the damage to both my eyes was such that my left eye i had a giant ryuken swish around any point source of light (leds on devices, car headlamps, etc). The right eye was like 3 dim blurry copies around a point light source.
Eventually, i was able to count 8 distinct "copies" in my left eye. It made trying to determine what was in front of me at night nearly impossible, and i stopped driving until after the medication they gave me worked.
The Eye-Q device has a red and a green "bar" and those rotate with each "test", you push buttons on the device until you see a yellow bar appear distinct from the red and green bars, then you hit "ok", it rotates, spreads the bars apart, and you start again.
What's interesting is i never failed to get that yellow bar with the eye-q - i'd have expected that to be synonymous with getting a clear image from the optometrist tool - which copilot tells me is called a phoropter. To be silly, i will pronounce that "fuh-rope-ter" and see if anyone notices.
edit; i just checked, right eye i can see 4 lights on my NAS blinking, left eye i see at least 8 without glasses, only 4 with. These aren't very bright, so i'll have to remember to test outside at night with a planet or a distant street light. a single copy of a light source isn't as bad as 4 or 8 or a giant swish!
2: I know the doubling you're talking about when looking through sights. There's something about the way parallax works that i don't think it's "tricked" me in the past. I wonder now if i could group, at all?!
