picked up my new glasses yesterday; after 2 years of juggling 3 pairs (4 if you count prescription sunglasses) I now have one pair for all occasions. Feels incredibly strange, and now I can see how old I actually look. hm. No wonder they say 'rose tinted spectacles'.
So, when I was choosing a pair, I jokingly turned to t'husband and asked him if they made me look 10 years younger? Quick as a flash, the salesman quipped 'fifteen'. I tittered dutifully, but my eyes lasered him 'don't push it, lul' Unless those specs can gently botox my entire face and coat it in a dewy non creasing foundation, they do not in any way make me look younger. Maybe less squinty, at a pinch?

I'm currently trialling some multi-focal contact lenses that give long vision for my myopia, short vision for age-related reading, and fixes my astigmatism. They don't change how old I look (I have some funky prescription Ray Bans for that), but I feel less middle-aged by not having to hold a menu at arm's length to read.
ReplyDeletelet me know if they are any good? These specs are proving a bugger to get used to >.<
