This is very likely age-dependent.

When I was in my 20s, this was absolutely not a problem.

When I hit my 30s, I started wearing glasses instead of contacts basically all the time, and it wasn't a problem.

Now that I'm in my 40s, I'm having to take my glasses off to read a monitor and most things that are closer than my arm's reach.



Wait until you get to 50 and you have to take OFF your glasses to read things that are small or close.

This is the most annoying part of all my vision problems.


Hah, I'm already there in my 40s! I'm seriously considering getting a strap for my glasses - right now I just hook them into my shirt, but they'll occasionally fall out when I bend over for something, and it's only a matter of time before they break or go into a sewer.
