I have recently been prescribed glasses for driving as I am now short sighted (time is catching up with me!!)

Now this may be a daft question, but should I wear them when taking distance shots with my FZ30 especially on Manual focus?

May seem obvious but I only wear them for driving and whenever I wear them when not driving they affect my balance a little and they feel awkward??

the FZ's have a diopter adjustment that should help with this. simply turn the little wheel until the image in the viewfinder is clear... i wear reading glasses (advanced presbyopia), and can't focus on anything closer than about 6 feet without them. the diopter adjustment on my FZ20 corrects for my vision just fine, and i shoot without my glasses.
