That's why you have to either take selfies or have some one take your pic with different frames on. Then look with your glasses or send pics to others for opinions.

It takes me forever to pick out frames. I usually take a few pictures of the ones I like the best, take them home and ask DH/DD. And then go back to buy them. For me, it is a more serious decision than buying a purse because I wear them everyday for 1-2years until my next pair.
I won't have to wait too long. I was already told at the time of Lasik that it doesn't fix that. I will still need reading glasses eventually.That's why you have to either take selfies or have some one take your pic with different frames on.

It doesn't. I was corrected 20/20 I one eye and the other left alone not done at 20/40 (least bad eye). I'm almost 47 and still don't need cheater glasses but will some day.
All three?!? I'd love to! Are you messing with me? [emoji848] I definitely love all of them!Progressives are bifocals without the line. I'm not looking old. I'm kind of rethinking spending the money for it since I don't use glasses to read. I was thinking about work where I didn't want to start breaking out the readers. I figured it would look just like regular glasses. We'll see I'll guess.
I'm in shock with a couple hundred. I've only gotten regular glasses and they were only $50 after insurance.
All three!
It's been a term since at least the 40s. It means you use them just to read. Not to do other things. They often aren't prescription, just magnification.
I knew that because I watch old movies! I haven't heard anyone use that term in my lifetime.
I love classic movies. All my friends use the term. All in their 40s.
I've only lived half my life in USA. My other half was overseas. Only if my mom waited 2 months to give birth I'd have been born an American, in California. She was young and didn't know any better and hopped on the plane 7 months pregnant, to be with my dad in another country. Otherwise I'd have definitely known about cheater glasses! Lol!
I grew up in California and have lived here most of my life. I never heard it until I started watching 30s and 40s movies.
Ohhh I’m glad someone asked Bc I was going to lol. I’ve never heard that term before but I like it.
I moved to Southern California from Japan when I was 11. I had dual citizenship until I turned 18 and then I became a full American. Coincidentally, my grandma was my MIL’s homeroom teacher when she was in high school. I met him here.
Perhaps. I'm a Midwesterner and am familiar with the term! I have also worked in healthcare for the past 11 years, so maybe that has something to do with it.
