Sain nimitt\u00e4in taas uudet lasit. En ollut edellisiin, vuosi sitten hankkimiini laseihin oikein miss\u00e4\u00e4n vaiheessa tyytyv\u00e4inen <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>(vaikka pokat olikin kivat)<\/strong><\/span>. Tuntui ett\u00e4 en tahtonut mill\u00e4\u00e4n n\u00e4hd\u00e4 l\u00e4helle riitt\u00e4v\u00e4n hyvin. Kun palasin optikkoliikkeeseen pari p\u00e4iv\u00e4\u00e4 lasien saamisen j\u00e4lkeen kertomaan, ett\u00e4 en oikein n\u00e4e l\u00e4helle kunnolla ja joudun ty\u00f6ss\u00e4ni ottamaan lasit p\u00e4\u00e4st\u00e4 n\u00e4hd\u00e4kseni, minulle vain tokaistiin ett\u00e4 no sitten sun t\u00e4ytyy varmaan vaan ottaa lasit pois. Vuodessa n\u00e4k\u00f6ni on huonontunut sen verran, ett\u00e4 viimeaikoina istuinkin ty\u00f6paikalla usein ilman laseja n\u00e4hd\u00e4kseni mit\u00e4 olen tekem\u00e4ss\u00e4. Yritt\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4p\u00e4 ommella mustaa kangasta huonolla n\u00e4\u00f6ll\u00e4, tai erottaa kumpi puoli on kankaan oikea puoli. Oli siis ihan pakko raahautua uudestaan optikolle.<\/p>\n<p>Siell\u00e4 k\u00e4vikin sitten eritt\u00e4in selv\u00e4ksi, ett\u00e4 meik\u00e4l\u00e4inen on keski-ik\u00e4istym\u00e4\u00e4n p\u00e4in. Sain el\u00e4m\u00e4ni ensimm\u00e4iset moniteholinssit. Samalla ne ovat el\u00e4m\u00e4ni ensimm\u00e4iset Converset. Niin klassikko-merkki kuin se onkin, en ole koskaan omistanut Conversen tennareita. En vain jostain syyst\u00e4 pid\u00e4 niist\u00e4. N\u00e4m\u00e4 Conversen pokat sen sijaan tuntuvat p\u00e4\u00e4ss\u00e4 ihanan kevyilt\u00e4. Sovitin kaikki mahdolliset hiukkaakaan vintagea muotoilultaan henkiv\u00e4t muovisankaiset mallit ja monitehoille riitt\u00e4v\u00e4n laakeat pokat l\u00e4pi ja n\u00e4ihin sitten p\u00e4\u00e4dyin vaikka oranssi v\u00e4ri hiukan arvelutti. Vaatekaapistanikaan ei l\u00f6ydy terrakotan punaisen lis\u00e4ksi mit\u00e4\u00e4n muuta oranssia. Kirkas oranssi vain ei ole minun v\u00e4rini sitten yht\u00e4\u00e4n. Mutta se ei haittaa yht\u00e4\u00e4n sill\u00e4 n\u00e4yt\u00e4n n\u00e4m\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4ss\u00e4 aika erehdytt\u00e4v\u00e4sti kirjastonhoitajalta.<\/p>\n<p>Nyt pit\u00e4\u00e4 vain totutella monitehoon. Henkil\u00f6kohtaisesti olen sit\u00e4 mielt\u00e4 ett\u00e4 optikoiden hinnoittelu moniteholinssien ollessa kyseess\u00e4 on jokseenkin pieless\u00e4. Edullisimpien\u00a0moniteholinssien lukualueet ovat niin kapeat ett\u00e4 ihmettelen kuka oikeasti p\u00e4rj\u00e4\u00e4 sellaisella? Mit\u00e4 leve\u00e4mm\u00e4n <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>(ja siis mukavamman)<\/strong> <\/span>lukualueen haluaa, sit\u00e4 enemm\u00e4n se maksaa. Itse valitsin ty\u00f6ni vaatimasta tarkkuudesta\u00a0johtuen toiseksi leveimm\u00e4n lukualueen, ja sekin tuntuu olevan viel\u00e4 hirvitt\u00e4v\u00e4n kapea. Joudun pinnistelem\u00e4\u00e4n l\u00f6yt\u00e4\u00e4kseni linssist\u00e4 sopivan kohdan n\u00e4hd\u00e4kseni. Silmien liikuttamisen sijaan nyt pit\u00e4\u00e4 opetella liikuttamaan p\u00e4\u00e4t\u00e4. Vanhojen kaksiteholinssien sijaan monitehoissahan ei ole mit\u00e4\u00e4n selkeit\u00e4 rajoja miss\u00e4 lukualueen reunat kulkevat vaan ne pit\u00e4\u00e4 vain l\u00f6yt\u00e4\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4t\u00e4 liikuttamalla. Lis\u00e4ksi linssien reunoilla on sumeammat alueet joilla ei n\u00e4e tarkasti sen paremmin l\u00e4helle kuin kauas. Toivottavasti t\u00e4m\u00e4 helpottuu t\u00e4st\u00e4 ajan my\u00f6t\u00e4, optikolta kertoivat ett\u00e4 siihen voi menn\u00e4 parikin viikkoa.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Millaiset kokemukset teill\u00e4 on monitehoista, jos teill\u00e4 sellaisia on k\u00e4yt\u00f6ss\u00e4?