One of the best things about hitting middle age has been my eyes.
I used to only be able to focus about 1/2 inch from my eye.
But since getting the middle aged slightly further sighted, I can use my phone at a reasonable distance away without my glasses, so I’ve been enjoying doing a lot of stuff on my phone without my glasses the last few years. Love it.
Tried contacts at 18. “gas permeable”. Clear vision; felt like sand in the eyes – but I got worried I was going to get my eyes gouged out by a woman passing by after midnight who went to the same “women in media” presentation that had the anti-rape class afterwords which includes “don’t be afraid to go for the eyes; practice with your thumbs on grapes to get used to the squish feeling”.
So, I stopped wearing them after that lol
