Is the print getting smaller?

Welcome to age 40!!!!! Always had good eyesight and now need reading glasses. Every couple years they get stronger. Take a phone book to drug store and see which pair you can read the best with. They work good but don't get the cheap plastic lens glasses.

Or maybe just a page from it.

Amazing how many things are printed in little bitty teeny tiny letters. Menus, ingredients, instructions, etc. Have had to make some changes, like having every size of battery at home because no way to ascertain while still at the store. I own five pairs of glasses now. Keep one pair in the tackle box at all times. It is the most useful pair, because it is the only one whose location I can rely on.

Have carefully considered laser surgery, but.....not all doctors are good at it. I will wait some more because new techniques are developed every year.

Welcome to your forties- they all say.

For some reason as we age the arms get shorter!!! You know your realy in trouble when you need glasses to find your glasses. Someone suggested a beeper on them but then I need the glasses to find the beeper. THE JOYS OF AGE!!!!!!

You may also just hit Ctrl and use the wheel on your mouse to make the print larger and smaller.

Actually, I know the print isn't getting any smaller.... it's my eyesight that's getting worse. I've been fortunate not to need glasses up 'til now, but it seems my luck will soon run out.

I wanted to share a trick I use when on the 'net:

To make text larger press Ctrl and + at the same time. Press again to make it even larger. Ctrl and - will make it smaller.

That little trick is letting me put off getting my eyes checked.

awesome!!! great stuff. just took my reading glasses off wow l can see again writing anyhow...best regards frank

Before anyone runs out to get lasik in order to get rid of their reading glasses they should go to this site and learn what procedure would benefit them. www.vision-institute.com To get rid of those glasses you would most likely need a procedure called CK not Lasik.

For the hunters that wear glasses a little tip. I wore the aviator type glasses they have big lenses and fogged up bad, switched to smaller lenses almost no fogging. The smaller the lenses the better.
