Glasses look fine asf now, but if you want a permanent fix, consider getting them realigned.

I've never been to have my eyes checked, this'll be the very first time.
When you say "realigned", are you referring to an alternative to glasses being laser eye surgery?

With medical advancements, It may be different nowadays, but I have heard mixed results many years ago as to It's success rate.

I suppose (medically) they wouldn't do It unless they know what they're doing.
If It's a one-off and guaranteed to work, It's worth considering.

I had a pair of glasses when I was about 15 and I only wear them in class and when I go to the movie. When I step downstairs wearing glasses, I can hardly figure out the real distance, lol.

Perhaps It's time to renew the lenses. Correct me If I'm wrong, but If you're used to wearing them, you shouldn't experience any Issues.
Mine have been ordered but because they're multifocal lenses, It's taking longer to manufacture. They should arrive within the week.

I got glasses in the 3rd grade. It had less to do with pc screens and more to do with genetics. My whole family needs corrective lenses.

Agree.
Genetics can play a major role, Irrespective of computing. The fact with me Is, I don't need them when I'm on my PCs. I can read the finest print without any Issues. I do need them for distant viewing- only when I'm exhausted. Because I get very minimal sleep (4 hours on average due to computing), I'm always tired, hence need glasses.
