Sounds pretty cool. I’m guessing expensive.

I just started having trouble reading with my glasses on. I’m 46.

Is possible to simply go back to wearing contacts, then put on reading glasses, as I may need them to read the fine print? My siblings all use reading glasses.

$895....which for brand new technology, isn't all that bad.

I think CD players were $2,000 in the late '70s.

A good pair of trifocals (my elderly Dad has them) is over $400. And of course Lasik is still thousands.

I'm 48, (yep, 2 months older than Obama) and I'm just now wearing low power reading glasses.

There's a nice super lightweight brand of reading glasses, Calabria, made with special unbreakable nylon frames of a material called TR-90 Grilamid, which are terrific...don't even know they are there really.
