Hello everyone.
For the past days I am actually having a hard time reading and typing especially using phones.
I lost my reading glasses.
Yep. I used to hate it and I am in denial of using it but have come at peace with it. I accepted the fact that my eyes need the help from the glasses but only for reading.
I used to have two pairs of it but the other one broke so I throw it already. Now the other one I cannot find. And I am trusting auto correct of iPhone to work this out.
So forgive me for some typo errors in some comments.
Do you use eye glasses/ reading glasses?

@rakski I can see that you have yet to do it looking at the typos in your post

@ridingbet I think so. This afternoon, I tried the readiy to wear reading glasses you can buy in optical shops. There is no available for my grade. I just tried 2 grades higher than mine but also trying the shape of the frame which looks like a half circle, lo and behold, it gave me a much better eyesight. So I might as well visit first the my ophtha or maybe the optometrist for a new lens grade

@rakski so, if you cannot find it anymore, will you visit your optometrist and have another pair of specs?

Why don't you buy the glasses that hangs around the neck? I just forgot the name of that type of glasses but I'm sure you can find one in the optical clinic/shop. It has a magnet eitheir in-between the two glass frames or at the back of the neck area.

I use reading glasses and, above all, glasses to watch TV. I have broken a couple of pairs by falling asleep with the glasses on. Now I buy sturdy frames.

@rakski The glasses were not broken. But the frame got distorted.

I have been wearing glasses for 36 years.. I misplace them often so I always have 3 pairs every time I need new ones..
I hope you have found yours by now..

I do wear glasses and have for a long time. Didn't need them when I was young but do now. I can't do anything up close without them.

I have glasses for distance, but I seldom use them. I guess I like things with fuzzy edges lol!

There was a point before I got glasses that I couldn't read anything unless it was on the phone or computer where I could resize the text to something bigger. Otherwise it was just a blurry smudge.
