Yes, it it condescending. If you ‘need’ reading specs, then get out of the grocery check out line where you can get your ‘reading specs’ and get the prescription filled for the bi- (or tri-)focals you really need.

Hey, guy, I wear contacts, and have only recently needed reading glasses. And, if wearing them, I do look over the tops so I can see the person I’m talking with. If this offends you, so be it. Take your ugly elsewhere.
