Here's something you may not have known about Jake Gyllenhaal:  He's legally blind, and he's been that way all his life.  His vision is 20/1250.  (!!!) Since he was six years old, he's had to wear either intensive corrective lenses or Coke-bottle glasses to see.  He even used to have a lazy eye, but it corrected itself. Still it's not all bad.  He says, quote, "I like to think it's advantageous.  I've never known anything else.  When I can't see in the morning, before I put on my glasses, it's a place where I can be with myself."
