Fading Vision

I am overdue for new glasses. My eyelid is twitching from eyestrain, and it's getting progressively difficult to read at a comfortable distance. Unfortunately, the only time in the past couple of months when my optometrist was available, I wasn't, and vice versa. I do finally have an appointment in September, but I was really hoping to have this done before Worldcon. As it is, I'll be doing a lot of squinting, it appears.

It doesn't help that I have co-workers who love to keep the blinds open and apparently aren't at all bothered by the huge amounts of glare this causes. I guess they like looking into the sun.
