    He got to 45 without needing glasses? He’s ahead of most I know…

    I’ve had glasses with bifocals for 12 years now, an I’m 50.

    Been Bespectacled since I was in 1st grade. Although it is farsighted that usually occurs as we age, which would not effect seeing the ball after the kick, but before the kick. that would ensue a Charlie Brown moment.

    I used to do something similar, except I was a punter in high school. I stopped kicking my age 12 years ago, although I did manage an anomaly at age 48.

    Hey, if Ralph could kick a 44-yard field goal at age 44, there are a few NFL teams that might want his phone number.

    That is NOT how it works. As you get older, you develop presbyopia (a condition in which the lens of the eye loses its ability to focus, making it difficult to see objects up close ) not myopia ( when light entering the eye is focused incorrectly, making distant objects appear blurred.)

    You are born with myopia — presbyopia is an aging process.

    My current driver’s license is my first without a glasses only restriction. Cataracts are good for something! But I still wear my glasses except for computer monitors, bookshelves, and reading music (the focal length just right for those.

    Mid-50,s no glasses. Wish my teeth were as good as my eyesight though. I always figured I would not need dentures until at least 60. Turns out I was wrong on that score.
