Something odd about glasses...
So there's two main types of eye problem (There's lots, but these two cover what I'm talking about right now) -- short sightedness and far sightedness.
You might think they're similar, but they couldn't be more different.
A far sighted young person can focus on near things often, but it takes great strain and effort. As they age their eyes become more brittle and they may lose that ability, but focusing close-up can require really pushing your eye and your eye muscles even when you're young. When you get glasses and you're far sighted, it takes stress off your eye.
A near sighted person often has better than 20/20 vision close to them without their glasses, but their far sight is just wrong. When you get glasses and you're nearsighted, it is like a whole new world is revealed to you.
Anyway, I'm old and far-sighted, and doing glasses repairs is a nightmare. Trying to fix your eye fixers while your eyes are broken sucks! haha
