Yeah, I added an overhead light above my recliner for when I'm reading.
That sentence made me feel so old I can't stand it.

In my experience with my father, you tend to lose the ability to read in low light earlier than needing reading glasses. He's used his phone flashlight longer than the combination of both
An eye doctor told me the same thing and it checks out. It gets harder to read in low-contrast environments and a flashlight, increasing phone brightness, etc helps.
So that just means I'm on my way to needing readers? no macular degeneration or some other bullshit of the sort?
Ugh... Yeah, had my eyes checked 2 weeks ago and my doc said in the next couple years I'll need them.Everyone over 40 is on their way to needing readers.
You can stand it? You have one of those recliners that lifts you out if it too??Yeah, I added an overhead light above my recliner for when I'm reading.

mentally and emotionally, I'm still 23. So I'll never need readers.Everyone over 40 is on their way to needing readers.
Got a question. Not too long ago I discovered that when I'm having trouble reading fine print, shining a bright light on it is at least as good (maybe slightly better) than using a magnifying glass. Is that a normal condition? Doesn't seem normal and I've never heard anyone else talk about it.

i have one eye that is near sighted and 1 eye that is far sighted, my prescription hasn't changed but my eye doctor gave me two prescriptions 1 for driving (i actually don't need glasses cuz 1 eye is 20/20 but it does help w/ night driving) and 1 for reading.
i just walked past the eye/ear station in costco, it's a free exam...Fuckkk..... Concerts, working around loud equipment, and loud headphones really do hurt your hearing. Man I am going to be 50 in June and I already have the transition glasses and now hearing aids?!??!?!?!
