[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7276005, member: 718"] Funny that this topic should come up. I've this minute returned from my 93 year old mother's house and she complained about wanting stronger reading glasses. I'd gone through this already with her late last year so I wondered whether there was something amiss. So she had +4 which she said were not strong enough, has an older pair of +2.5 and a pair in the bedroom which she said were fine, at +3.5. It turns out after test reading all three pairs that +3.5 are the ideal strength for her, so I was on the Amazon app straight away on my phone and ordered two pairs more of +3.5 for her of a reasonable size and brand. £7 in total. You can get a pack of five or six for less than £20 Can't comment on adjusting back to normal after removing them other than when I started wearing distance vision glasses it took a good two weeks to synchronise my brain, yes and feet to stop me goose-stepping. My feet just didn't seem to be where they should be for a while and stairs were a particular problem as was adjusting to walking without my glasses, which I often do when working outdoors, particularly if its raining. You'll soon get used to it and think nothing more about it. For extra pairs of reading glasses, just read the strength printed inside the leg and get the same strength at your chemist, supermarket or Amazon. [/QUOTE]
