Did you know it’s easy to tell whether someone wearing glasses is nearsighted or farsighted? Amazed someone with the observation she was farsighted, yesterday, but myself coming from a family where once upon a time every one of us wore glasses, you might not have been so surprised I knew this. Glases to correct nearsightedness make a person’s eyes/face/anything beneath appear smaller, and when one looks back through the lens at the edge of the face, it’s discontinuous and pulled in at that point. Glasses for farsightedness are the opposite (each lens is like a magnifying glass, though not as strong the typical item you’d find a kid frying ants with) and the edge of the face appears pushed out.
