I went with mom today to get my reading glasses... I can see better on the computer now. Kinda.

Basically, the glasses aren't so much for having difficulty focusing, as for preventing eyestrain. And really, staring at small, usually strange text on a glowing, stupefying piece of machinery for hours on end puts quite a bit of a strain on my eyes, so hopefully my glasses will help make it easier for me to see what folks are writing now, especially in all those odd fonts and barely visible colors.

I'm kind of new to glasses though, so it's going to take a while for me to get used to them, for example the annoying reflection from everything, this pointless "anti scratch" stuff on it that makes everything dark, how it hurts my nose,and how bloody easily they get smudges on them. It's all very frustrating. And let's not forget that mom says I'm going to have to wear them on the computer and whatnot "whether I like them or not", despite it being HER idea.

Don't get me wrong, my eyes don't hurt as much when I'm on the computer, and reading and so on, everything is alot clearer now even(when it's close up, that is). It's just the annoying glare and all that stuff that makes me want to tear the thing off my face and smash it into the ground in frustration. And just how long is it going to be until I "stop noticing" the vague reflection of my eyes in my lenses?

Other than that, I can see better than before at the computer, it's just all these minor problems with the glasses that make me give them a second thought...

Oh, and I'd like to thank all the folks who stopped me from changing my screename to something utterly lame. I appreciate your help.

Edit: Here's a work in progress of mine that I've been working on recently. Not that any of you actually care about me...
