If you can't be bothered to get glasses, your eyes will be paying for it in the long run. Magnifying glasses might be OK,but I don't think they are sold in specific prescription. Plus, if you have an astigmatism (most people do), that can't be corrected with magnifying glass because your eyes(s) won't be able to reflect the light properly. Please try to get glasses or contact lenses. Your eyes will thank you!!!
Sometimes, but why bother with getting them if you can't bother with regular glasses?
You must be busy to be too bothered to get glasses. When is the last time you had an eye exam... you know they check more than only for glasses!
Prescription glasses are made exactly as you need. Not what the general public needs. A pupillary distance is taken to make them ideal for your eyes as well as each lens is specifically corrected for each eye. This will give you the most comfort reading, correct focal distance and longer reading time. Some people do actually have the same correction in each eye, but not that often. The drug store glasses have the same in both eyes and can make you over or under corrected in one or both eyes. For short term use, like at the grocery store they are fine, but for long term reading you will be happier with proper glasses.
Please go for a yearly eye exam to be sure your eyes are healthy. My father went blind because he never went for an eye exam until it was too late. Reading glasses that are made specifically for your eyes will be much more comfortable feeling.
