I revise documents on paper and write all over them and then type my edits in on screen. This is becoming very difficult because I now need reading glasses for the paper part but not for the computer (this is mainly because I have enlarged the font sizes on everything) and the whole thing has become unworkable because I can't see what I am typing in. Wearing the reading glasses to look at the computer makes me feel sick. Sometimes I have my reading glasses on the end of my nose and look over the top at the screen but that makes me a bit queasy too. Sorry for my rant but I am 2 days behind on a 115-page manuscript because of this. Obviously I need to go and talk to an optician.

Perhaps you need one frame with different flip-up lenses like the clocks man on The Repair Shop has. But you would still look like Professor Brainstawm, or a person who repairs clocks.

No, that would only work if you could wear the lenses on top of each other. Damn.
