Progressive/bi-focal lens
Was amused by comments being made in another thread with respect to font size on the new forum layout and that got me a wondering as to how many beyond members are pondering or actually have glasses with progressive and/or bi-focal options added in.
Personally, I got my first set of progressives at the young age of 40 and I honestly thought that was way too young to have such on option on my glasses but in short order (one day) I had decided that they were here to stay because they made my life so much better. Quite a few years later now and I'm probably due for a stronger progressive option because I now find it frustrating that I can't read small print at the grocery store and such, even threading a needle is just a hit or miss thing - there is no such thing as actually clearly seeing the thread g into the needle's hole.
So considering beyond's aging demographics, are there any beyond members ready to admit they have progressives/bi-focals or probably should have them? Or are you like my one brother who still insists he can see perfectly fine but is unable to focus on anything on his vehicle's dash and he's been in this denial stage for over 10 years. Progressives are not an evil thing IMO and certainly made my life easier - wish I could convince my wife of the same thing but I guess her almost always at ready 4 inch magnifying glass does the trick for her.
