I started wearing glasses at age forty. Starting with cheap reader type glasses for one year, I eventually got prescription eyeglasses. I've had several pairs over the years. I also have soft contact lenses, which I wear every day. By afternoon, I'm ready to take them out and put my glasses on. Contacts brother my eyes if I wear them too long. I recently got new glasses, and a six month supply of contact lenses. Next month I'm going to get prescription sunglasses also. I want a good polarized pair for fishing. Once you get prescription glasses, there's no turning back. You'll need them all the time. Tying on small jigs with 4lb mono is still tricky on bright days, but I live with it. It's part of getting older- 65 now. How is your eyesight? Do you need and wear glasses or contacts?
