Mrs Physics is getting old! She’s just taken ownership of her first two pairs of varifocals. There is so much Physics and Biology framed within two small pieces of glass. I’ll be carrying out lots of optics experiments on them when I get back to school. Hopefully, by then I will be used to them. Luckily, I’ve had good advice from Mr Physics, who has recently got himself a pair. I can get the looking up to see distances and looking down to read: but it feels like my head is now in the wrong place to see. As for going down the stairs: I’d been warned to look down but wasn’t prepared to see the floor at the bottom of the stairs sloping at an angle of 35 degrees.
So if you think I’m looking down my nose at you, please realise that I am trying to get you into full focus and as sharp and clear as you would have been when I was eighteen, although you probably hadn’t been born then.
Ha! Update, I think the long distance part of the varifocals are too high. It looks like I am getting replacement lenses. Hopefully I will then be able to look you straight in the eye.
New pair of varifocals are doing the business. Hope to get the second pair fixed too. Thanks to all who helped me see again.
