I do.

My eyesight is so bad that, without my glasses, I cannot see the numbers on my iPhone, even when using the big number display in standby mode. About a decade ago I got a cheap no name thing off of Amazon with a 4” high LED display. That I can see!

Story time. It's Christmas, I'm 10yo, I've asked for and received a projection alarm clock from my parents.

I rushed to bed that night, set the clock, turned the lights off, got into bed, took off my glasses and... realised I couldn't see the projected time on the ceiling.

I'm very nearsighted and the giant LED clock has been awesome.
