Yes, I’m nearsighted and I formally carried around cheap drugstore reading glasses for when I had contacts in. I now use multi-focal lenses and no longer need the readers. On Tue, Nov 16, 2021 at 3:16 PM John Heritage via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

I wear contact lenses and without the lenses I can read small print/see tiny text on PCBs without problem. Once the contacts are in I have real trouble focusing in some cases on small fonts, or other details such as the crappy way manufacturers print specs on power supplies.
Any specific recommendations for eye glasses here? Are cheap reading glasses sufficient for [seeing] soldering "up close" and other uses like that or is there a type of reading / magnifying glass that's also for safety that someone would recommend?
Thanks! John
