When I turned 45, I found myself squinting when trying to read menus. I quickly went to the drug store and bought my first pair of +1.00 reading glasses and was disappointed at the selection of styles to choose from. After all, I was not ready to look like a granny! I am happy to report that these days, readers come in so many fashionable styles that make them both functional and fab. I'm a +2.00 girl now at 55, and have a nice collection!
