@mrcatlord I do, but most of my vision loss comes from damaged sensory nerves, so the glasses only help a small bit. Also, because of damaged sensory nerves, I wear hearing aids, and no sense of smell.

I wonder what Juan Vicente's vision is like. According to the LQ article, it was reported on his 112th birthday that he did not see clearly anymore and only distinguished lumps instead of people. Here in my country, visually impaired is considered 20/400 on the vision scale, and my own vision was measured in 2021 as close to 20/800. Thus, twice the criteria for being visually impaired, but it is not as bad as it might seem. The only part of everyday life that I cannot do is drive a vehicle. Going down stairs takes me a bit, as I cannot see the change in depth of the ground, and using the pay machine at grocery stores is a bit awkward as I have to get about 4 inches away to read the text, but I'm not blind. Cutting my toenails is also a challenge, as I have to bend my leg in a way where it is very close to my eyes. I wonder if Juan Vicente would take a vision test, whereabouts his vision would fall on the scale. I imagine his to be worse than mine.

Do you wear glasses?

Moderator's note: Juan Vicente Pérez Mora is still 114 (therefore we can't speak of a "span between two 115 year old men" referring to Kimura and JVPM), and Anísio Rodrigues Alves is not (yet) fully validated.

I just realized, this has been the longest span of time since we've seen a validated 115 year old man...

Christian Mortensen - 1997

Emiliano Mercado del Toro - 2006

Anisio Rodrigues Alves - 2007

Jiroemon Kimura - 2012

Juan Vicente Pérez Mora - 2024

There are plenty of possible (but unlikely) candidates such as:

Sudhakar Chaturvedi - 2016

Djafar Behbahanian - 2017

Jose Flores Flores - 2022

Elias Chavez Alvarez - 2023

Januario Rubiano - 2023

But until they get validated, this (12 years & 38 days) has been the longest span between two 115 year old men. The shortest was just 1 year & 131 days, and was between Emiliano Mercado del Toro and Anisio Rodrigues Alves.
