  I wore glasses for over 40 years, being severely nearsighted.
When I had to stop driving at night at 35, it was discovered that
I had cataracts. The visual acuity was 20/2000 -- but after the
surgery with intraocular lens implants, it improved to 20/20.
However, I have to use reading glasses when looking at the
smartphone, documents, or at the computer. Or, as the late Red
Skelton noted as Clem Kadiddlehopper, Doctor Of Fool-ology, noted,
"I don't really need these. But, I've reached the age where
curiosity is greater than vanity". <G>

  I've been dealing with the eyes being too dry or too watery
lately. Part of it may be spending too much time at the computer,
watching YouTube Videos of military personnel coming home to
surprise their families...or their girlfriends, with a marriage
proposal.
