Reading glasss.....be honest

[CARTEL]

I have been wearing glasses for the last 6 years. I have to where them all the time (for near and far). I am basically blind without them.

I don't have contact lenses because you have to touch your eyeball to take them in and out, and that sort of freaks me out.

I have a standard set of frames

Loved your hustle on the Lakers back in the day, Kurt.

I'm 48 and near sighted. I wear glasses for seeing things at a distance but can see up close perfectly. All my peers wear reading glasses though. Every single one of them.

43 and I have put off getting reading glasses for 3 years now. However, eyesight is really falling off a cliff the last few months, so I will be visiting an optician in the next few weeks.

Hit me at 43.

Sounds like it is normal for this to start in the 40s. And many web sites mention that too. However remember a few hundred years ago the average life expectancy in England for example was what 35? We are living like kings these days compared to back then. Even Dindus complaining about being held down by the white devil have it great in comparison!

Lately I find myself having trouble reading the small texts on jars and stuff at the supermarket...
And this week I noticed I need a bit more light reading magazines at night.

If you got reading glasses, ar what age did you start needing them ?   

At about 44 years it started and became a real problem before one year had passed. Really rapid decline.

I have a set of progressive readers with book and typical computer distances.

Shit's happening with me too. Have always prided myself with never needing braces when I was a kid as I had perfect straight white teeth,never needed glasses because I could circumsize a skeeters peter at 100yds with an HK93 and always had thick dark brown almost black hair.

  Now, at only 48 mind you, my top teeth I had all pulled in Apr and waiting for new ones in another month. Then the bottoms come out in Sep. Now I can barely read a newspaper without having to move it closer or further to adjust my already squinting eyes. I still have fairly thick hair...except it's pure f**king white now. I usually wear it tight in a fade so trying to keep it colored without looking like a 90yr old heeb in Fla wearing a jet black rug or comb over n black socks with sandals.
  Damn aging sucks ass esp if you abused your body like I did, treating it like a chemically themed amusement park.

     It's weird cause everyone in my immediate family wears glasses except me. My brother n sisters all wore them since little kids and my parents wore them as long as I can remember. Guess I'll be hitting up Walgreens or cvs this weekend.

I believe all of these type of threads are seeking personal info that can be used to hack the account and steal it for Shizzo.

44 for me. I've got about five pairs of cheap ones, all over the house and car.

Too bad about your teeth. It is good that you are taking care of this. Rotten health can ruin you teeth and rotten teeth can ruin your health. I'm lucky in the teeth department. Mine are white and straight, I have 30 of them (two were removed when I started wearing braces at 12). Before the braces, my teeth were pathetically buck. My two lower wisdom teeth have gold crowns as a result of my bad habit of chewing ice.

White hair looks pretty good on most folks, I wouldn't color it....it's too much work and it rarely makes one look younger.

I've remained healthy as I've aged, for which I am very grateful. However, I do sometimes miss being in my twenties.

Why were your teeth pulled?
