about to get glasses

I'm noticing my sight getting weaker and that drives me to the thougt of getting some glasses. If you have opinions and/or thoughts on this topic, please share.

edit: is there a way to cure or to slow down the loss? I remember read somewhere about red light or so, but completely lost it. Any opinions or info on that?

LOL, that was a joke, but I should really have my eyes checked. I'm at the age where my father started wearing glasses, but reading is only where I'm starting to get issues, otherwise I'm fine.

I fought it off for a few years after I first noticed it. Then it became too challenging to read things like menus in dimly lit restaurants, so I finally bought my first pair. I have a half dozen cheapies now. Usually the hinges break or I lose them, so it's good to have spares on hand.

I highly recommend buying a cheap pair of 1.25x (the weakest) just to see the improvement they can make for you. Cheap WalMart and on-line plastic reading glasses can be bought for $1-$3 each.

Thanks for the advice. I'm going to the shop today, so I'll check what they have.
