Sorry about the awkward title; I had a lot of trouble trying to word it.
Anyway, I got my first pair of glasses yesterday. I went in for my first eye exam in nearly a decade, and apparently I have mild astigmatism. So for the past day I’ve been getting used to the sensation of having glasses on (I never cared for sunglasses, personally; I’ve always found them hard to see in) and getting a touch of euphoria about how they conceal the brow somewhat. But then it kinda hit me that I don’t really know anything about glasses, having not used them until age 36. I probably should have asked some questions about it when I picked them up, but I was kinda sick and didn’t want to stick around there too long.
I know I could just google it, but google sucks now, plus, I may as well use the AskBeehaw platform, it’s pretty quiet.
Keeping a few of those little lens cleaning cloths in convenient places is about all I can think of. They launder fine too, if you notice any become less effective at removing smears.
If you ever need a new prescription, they should be able to put the new lenses in your current frame. Similarly, if your frame ever gets broken but your lenses are undamaged, they can pop them in a new frame. That said, keeping old glasses as spares is useful, and it can be fun to have new frames.
Ooh, neat, good to know. Thanks!![bee_happy bee happy emoji](https://beehaw.org/emoji/blobbee_happy.png)
