Hearing aids and glasses

[Wren]

Do you wear both ? Which do you put on first ? when the hearing aids were fitted they put them on first then my glasses but I’ve been told since it’s easier the other way round, especially if you have varifocal lens

i wear reading glasses now, I had cataract surgery on both eyes which gave me perfect distance.
I don’t need hearing aids.

Glasses then hearing aids. Easier for me that way.

I do it both ways. I prefer with glasses off, but the extra fiddling is not enough when they are already on. So then I don't bother taking them off.

I don't need hearing aids yet but do need glasses for reading and I read a lot. I just put my glasses on when I get up and forget about them. No looking for them when I want to read something.

My husband used to say I have bionic hearing, so I don't need a hearing aid. I wear glasses and recently realized, even with a new prescription, I see better while on the computer using my Dollar Tree reading glasses.

Most people I see around here have the glasses on first and the hearing aid on last.

Good question. I know I need the hearing aid soon. Never thought about this and I have to take my glasses off several times a day to clean them. Also, I switch back and forth between reader and regular glasses. They’re progressive but useless.

Just eyeglasses, I get pair a year with transition lenses from the VA for glaucoma and potential cataracts.

Thanks for all replies, I seem to find it’s better with glasses on first and hearing aids after

It‘s not made any easier as I have tinnitus and wear varifocals glasses !
