How is your eyesight? Do you need glasses to read?

Is too much reading bad for our eyes?
 
Yep, I sure do. I have poor vision and need glasses for everything. Hooray.
 
Depends on the distance, but I actually see better without glasses when reading at close range.
 
I need "readers".
 
To read, see, and everything like that.
 
I have needed glasses since I was 10 years old. I got contacts when I was 16. I got Lasik in 2008. For the last few years I’ve been needing reading glasses. I hate wearing glasses but at least the reading ones are not constant.
These frames I’ve had for, gosh, 25 some years lol so I haven’t had a need to buy any.
 
No. In fact, I have to take my glasses off to read. I can see stuff fine up close just not far away.
 
My eye sight is horrible. I've had glasses since the fourth grade. My eye sight is so blurred out that I can't see things much anymore. I can still make out shapes and tell where things are.

Far away, yes. Up close/bigger letters, no. I am nearsighted and have astigmatism.

I do not 'need glasses to read'.... I need glasses to SEE.

More like too little reading is bad for your mind.
