I used to read 2-3 books a week. Anyway, I started feeling eye strain after a couple of hours reading, and that had never happened before. I thought maybe my eyes were strained from focusing, so I went and had an eye exam.

Halfway through the exam, the doctor just stopped and told me that I clearly had great vision, and he didn't finish the exam. Instead, he said if I was feeling eye strain, to try a pair of readers in the .5 magnification.

So, I got some readers that were that were .5, and within 6 months I couldn't focus on my nook without them. I think my eyesight got worse so rapidly because I used those readers several hours a day.

I started out just buying a few pairs of 1.5 readers from the dollar store. They were fine for awhile. But it always sucks having to take them off any time I take my eyes off the screen, book, etc. I have found bifocal reading glasses that work pretty well for me. They are more expensive but nothing like prescription glasses. And they are a Godsend.
