[Leica] IMG: New Glasses

[Aram Langhans]

Well, you may not hide your age in print but your self photo defies your 
age.  I did not wear glasses until maybe 10 years ago at  about 60ish.  
I had Zeiss progressives and they did not take much to get use to.  I 
now wear Shamir progressives that have a bit wider reading field of view 
in ultra light weight Silhouette frames.  Like wearing nothing.
