In the last six months I've had to give in and wear my specs most of the time. I have long sight so can cycle sans specs but pretty much everything else requires the goggles. Half of me is horrified by this turn of events, I've always been so lucky and not needed my specs apart from once in a while when tired. However, if I want to see properly I must give in to the ageing process become Spectacle Chap.

I've ALWAYS been horrified at having to wear my Specs for close-up detailed things (long sighted) - I look so prissy and strict school Head Teacher-ish it's embarrassing! *Blushes* Fortunately, my prescription has hardly changed in the last 4 years and I'm still wearing the same frames. I hate the plastic, clunky looking ones that are fashionable for women at the moment - with my round, chubby face, they look very severe! LOL!

I know the fashionable sort you mean - that's what I got last time as you can see. However I've been wearing my old Memoflex specs for the last few months because they're lighter and I can fall asleep without breaking them

Sadly my prescription has changed and I can't wear the bendy specs for the real close stuff now...I need a new eye test.

Sorry you can't find any new frames you like.

No worries! I will eventually - I like the femininity of metal frames as they are smaller and more delicate looking, yet I still look Head Teacher-ish, lol!. I'm fortunate that my prescription is basically for one eye which as an Astigmatism - my beautiful heritage mixes have given me a Rugby ball eye, lol!
