Ahhhh crickbait.
Not really, though. I do want you to get measurements from various perspectives. Eye charts, centimeters, real outdoor landmarks …. and yes, from an optometrist, as well.
Though to be honest, I skipped optometrists for years myself, not having felt the patience for rudeness or arrogance.
But there are nice ones. A supportive optometrist, a definite asset.
And then, whoever this guy is:

It’s probably because an old dude is tired of typing, and it turns out to be easier to ramble at a camera than to write complete sentences. And in so many ways, there are so many hundreds of written posts here, Jakey might just feel like a change.
Handy also though that you can just listen to these, and not have to accumulate more screen time. Win!
Hopefully useful. Keep making those 20/20 gains!
Cheers,
