After the cataract / IOL surgery, the distance vision is almost good enough to not need glasses. But I have the same fixed focus issue that I had with the cataracts. I just keep several pairs of cheaters depending on how close I can (or should) get to what I have to read.

One good way for a person new at radio restoration is that if the wiring is good, replace 1 cap at a time, by cutting the leads at the cap, cleaning the length of lead left behind after cutting out the cap, looping the end of the lead, threading the leads of the new cap into these loops, crimping and soldering the junction. This leaves the wiring at the sockets undisturbed.

Practice soldering before doing so.

All caps in a radio are important but the 4 most important are the 2 audio coupling caps, the cap across the Output and the bypass cap for the screen voltages. Then, of course, the rest are important too, but those, plus the power supply 'lytics are the ones that I change before firing it up.
