May I ask exactly what the Panamic does differently than the Comfort? I want to know what the advantages and disadvantages are with each lens for a progressive wearer with an add +2.50. I thought I heard that the Panamic gives a wider reading area. Does that make the distance different? How much reading area does the Comfort give then? I just want to know the pros and cons. I was also under the impression that the Panamics cost a bit more, but this optician is charging me the Panamic price for both. (His wife who works at the counter inadvertently quoted me $100 for the Crizal Alize instead of the new price of $125, so I guess he's making it up with a higher priced Comfort.)
