And that may work for you, but I have a stigmatism, so that requires more expensive glasses. If I wanted to get a new pair every year, that would have to be out of pocket. Insurance will pay only every two years. And then only a set amount.
Last glasses I bought cost around $250. Out of pocket would be close to $400. For $300 I bought an ereader and can increase the size of font from what some books probably have at 8 to 12 or even more.
I have two books that I can't read right now due to the font size. So, if I want to read those two books I have to buy them for my ereader. Trade size or HB are a good size font for me to read. But not that many books are sold in trade size or in HB and that takes up more space that is limited already.
As for the look of the font, even at it largest, XXL, there is no fuzziness. It is as clear as if it was on the lowest setting.
