Got my first reading glasses (+1.00) when I was 39. Over the years I gradually increased the strength (now at +2.75) and, as of a few months ago at age 62, I now have my first pair of prescription glasses for wearing all the time -- but I mostly just wear them when I'm driving or watching TV.
On the other hand, I have always had the best eyes in the family. My Dad was legally blind in one eye, one of my sisters made the cover of an ophthalmologist magazine in the 60s, etc., so I wasn't surprised.
