4-Eyes Becomes 6-Eyes

[plumtreeblossom]

I bought a pair of inexpensive reading glasses at the pharmacy so I don't have to wear my real glasses in the play (theatre being the place where things get lost and broken). But whataya know, they really work! Look at me, reading the micro print on the street map that I thought I'd never be able to use again!

I lost my ability to read tiny print several years ago. But now I'm reading the label of a AAA battery! Impossibly minuscule 6-point font looks like hearty 11-point. Maybe I'll wear them to read Deathly Hallows.

They look exactly like my regular glasses, so they fit with the character for the play. (And if they get lost or broken, they're only $9.99. :-))

Now I can read the tiny fonts that you can read. :-)

How was Order of The Phoenix?

Wow. My trifocals don't let me read tiny print. Thanks for the tip about drugstore reading glasses! (Though, now that I think about it, they might not work for me, because I have serious astigmatism.)

try a few pairs on the next time you're in a pharmacy. They come in different strengths, and they function like a magnifying glass. They might just help!
