The Man Hiding Behind The Lenses

Wow. So my first hours in the world of wearing glasses have been an adventure. The eye doctor advises me that I can choose whether to wear my glasses all the time or only when I am reading. They are bifocals intended to help both my reading and distance sight. The intermediate range is where all the fun seems to be.

Walking up and down stairs makes me feel like I'm on a roller coaster.

Things are blurry or very sharp depending on the angle of my head (between reading and looking across the room and further).

I reached for a bottle of Coke on my desk and missed the top of it.

Now, I don't mind falling down stairs or being nauseous. But, if I can't grab a bottle of Coke...

My daughters assured me that the frames really set off my gray hair and make me look wiser. Tremendous!

So, encourage me if you see me stumble past. Help the poor old man get a grip on his Coke!
