 @e5bb3278 always makes me wonder if it was better to squint, but that can bring on headaches. Mine are for reading but it also bugs me that wearing them, means keeping wearing them. My day is pretty much staring at 3 monitors, I took the distance measurement, and had glasses made up especially for this purpose. Otherwise I use cheap Clicks glasses for bedtime reading. 
 @771c7916 it really feels like I was fine before forcing myself to wear them and now my eyes are just plain lazy. Going to have to stop wearing them a month or so before getting my eyes tested again otherwise they'll just tell me my eyes are worse and I'll get even worse ones 😩😭 
 @e5bb3278 yep it also worries me that the eye tester places are quick to sell super expensive glasses, with plenty of upsells. In future I'm going to take their script and buy online. 
 @771c7916 are there places selling online? 🤔 I didn't even think of that.. Lemme Google 💻 
 @e5bb3278 yes definitely. I last saw two very good ones that would accept prescriptions, and also allowed you to use a photo of yours to see what they would look like etc.
