Im near sighted, and have been told, based on my focal point , Id never need reading glasses.
I occasionally need glasses for driving, but oddly , my distant vision is improving.
now ; as ingredient lists become smaller and smaller its become difficult to see the amount of sodium etc in prepared foods.
why not just take some reading glasses a long ? bulky.
my father had a small flat magnifying glass one would slip into one's pocket with no fuss. in a leather 'case' can't find it of course
looked around here and there in various stores : nothing.
amazon of course came to the rescue :

works quite well. Plastic case these days.
