a difference between the two. If you saw just an optomotrist then you should go see an opthomologist.
The rays of light you're describing sounds kinda similar to what I used to see at night years ago. Do these rays kinda look like sunbeams coming from the bottom of light sources? Then I got diagnosed with a eye condition that many optomotrists overlooked. And that has cost me dearly. I'll never see 20/20 again, because of their negligence.
Are your eyes sensitive to light most of the time, particulary sunlight? Do you wear glasses, and if you do are things still sorta blurry when you have them on? If you answered yes to these questions you definately need to see another doctor. Tell him all your symptoms.
Hope your rays of light are just a passing thing.

Feel like something is stuck in my eye for 2 days. Help!?

Ok so last night I was laying bed minding my own business when all the sudden I got the sensation that something was stuck in my eye. I couldn't tell what it was or how it got there. It happened randomly. It felt like a grain or a spec of something. I ignored it thinking it would do away. It became persistant so I started to try to get it out by blinking, then pulling my upper eyelid over my lower to flush it out that way (thats worked for me in the past), and then I got desperate and went to go try to wash my eye out with water. Still didnt work. Much frustrated and powerless I went to sleep hoping it would come out on its own later.
I wake up the next day feel the minor sensation soemthing is in there still and I go about my day losing track of it and forgetting it. I feel it again a bit in the afternoon. Now Im trying to lay down again and it is extremely irritating causing the occasional sharp pain (but mainly when I just lay down). I can't put a clear spot of where it is. Most of the time though it feels as if it is to the right of my eye (this is my right eye having the issues btw) like instead of being up or down in the eyelids its to the right int he eye behind the regular skin. So tonight I got desperate again. I tried desperately to get wahtever is in there out by blinking, by flushing my eye out, by doing the above eyelid over the bttm eyelid trick. Ive trying rolling my eyes to the opposite direction while flushing out my eyes.

This is driving me crazy and the irritation is getting worse. Again it is magnified by gravity when I lay down (I guess in how the object is settling in my eye). After 2 days Im starting to think something is wrong and my eye would of already taken care of it by itself. This is driving me insane and I want this object out. What do I do. My eye is feeling inflamed, red, and irritated because of all this.

And before anyone asks, I dont see why anything major would get in my eye like a chunk of dirt or a bit of wood or anything like that. Yesterday I had an uneventful day and this all started randomly while I was laying in bed. Also is there anything that can be mistaken as having something in your eye? Like perhaps something else is going on and it just feels like something is in my eye. Pink Eye? Scratch? Some weird infection? I don't want to go to the doctor unless necessary and I dont want to overreact to this but its starting to become a real issue. Thank you to anyone with ideas.

Aiming a bow without a sight?

There are 2 methods to shoot bows without a sight. One is what is called point of aim, which really is just a matter of adopting something else to use as a sight, and the other is instinctive. Purely instinctive shooters, as others say shoot like one would shoot a basketball or baseball. It takes a lot of time to develop the skill. Disadvantage of purely instinctive shooting is that the range is limited. You're usually limited to within 50m, beyond that even very good instinctive shooters will find it hard to do. Reason is, once you move beyond 50m, you usually can't see the target anymore because you have to lift your bow up too high in order for your arrow to reach the target.

Point of aim is a bit easier to do. What you do is pick a spot on your bow and use that as a "sight". Most people will combine this with string walking. What you do is, at closer distances, you walk your fingers down the string a certain distance. That way while your finger is still at the same anchor point, the nock end of the arrow is up high. The result, even at 18m, you can use the tip of the arrow as "sight" and put that in the middle of the target. This is the method used by Mark Applegate a a few of his colleagues. Mark Applegate is the number 1 ranked barebow shooter in the US.

But first, before you worry about all that, concentrate on doing the rest of the form properly. If your anchor is not solid, all the aiming in the world won't help you. This is the reason I always put every beginner that go through my program on sights. That way they learn how to shoot first, then later on if they want to, they can learn how to aim without sights.

My eyes hurt when focusing on something up close such as a book, laptop screen, tv...?

An optometrist is a professional who measures your eye function and gives other screening tests as well. He or she is not a medical doctor, although their training is done on the post-college level and can last three years or more.

I suspect that you still have the ability to focus on nearby objects, but it causes you pain. Fluorescent lights, TV screens, and some computers are particularly hard on the eyes, because they actually flicker sixty times a second – too fast to perceive, but possibly enough to cause eyestrain. It helps a lot to have an incandescent lamp on, somewhere in the vicinity of your screen, to even out the illumination. I've also heard of special lenses that are optimized for computer work.

You may be slightly far-sighted, and might benefit from low-power "reading glasses" for close work. However, you may have astigmatism (unevenly curved eyeballs) or some other problem that's causing your eyestrain.

My advice: Get a referral to an ophthalmologist (an eye doctor who has an M.D. and specializes in eye conditions) and make an appointment. You may have an eye condition that an optometrist would not be able to diagnose. Sometimes it's hard to get an early appointment, and they do charge a lot. Be prepared to describe your usual lighting environment, and your TV, computer, and reading habits.

Motorcycle visor was up and something hit my eye?

Go to an eye doctor and get it looked at Don't play games with your eyesight. Once you loose your sight, that's it. That red spot indicates something penetrated your eye or is stuck in there yet. It doesn't have to be large enough to see to still be in there. Never, never, ever ride without eye protection. I never wear a helmet when I ride my bike, but you'd never find me riding without my goggles on or at a bare minimum a pair of sunglasses. Yes, there are goggles with lenses that change color from a smoked look for when it's sunny to clear when riding at night. So no excuse for not wearing them at all times. If you're going to ride with a helmet, either keep the face shield down and deal with the stagnate air inside the helmet or if you're going to ride with the face shield up, be sure to have eye protection on as well.

I'm nearsighted. Things at a distance seem blurry. Should I wear my glasses all the time, e.g. when using a laptop or cell phone? If I wear them all the time, would they affect my eyesight in any way? Will it get better or worse?

I’m speaking for myself, as I can only realistically answer that you need to listen to your optometrist.I am near-sighted. I have no problem seeing up close, so there is no point in me wearing my glasses for, well obviously looking something up close.But I do not take them off just because I want to see close. Because if I were to do that, I would find myself constantly taking them off and putting them back on. It is a complete waste of time. I only take them off when I go to sleep.I also have a low prescription, so I can see fairly well without them. But if I don’t, I feel weird, like naked.To answer the second part of your question (“If I wear them all the time, would they affect my eyesight in any way? Will it get better or worse?”), yes. Your eyesight will be affected. Your eyes will accustom to your prescription, and eventually turn worse as you wear it. So after some time, you might need a new pair.Now, I doubt looking close up with a near-sighted prescription will have any adverse affects. I do it all the time, and my eyesight hasn’t worsened.

Is there an evolutionary benefit for throwing up merely at the sight of something gross?

Vomiting is the forcible voluntary or involuntary emptying ("throwing up") of stomach contents through the mouth. This can be caused due to a number of reasons one of them is reaction to smells and odors and most disgusting things are accompanied by such smells and odors so this leads to vomiting. In my personal opinion i don't see any evolutionary benefit in this phenomenon because its neither providing us with survival benefit nor with any edge against other organisms both of which are absolutely and unequivocally necessary for evolution. So no i dont think it provides any evolutionary benefit.
