BTW, I should mention that I got a pair with "progressive lenses" -- the lower part of the lens is for near focus and the upper part for distant focus.
Well, I've been wearing them for a couple of months now, and I cannot get used to them! I really get bothered by the differences when I'm walking, for instance, and the area in front of me is in focus but the area at my feet is out of focus (unless I turn my head down). I've tripped over more curbs, lately! Besides, when I sit down to read I read for lengthy periods, and I'm most comfortable with my eyes are straight ahead, so I still really need to switch to reading glasses, anyway. The next pair will be conventional glasses.
