I figured it was going to happen at some point, but finally gave in and went to the eye doctor. Sitting in front of a computer for work 12-14 hours a day over the last 6-7 years combined with getting older has made my slight astigmatism go from being not so bad to not being able read unless squinting. Going through all the tests and it's a night and day difference with the prescription. I'm not against glasses, I need them to be able to see and read the damn TV, I just don't know what to expect with the transition from not wearing them the last 40 years to now needing them.
I think the hardest thing I'm trying to wrap my head around is the sunglasses I've worn for probably the last decade, ones that just fit and feel right, will no longer work for me according to the optometrist. From what she said, the lenses on the Oakley Fuel Cells are too curved and I need something more boxy/flat for the lenses… Unfortunately that style is something I absolutely despise when it comes to sunglasses, especially when it comes to working on job sites as that wrap around style is mandatory.
It might not be as bad as I am imagining, but just a lot of information thrown at me all at once.
