Xer and glasses never bothered me that much but I did dream of not needing them. Waking up and being able to see clearly when I open my eyes. Well anyway I got nearsided as well and ugh do I ever hate progressive lenses and I still end up taking off my glasses for looking at things close.

Fellow Xer here. My optometrist fitted me for my first pair of glasses for reading and said "welcome to your 40s". I keep a cheap pair in every room and the nice prescription ones in my home/work offices.
