7 Signs to get yourself checked for glasses

Blurry eyesight

One sign that someone needs glasses is distorted or shifting eyesight. Never stop testing your vision by focusing on one eye at a time and examining objects you frequently view, such as books, magazines, or even automobile registration numbers, to determine how well or poorly you can see them.

headache trouble

Your regular activities should not be giving you headaches, and if you frequently have them after driving, reading, watching TV, or simply going about your daily business, you should get help.

Close to eye reading

Have you picked up your favorite book for a leisurely read and found that the words are too small to read clearly? Is the menu at a restaurant out of focus up close, so you are holding it away from your face? This could indicate that you are headed to the town of glasses!

Rubbing your eyes

The primary cause is fatigue or exhaustion in your eyes, though it can also be caused by your eyes straining to see. Allergies or conjunctivitis of any kind could be other causes.

RINGS AROUND LIGHT SOURCES

When eyes have trouble concentrating light, halos, or circles, may form around light sources like street lighting, car headlights, lamps inside your home, etc. Sometimes wearing glasses or contact lenses is a simple way to fix this.

EYES ARE TIRED!

Common activities like using a computer, watching TV, or going on a drive should not cause you to feel tired or have difficulty focusing; if you do, you might need some glasses!

RED EYES AND PAIN

The whites of your eyes, or sclera, should be exactly that—white. Any redness or discoloration could be a precursor to an optical problem that requires an opticians examination. No pain should be there in a healthy eye.
