You might try going to an eye doctor rather than doing a one-size-fits-all pair of glasses so that you have what is right for you.
I did - I see my ophthalmologist every 2 years. He told me to just go buy 1.25 readers. I guess I could call for a script - they don't do glasses there at all.

So - my eye doctor warned me a few years ago and it is happening.... I need reading glasses. Since I'll be starting class in a couple weeks - I want to order some glasses that I'll be able to leave on during class (I only need them for reading - can't actually see distance with them on). I am looking for glasses that have a reading lens on the bottom but are clear on top so I can see the board. Does anyone know if these exist or what they would be called? Everything I have found so far is has some sort of magnification all the way up (like 3/4 for the center and 1/2 for the top - but not totally clear).
Help!! Otherwise I'm gonna be in the market for one of those neck things or granny glasses that I look over the top of!!!
