When I first put on my reading glasses, it was a revelation. I had noticed that my eyes were getting tired easily when reading, but I didn't realize how bad it had become. As soon as I wore the glasses, not only did the words become clearer, but my eyes didn't feel as strained. I remember looking at a newspaper and being able to read every word without squinting. It was a small change but it made a big difference in my daily life. I now wear them all the time when I'm reading or doing close - up work.
Well, the first time I wore reading glasses was quite an adventure. I was in denial about needing them for a long time. But when I finally tried them on, I was amazed at how much I had been missing. I noticed all the little imperfections in the print that I hadn't been able to see before. It took a while to get used to having them on my face, though. I kept accidentally touching them as if they were something foreign.
