When should you get eyeglasses?

Answer 1

I recommend you consider eyeglasses when you begin to find that your vision is getting blurry, that your having problems seeing things that are far away or when you can't see things up close that well. I found out I needed glasses when I noticed that I couldn't see that well through one of my eyes so that could be something to look out for as well. But before you head off to an Optician (someone who sells glasses), you need to see an Optometrist (someone who examines your eyes and can prescribe glasses for you if necessary). If the Optometrist says that you need glasses, they will fill out a prescription for your glasses. After they give you your prescription, you have to bring the prescription to an Optician so that they can order or make the specific glasses you need (Some Opticians are capable of making your glasses within an hour while others have to order them for you so that you can pick them up when they are ready). A few other things you should look out for in your vision is if you see doubles, if people are telling you that you are crossing your eyes when you don't feel like you are and if you feel constant headaches.
