14 years, and 4 eyes.

     So i have one interesting week. For the past 4 weeks I've been having trouble reading real well, so my mom made an appointment with the eye Dr. So last Friday was my appointment. We got there at about 2:15 for a 2:30 appointment.
     We got back into the room, did all the eye tests with the eye Dr. and then he said I would need to get reading glasses. Ok, so yesterday we went and picked them up. He said my problem was I was having trouble reading the near sighted stuff so when i went to read the farsighted stuff my eye muscles did not relax the way they should.
      So now I can see to read again, and I love the glasses. I'm not to self-coscious about it either. I think they look great! =]

And as soon as I can I will take a picture for all my gather friends to see. =]

Awesome! I had the same problem about a month ago. I've been wearing reading glasses since I was fifteen but in the past year my eyes have gotten worse. Now I have bifocal glasses but I thin I look awesome in them! I love wearing glasses. I'm glad you like yours. I'm glad you can see.

Glasses aren't too bad. They tend to fog up when one enters the house in the middle of winter though :(

Glasses aren't bad and they can make you look very distinguished :) Glad you're seeing clearly again.

You should look fine! I have had glasses for 27 years. and while they don't suit me, i know that i need them. Oh well! If I had contacts to wear during the fitting for my glasses, then I would have made a better choice. LOL
