yeah, been through this twice, first time around grade 6, and as others have said, it was astonishing that wow, I can see that person's face. Then a couple of years ago I kept complaining that it was too dark to see menus and stuff, and finally realized that I was getting far-sighted. It would be nice if this corrected the original problem, but it did not ;P
I now have a set of sunglasses, distance only, and another pair for distance and computer distance. If I forget and wear the sunglasses to work, I have to move the monitor to see it.
