I wear glasses for reading mostly but probably should be looking at a pair of these myself Mary. You certainly took advantage of them and did this wonderful and creative display with them. Love how you let the small lettering seem bigger and clearer looking though the lens. A beautiful scene that will make your life so much clearer now dear friend. Take care, have a wonderful day. #11458804

I wear two pairs on my head at once. I get looks but hey! :D Works for me. I think actually they need to invent upside down ones. Where most of the glass is strong for the computer and the little bifocal is a lesser one at the top for glancing up at the TV when something exciting happens. :D Well anyway congratulations and I hope you love them. This is a really cute and fun image but I am sure you can already "see" this is "clearly" true! 8-)

Yes, Pommers, I'm wearing them and loving it as I write to you...
Our TV is in the livingroom, so most of my
bifocals are strong for the computer in this room, and the little bifocal is on the bottom, for when I want to glance down at something I'm reading (i.e., "PSE 11 for Dummies"). I highly recommend you get one pair in the reverse order of mine, so you can cut down from two pairs on your head to one pair on your nose. So much simpler (more simple?)!!

I have Multifocals so I don't have to change between glasses for what-ever I'm doing & find them great, I'd be lost without them. I like you picture showing us your new glasses also=^..^= #11466897

Thanks, Chris. #11466927
