What the Heck does that say?? OMG move it closer please...

Noooo, not at all. If you can read without glasses, you'll be fine. Glasses tend to make your eyes lazy anyway. You're probably looking at the computer screen for too long and will find that when you have your eye test, there's very little wrong with your eyes. Brightest Blessings my friend.

No, no.... move it further LOL For me it started about 3 years ago. At first was only the small print in medication bottles and stuff like that. It was so frustrating, but since most reading material is not that small I didn't pay much attention. Then some sites on the net were looking fuzzier and I had to make an effort to read some parts. It got to the point that I could read my books but it seemed like everything was a bit blurry. I had to finally pay attention LOL I can see far with no problem. It's just close and with small letters, but it's scary for someone that never had trouble seeing perfectly grrrrr... even my handwriting seems blurry if I don't have glasses! Another thing I noticed is that things seem to have less contrast not much, but enough to notice, specially when I don't have much light - and this is the person that use to read at night with the light of the lamp post! -. As for you, if it really is a big problem for you to read, maybe you should stop until you see your eye doctor, but if there is a comfortable way or distance for you to read then I don't see why you shouldn't. And.... I don't really know what goes first fo rme it seems that it was everything at the same time LOL

Don't feel too bad! At least you are 37. I had to wear reading glasses starting in high school unfortunately. Now I found out that I actually have a reading disability, which is why I can see close up just fine but I cannot read. Now I read almost exclusively on audio. When not on audio, I use a screenreader. I think hearing actually gets worse before sight in most people. But I try to keep my hearing good as much as I can.

Now you know better miss lady, if you keep reading your eyes are going to get worst and there is nothing wrong with glasses or contacts it makes you look more sophisticated LOL... I have the same problem I hate wearing my glasses and I don't wear contacts but I can't see without them catch 22 I say go get them so you can continue to enjoy your reading

Hey momma! Now calm down! It's not the end of the world to need reading glasses! I needed them when I was about 40! I was trying to read the back of a cassette case when I suddenly realized that I couldn't read that tiny print! So it went on from there! And all I needed then was reading glasses! It's no big deal! It happens! Now you do know that little children can need glasses so it has nothing to do with age most times! But, if you have never needed glasses the by the time you reach late 30's or early 40's you will probably need at least to have reading glasses which are simply magnifying glasses to make the print seem closer or larger! Really it's not a big deal! Just get your eyes checked!

I started needing glasses relatively young, while I was in high school. It would probably be a good idea to stop reading too much until you get glasses or contacts so that you don't strain your eyes. By the way, don't worry about not being able to read something ten feet in front of you. My sister's prescription for contacts isn't the highest possible, but without them, she can't read something unless it's about one foot in front of her.

I've been legally blind all my life, and with my particular problem, the only way I can see something is to hold it as close to my face as possible. I'm "only" 27. In my case I got so used to holding things close, and it worked so well for me, I didn't get glasses. I tried them, but they never really worked. I prefered to just do things as I'd always done them.

Well, straining your eyes to read is only gonna make the vision even more blur. Take a break. The most you'd be out of mylot for a week or two till your glasses are ready. Give your eyes a break. Who knows, with time away from the computer, you make end up with more topics to start discussions when you are back after your glasses are done!
