Progressive vs Bifocal question.
I have had progresives lenses for 5 years but as the add has increased (on my 3rd pair now, up to 1.5, started at .75 ) I find that reading for pleasure is a pain as I am always trying to find the correct place in the lenses.
I asked the eye doctor about getting a pair of bifocals (in my old frames) to use for book reading and such. He suggested not switching to bifocals as now it would be ok (I am far sighted) but as I get older bifocals would not be enough and that no one likes trifocals so it was better to try to stay in the progressive.
So do most people have problems with trifocals?
Can I switch between bifocals and a pal as needed or will this cause me to get out of practice on the pal?
Thanks
Tom

Get yourself a pair large segment straight top bifocals 28 or 35.................the top adjusted for computer distance...................and you will be happy for ever................easy redaing and good computer vision. No need for AR neede but maybe a light tint might help against fatigue.

I would just like to see everybody to agree with above statement.
