Eyeglasses

On this past tuesday, I went in for a vision exam. The last time I had one was probably around 5 or 6 years ago. The doctor had warned me that I'd need glasses when I get older. It turns out he was right after all.

For the past couple of weeks, I've noticed my vision was getting to be bothersome. For instance, I could read and see things up close but when it comes to being far ahead, everything is barely a blur. The closed captions on the TV was becoming unreadable for me.

Anyway, After the exam was done - It turns out that I have astigmatism and am a little bit near-sighted. My right eye is at 20/50 and the left eye is at 20/60. The funny thing is, I have never wore eyeglasses in my entire life. I still am trying to get myself accustomed to the idea of having to wear eyeglasses. It feels weird knowing I'd be wearing it.

Are there any good tips as to taking care of eyeglasses, etc? Any feedbacks/opinions would be appreciated.
