LPT: Try anti-glare/tinted/polarised glasses for night driving with astigmatism. You can get anti-glare/tinted/polarised glasses fairly cheaply online. I have large ones that slip over your glasses. My eyes are +6 with pretty significant astigmatism. I have been finding it impossible to see properly at night due to LED headlights – if there is consistent oncoming traffic on a dual carriageway, it blinds me and I cannot see t…

Screw some small hooks into the cupboard where the cups and glasses are kept. Every person gets their own hook and their own supply of different-colored rubber bands. When you t…

Glasses and Viewfinders? It Can’t Just Be Me I’m 54 and a lifetime of computers has me wearing readers. I can’t seem to stuff my eyeball with glasses on against the viewfinder all that easily.

LPT – Place your used lemons in your dishwasher for shinier glasses and a great scent I was given the tip years ago and have been doing it ever since. I find actually a noticeable difference in cleanliness and a subtle citric smell and it’s just one of those awesome tips that improve your life just a little bit more.
