My dad had 20/10 vision. He was always first to identify enemy aircraft. They didn't have onboard radar at the time.

Wearing glasses still has issues. I have astigmatism, and so if I turn my eyes but not my head, I receive a warped view of the world. This is why I was simply terrible at baseball, tennis, etc. My brain could not adapt to this. I have difficulties with depth perception as a result, too.

I was more or less born to be a nerd. It's pointless to fight my fate :-)
