Ah but the daft thing about this was I do have reading Glass's in the House my girlfriend gave me and never really needed them for wiring etc.!!

Tell you some where else I really noticed the close up eye sight being a problem which surprised me and since found out it's quite common for this to highlight bad eye sight.??? . . . . .Tig welding.!
For 15+ years now I've welded with Mig or MMA and before that Oxy/acet with some small amount of Tig but I've recently bought a AC/DC Tig for welding Ali and Titanium and really noticed I was struggling to see the weld pool clearly no matter how I set my Automask.!! . . . . .It's a Bugger.!!
