Need New Reading Glasses

My hubby is due for an eye exam and new glasses, but he won't go as it is just not safe enough right now. We read about an optical business who had a covid outbreak because they just cannot practice the 2 meter distancing and you have to put your face up to that machine, although that should be sanitized, for your prescription, not to mention trying on the different frames. He will go when he feels it is safe enough or he has had a vaccination.

I had glasses made about 50 years ago and never wore them. After a second pair of glasses, I did better on the computer screen. My next pair was bifocals, I hate 'em! I'm sick of trying to adjust and like you, I'm going to a simple pair of reading glasses.

Yes, I am due for new glasses. I have an appointment in June.

Our glasses were replaced not too long ago so we are right for the moment.

I have myopia and for now I think I don't need new glasses. I have heard people complaining about bifocals glasses too.

i just got the call from the eye doctor saying i need to get new glasses yesterday!

It is better to go for progressive glasses than bifocal or just reading glasses. They cost little more but convenient. Your long and short sight vision is in the same glass.

I thought I did but my eyes improved some. The problem I have is in the lights at night. Instead of being points of light they are elongated which I don't like at all. So I'm just watchful when I drive at night.

@marlina I have a pair of glasses that are for seeing far away and then reading glasses. Because I use the computer I cannot make any more changes.

I used to have progressive lenses. Now I just buy readers at the Dollar store. My vision far away is still very good.

I got new ones last year, so it's next year for me for new glasses.

i am wearing glasses .... since 5 years old... haha ... i have not remembered myself without glass lol

Yes i need new glasses,My eyesight is not good but actually i don't like wearing it

Yes .it is on my list now I think I need to have a check up first..I can sill read even small letter.But I noticed long reading my head ache.

I don't wear glasses now but who knows in this coming years. Hopefully I won't need one for a long long time.

I don’t have one but I’m going to buy my mom a new pair of glasses

I know how you feel. My eyesight is not good but the doctor says I can wait for the cataract surgery on left eye. The right eye is done already. I also do not want it now due to the virus. I have reading glasses and I use progressive during other times.

No, I don't need new glasses real soon.

I don't need glasses yet.

Looks like I also need new glasses. At first I wore minus glasses. But I now have trouble reading at close range using my glasses, so I have to take them off first. Maybe I need cylinder glasses.
