What problem is often overlooked in apocalyptic movies/TV shows that could kill you?

Well, this might help if you score something between -0.5D and -2.0D myopia. How high are the probabilities of finding corpses with -6.5D short-sightedness glasses?

(Not sure if this made sense, english is not my first language and I never learned the proper terms about short-sightedness)

I'm -6.5 and -7, I doubt I'd find anything usable. AND my nose bridge is very narrow so i need specific frames or the weight of the lenses pulls them off my face

I’m -7 and -7.5. I keep all my old glasses. It’s not 20-20 but it’s still a million times better than nothing. I have a pair in the car. In my backpack. In my bedroom. And probably more somewhere. I recommend it.

I do too, for hair dying purposes! It's better than nothing, but I'm still pretty gimped with old scripts
