>>>When I get my hair cut (what there still is of it), they have a tv about 6 feet from the chair, and the last time, they had a soccer game on. Unfortunately, I have to remove my glasses to get my hair cut, and so for me, it's a lot like staring at a fuzzy radio.

>>I got lasik done few years ago. It's great. Literally changed my life after 30 years of being chained to glasses. Very affordable now.

>I'm not absolutely sure, so don't tell anybody I said this, but I think that's only useful for far sightedness or short sightedness. I wear bifocals (which I hate, btw). I suppose I could get one range corrected, but then I'd still have to wear glasses for the other, so I'm not sure it'd be worth it, especially since I really have internal issues with the idea of letting somebody mess with my eyes.

Of course there are risk in any medical procedure, but I think mishaps are rare... it's a calculated risk.

And we all succumb to old age and mother nature and must wear glass eventually. :-(
