I've been wearing contacts all my life in order to get 20/20 vision. And until last week I always had to have my brightness on the highest setting while I was at the office with fairly bright overhead lighting. while using the computer at home with the lights off/dim, I still had to have the brightness set to 4 bars shy of the brightest setting in order to see everything properly. And I never understood when I would see people on here saying they had their brightness set to the lowest settings and it was plenty bright for them to see.
Last friday I had LASIK done. And since the surgery I now have 20/15 vision in both eyes, which was expected. But one thing I did not expect was the difference in brightness. Now in the same office setting I have the brightness set to 40-50% brightness and it's still almost to bright. And at home I set the brightness level to 1 bar and it's more than enough to see every detail on the screen. In fact, I now wish there was a lower brightness setting than the lowest bar.
The best part is that, while running on battery, I can now get another 30-40 minutes out of usage with the brightness set so much lower.
Now if I could just figure out how to get my volume to not jump to 70% when I plug my headphones in I would be very pleased.
