I'm fortunate that as I've worn corrective lenses for 30 years...majority of that in contacts ....my prescription has stayed the same I'm actually planning Lasik this year at some point.

I am not an expert on this so do your own research. I believe once you do lasik or the like the option of multifocal lens is limited. Something about doing cornea shaping meaning you'll be doing that every 4-5 years the rest of your life. Not sure. Find out before doing it.

I went in the end of last year to discuss lasix. I've been in contacts for 35+ years, no change in the far prescription, but now the contacts are bifocal.
Regular lasix - $4k Lens replacement/preemptive cataract - $11k They suggested I await a proper 25% cataract occlusion and health insurance would cover the lens replacement. I don't want to wait that long, but Lotto Second Chance hasn't come thru with that $15k yet |

I did lasik 20 years ago. Was seeing better than 20/20 the next day. Eyesight is still perfect for distance, no halo effect at night either. Wear readers now, starting at age 50. Lasik, to me, was as life changing as getting married and having kids. Not even kidding. Mine was $998 out the door for both eyes.

You know what this is, and knew that you could test it and replace it at Thrifty's drug store; usually located in the K-Mart shopping center.

You know you're old when you wake up at 4:09 in the according to your digital clock and immediately think, "I could have bought that engine in a Chevy in 1965."

Or as is in my case, you have to stare at it for a second to figure out what the fuzzy numbers are because you don't want to put on your glasses!

Older yet when you have something that still uses tubes. I sold most of them but had a collection of 1960's era Fender guitar amps. Nothing like a saturated tube says rock and roll.

If only I had kept my first amp - a blackface Bassman.
