A slightly scary senior moment half an hour or so ago.
I was reading away and started to have some difficulty. After a little while it seemed that the difficulty consisted in the centimeter square of page which I was trying to focus on getting scrambled, with neighbouring squares of page unaffected. One could make some progress by pretending to focus on one square but actually reading from another, but this was not really satisfactory. The difficulty appeared to be the same when reading with one eye at a time. Feeling a little tired I took a break, after which the difficulty failed to reappear.
Let's hope it stays away.
PS: the offending typeface was set in 11 on 12 monotype garamond and the subject matter was light opera. I have not been able to find out what the 11 on 12 bit of the colophon means.
