Reminds me of a story from my dad. He was in the early stages of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) and was wonderful at compensating. So he's at the Doctor, when he's done Mom comes in and asks him (in front of the doc) "what did he say about your legs?"Yeah, I did an eye exam in the routine checks about 5 months ago. And had 19/20 vision. But I forgot to mention this specific burning of the eyes problem.
The doc said "there's a problem with his legs?"
+1I use dorky magnifies with a headband, the kind you get at harbor freight over my regular glasses. Works great.
I just got those a couple months ago. I just love them, much easier then working over a microscope.
