More requirements via regulation means more words and thus smaller text to fit in the same spaces.

This is the exact moment when you know that you need Readers buddy. The dorkier and lower they sit on your nose, the better. I love mine.

This is the correct answer. Too much fed requirements and have to print smaller to fit.

had 20/20 vision until I was about 44 and bam, gone in seemingly 3 or 4 months

My wife's went way downhill at 42.

I just turned 40 and for the first time I’ve added vision to my coverage next year.

At least the rest of my health is fine … for now.

I always had it for the oldest who has worn glasses since she was little. Next, the younger one needed glasses, then my wife. I'm the last holdout only because I just wear readers.
