I have been very short-sighted all my life, but am now having the usual aging problem of not being able to see close-by as well!! Unfortunately, they don't cancel each other :-) I need fairly strong glasses for driving, so they tend to be too strong for close work. I had a special reading strenght pair made which cost me another $300 plus, and it only pasted for about a year. Since my normal glasses already cost in the $400-500, I thought "b... this!", and went and bought myself a pair of those cheap reading glasses at the chemist! They work perfectly well. I may look a bit funny with 2 pairs of glasses on, but who cares? Think of all the bobbins I can buy with the saved $280...
