I have 1x reading glasses that I bought at Walmart (per the eye doctor's recommendation) and use for reading fine print on medicine bottles, ingredients on food products and shampoo, et al. I finally had to admit that the print
wasn't getting smaller and it was my eyes :o) I actually have a prescription that has 1x on the bottom and nothing on the top. I've never used them though because I only need them when reading small print and I'd rather have larger glasses for that then try to look through the very bottom of glasses.
>My step-brother, who is four months older than me, got bifocals a couple of years ago. He called them "old man glasses". I've been resisting getting them ever since that comment.

>>About a year ago I noticed that I had to start holding books further away when reading. Now
that is a true sign of aging! :o) I went for the full eye exam right after and he told me it was normal and I was lucky that it hadn't started earlier. Yikes.
