October 6, 2004 ? EasierToUse.com's publisher, Alistair Davidson announced the awarding of its highest rating to the open source Mozilla web browser today. Mozilla's Firefox web browser has been rated EasiestToUse ?, EasiestToSee? and No Reading Glasses Needed ?, the highest ratings assessed by the web site and newsletter (http://easiertouse.com/software.htm )A key factor in obtaining this high rating is Mozilla's superior ability to change the size of text on web sites even sites where the size of text has been hardwired by the designer.There are 90 million Americans and 9 million Canadians who are frustrated. They visit web sites and discover that the sites have a fixed font size that is unreadable. Lots of white space and small fonts may be great for for some, but the 90 million Americans who need reading glasses, the web sites are impossible.Almost a third of the American population needs reading glasses, but engineers designing web sites are typically under 40 with perfect vision. So what you get?
Web sites that look great, but that you can't see and use if you have presbyopia ( in other words, you need reading glasses).

Online Optician Mark Bowden Responds to Allegations of High Street Opticians Profiteering
1,000% profit on the supply of prescription glasses (Daily Mail) is a completely false allegation. Claiming that high street opticians are "rip offs" (Daily Mirror) is ludicrous.Mark Bowden who has followed in both his father's and grand father's footsteps as an optician and runs two highly successful opticians in Bolton Lancashire, providing a personal quality service to its patients for many years.
High street practice overheads include fully qualified Ophthalmic Optician, Dispensing Optician and ancillary staff all with many years of professional training and experience behind them. Along with expensive optical equipment and one to one time spent with a patient the average cost of an eye examination simply doesn't cover the outlay, in-fact many local opticians who provide a personal service struggle to make ends meet. Mark Bowden realizes that many of the public want to buy their prescription spectacles online, without the full practice service.
Consequently he set...

The many varieties of reading glasses available match the many personalities of their wearers.To be fashionable and feel great you need to identify what you need from a pair of reading glasses. Reading glasses come in many types, but the most popular ones are: rimless, plastic, metal, and foldable. The following list describes each kind, the characteristics, and styles available.Rimless reading glasses: This kind has no frame around the lens.
The ear and nose pieces connect directly to the lens. Rimless readers are good for someone wanting something lightweight.

The "Memory" Collector
The "Memory" CollectorEveryone collects something right? It may be baseball cards, hats, or some other type of sports memorabilia. Even if you don't consider yourself a collector of anything, you may be and don't even know it. How about the collection of tools in the cellar you don't really use, but you have to have them! Even maybe all those movies laying around you no longer watch, sounds like a collection to me.More common items people typically collect are things like, coins, military items, guns, and sports items. Generally it will be something that once interested a person, had an impact on their lives or they just simply enjoyed. Me, I am a collector of shot glasses.
What it was that spawned the interest is beyond me, I think it may have started in college. I now have a collection of over 300 shot glasses, and yes, I have had at least 1 shot of some type of a concoction from each one of them. Looking at them now, they are reminders of places I have been, and things I have...

Tampa, FL (ContentDesk) March 9, 2006 -- A revolutionary advance in cataract surgery will be introduced this month by Dr. Antonio Prado of the Prado Vision & Lasik Center at 7522 N. Himes Avenue.AcrySof? ReSTOR? IOL is the first and only apodized diffractive intraocular lens (IOL) for cataract patients with and without presbyopia.
The AcrySof? ReSTOR? IOL, from Alcon, Inc., provides patients with a full range of quality vision (near, intermediate and distance), and greatly reduces reliance on glasses.In clinical trials, 80 percent of patients reported they no longer needed reading glasses or bifocals following bilateral cataract surgery.
Most patients who undergo cataract surgery receive monofocal lenses, which typically require them to use reading glasses or bifocals for near vision following surgery.
With the new AcrySof? ReSTOR? IOL, patients have the potential to reduce their reliance on glasses, said Dr. Prado.
This new lens is a breakthrough...

Many people are switching to the freedom and convenience of contact lenses. If you're thinking of switching from glasses to contact lenses, here are often several questions to ask:
