    Wow, I will not complain about my -12 eyeglass lenses anymore either. I'm so glad he got some made so he can see! and bless the people who worked on them!

      Since this guy isn't complaining, nobody who wears glasses should as they all have better eyesight than him.

    He's 59 years old with severe myopia, keratoconus, strabismus and amblyopia. His eye disease doesn't stop him to become a great photographer. I wish you all the best Mr. Jan.

    -108 ?!??! I've been doing lenses for like 10 years and haven't done beyond a -15.00 . This is crazy. I wonder what his acuity is after the glasses. It can't be better than like 100/20

      in the article they said that it improved his vision from 1/20 to 1/10.

      @@raphael_ko never heard of 1/20 or 1/10. Unless they are using a different measuring system than the Snellen.
      A lot of baseball players have eye surgery or Lasik to increase their vision to 20/15. But 20/5 vision is the best recorded vision possible for humans to have. It is the vision equated to the sight of eagles and the only creature with better vision is a hawk, which has 20/2 vision. While having 20/5 vision is possible, it is probably highly uncommon.
      But either way 1/20 isn't possible, that would mean that the person sees at 1 foot what the average human sees at 20 feet. If that was reversed to 20/1 that would mean that the person sees at 20 feet what average people see at 1 foot, which has never been recorded.

      @G E T R E K T If you can find me an Optometrist in America who signs an encounter with an acuity of 20/1 I'd pay you my salary.

      @@DustinPlatt I think it's because of the metric system. Slovakia uses the metric system, so 6/6 is the same as 20/20. 6 is the numerator when the letter chart is placed at 6 metres, which is the standard, whereas 1 is used as the numerator when the letter chart is held at 1 metre from the patient, which may be needed in low vision cases.

    It is sick that people can reach such high ametropia. I told my teachers about this video and they just didn´t want to belive until i showed it to them. They were amazed how this can be and so on :D
    Videos like this make me love my job even more :)
    Great job from the optician and Essilor.

      Well, it's nothing compared to this man's magnitude of myopia and actually very common. Lots of nearsighted people have prescriptions of -5. Even -10 is not uncommon.

      And apparently, this guy's eyesight is way worse than yours! But it's great to see him looking so happy. He is proof that even if your prescription is -100 or beyond you can still live a happy life being able to see.
