How do you ensure that your glasses are comfortable to wear? I have reading glasses and when I tried them on in the shop they were fine but I find that I am having to take them off every five minutes because they really irritate my nose/face/ears. I hate them!

Mine stay on me to the point I forget that they are there and I have to look for the LD ones. Bifocals, I have never fancied...

Sounds as if they don't fit properly, tilly. Take them back. I wear my varifocals all the time and don't even notice they are there.

Are the just off the shelf shop glasses or are they from the optician?
The former: try a different brand, or give the idea up and go to an optician.
The latter: they'll fit them for you if you tell them the problem.

It didn't cross my mind that you might not have been to an optician - they would indeed ensure a good fit.

Go back, the optician will adjust them free of charge

They are from Specsavers. I find them really uncomfortable. I will go back and explain the problem. I am always fiddling with them and pushing them up my nose. They also look lop sided when I have them on....grrrrr!

I've worn glasses for fifty years or more and I've never had a pair that's not had to go back for adjustment at least twice.

Suffer not, they are really obliging and helpful. Never had a problem that was not fixed.

I guess I have just been lucky with my glasses so far as none of them have been uncomfortable. Get contacts.

Can you get contacts for just reading?

Not all of us can get on with contacts, randy - I can't - and I wouldn't want to wear contacts if I only needed specs for reading.
