Reading matter. 4/5/2007

I just got back from lunch in the towers with someone, and realised something when we were sitting down to eat.  I’ve had this problem for quite a while, and I guess the time has finally come when I have to do something about it.  So we walked into the optician, and I got myself fitted for a pair of reading glasses.  They’ll be ready next week.

Guess age is finally catching up with me.  I was really surprised at the difference in the clarity of my vision when the optician was testing my eyes.  I must have gotten used to it over the years, and compensated to suit.

Now I’m just waiting for the day when I’m going to need bi-focals.

Or you could kill yourself NOW, and avoid the accute embarassment and humiliation to come?

I’ve worn glasses all my life, and a few years ago, I got Progressive Addition Lenses. The do a very good job of correcting one’s vision, with no lines to show you have bifocals/trifocals, though they are rather expensive. Now the doctor tells me I have the beginning of a cataract on my right (formerly better) eye. Thats getting older for you, you adjust the best you can, try to adapt, and live with it.
