Thanks for your reply Zoomup, as a consultant I do a lot of survey work and site inspections, and have a similar issue with reading MCB's etc. I can just about read them, but there are often situations I don't really want my face that close to the installation! I photograph and then zoom in on my camera screen to read things, and head torches are the best thing since sliced bread :) I'm good at adapting but like you say there will reach a point where its a safety issue, and I worry about missing that point if I end up with a slow deteriation. I'm hoping that I can still have worth as an M&E consultant without being able to visit site in the future, as retiring at 50 is probably not going to be an option!
