[vcf-midatlantic] [OT] My eyes are aging - glasses recos for electronics work/small print reading?

I'm sure at least a few of you can relate. Hell, I *know* Crawford Griffith can relate ;-).. 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
