It actually briefly made me worse at batting, in baseball. Took some getting used to.

When I first got glasses circa age 9, my first remark upon leaving the shop was, "oh, wow, I can see the leaves from here!" (standing under ca. 20-30 foot tall tree)

My mother later said she had never felt so guilty.
