I went all in when I got my first tablet (Asus Transformer) and I got rid of all my paper books. I find it takes me a lot longer to get through a book on a tablet as opposed to the paper books. I tend to fall asleep and since I've been reading on tablets my eyesight has gotten poor. Maybe that's just a coincidence.

I am 44 and everyone tells me that requiring reading glasses at this age is not unusual., but it worries me. Now I read on an ipad but I still have the same problems. Is this a common occurrence?
