Check out this very cool site devoted to paintings of women reading. The link is via Althouse. Not one of these women is wearing spectacles; I suppose they were all very good about eating their carrots or, perhaps, hadn't yet hit the (ahem) Bifocal Years.
I don't believe there is such a thing as reading too much :)

Right you are! (...although my eyeglasses prescription would seem to indicate otherwise.)

So I can blame my poor eyesight on reading, not age. I like that much better!
