My job comes with good enough private vision coverage that I finally visited a local optician. I much liked Andrew Bolton Opticians in Dundee but they're over an eighty minute drive away for me now and that keeps not happening in a way that comfortably fits an eyecare appointment.

I had been getting by fairly well with over-the-counter reading glasses: +1.0 for distance, +1.5 for close-up work. In my youth I had excellent vision, well beyond what glasses will correct me to now. So, in trying out my new glasses, things mostly didn't look great. Then, I tried my previous over-the-counter ones again and things looked even worse. I suppose that I just get to live with vision that's really not what it was. At least the vision benefit claims went easily.

I'm glad OTC glasses work for some people, but they're an absolute last-ditch emergency thing for me. I need prism correction and they don't do that.
