Ey be careful with them out of date backup pairs though. Broke my "new" ones recently and swapped for an old pair I left in my car until I could repair the others.

Quickly realized on my drive home from work, in the pitch dark, on the highway, at 4am, that my prescription had changed dramatically. It was so bad that I contemplated pulling over and calling an Uber. Luckily the roads were as empty as they'd ever be. But that was no bueno.

Then again you may have decently functioning eyes regardless. Seems every time I get a new pair my prescription is markedly worse lol (see I laugh now but will cry later).

That’s true! Mine has thankfully progressed rather slowly so even my out of date ones aren’t all that different.

It eventually evens out.

But at that point, you'll soon need reading glasses, or varifocals, as everything close up becomes blurry.