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/inenglish.gif\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7004\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/inenglish.gif?resize=214%2C100\" alt=\"inenglish\" width=\"214\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I have been recently a bit anxious. I got new glasses, again. I never was particularly happy with my previous glasses <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>(even though the frames were quite nice)<\/strong><span style=\"color: #333333;\">, which I got only about a year ago<\/span><\/span>. It felt that I never really saw properly close with them. When I returned couple days later to the optician to tell them that I don&#8217;t see well to close and I have to take my glasses of to be able to work on precise stuff, they just told me to take my glasses off at work. That&#8217;s it. Within a year my eyesight has gone worse so much, that recently I have been sitting at work quite a lot without glasses to be able to see anything. Try to sew black materials with poor eyesight, or find out which side of the material is right side. So it was pretty clear I had to renew my glasses again.<\/p>\n<p>After the eye sight check it was pretty clear I&#8217;m becoming middle aged woman. I got my first pair of multi-focal glasses. At the same time they are my very first Converse&#8217;. As classic brand as Converse is, I have never had Converse shoes. I just don&#8217;t like them for some reason. These Converse frames however are quite light on the head. I tried pretty much all vintag-y style plastic frames with large enough lenses for multi-focals. I ended up taking these, even though I&#8217;m not so sure about the orange colour. I don&#8217;t really have anything orange in my wardrobe, except the terracotta red. Bright orange just isn&#8217;t my thing. But that doesn&#8217;t really matter much, because wearing these I look pretty much like librarian.<\/p>\n<p>Now I just have to adjust to new way of seeing things. Personally I think the pricing system for multi-focals is rediculous. Cheapest multi-focal lenses have very narrow reading earea. So narrow that I have to wonder if anyone is able to cope with that at all. \u00a0The wider <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>(and more comfortable)<\/strong> <\/span>you want the reading area to be, the more you have to pay. I chose the second to largest, reading area, because my work requires quite a lot of precision, and even that feels quite narrow. I have to struggle a bit to find the correct area to see through the lens. \u00a0Instead of moving my eyes, I now have to start moving my head. Unlike in the old bi-focal lenses, there is no clear borders on the reading area, you just have to find it by moving your head. There is also quite large blurry areas on both edges of the lens. You can&#8217;t see clearly neither close nor far with those areas. Hopefully it get&#8217;s easier when time goes by. They told me at the optician it might take anything up to two weeks.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>If you are wearing multi-focal lenses, what kind of experiences you have on them?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11714\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses2.jpg?resize=600%2C864\" alt=\"librarianglasses2\" width=\"600\" height=\"864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses2.jpg?w=600 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses2.jpg?resize=139%2C200 139w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses2.jpg?resize=208%2C300 208w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarrianglasses1.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-11717\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarrianglasses1.jpg?resize=600%2C978\" alt=\"librarrianglasses1\" width=\"600\" height=\"978\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarrianglasses1.jpg?w=600 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarrianglasses1.jpg?resize=123%2C200 123w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarrianglasses1.jpg?resize=184%2C300 184w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Kirjastonhoitaja t\u00e4ss\u00e4 moi! \/<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Hi, I&#8217;m the librarian!<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses3.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-11715\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses3.jpg?resize=600%2C900\" alt=\"librarianglasses3\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses3.jpg?w=600 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses3.jpg?resize=133%2C200 133w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/librarianglasses3.jpg?resize=200%2C300 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Tarjouksella sain moniteho-aurinkolasit kaupan p\u00e4\u00e4lle.
