I recently had a mother in with a toddler in a bifocal lens. The RX was somehwere around +16.00 and the child was in a blended bifocal. I have had no real experience with these. I have read a little bit about them and I know my doctors never want me to put a child in them. The parent was insistant on them saying that is what she has always been told that is what she needed and that she didn't want people to see her daughters bifocal. I explained why we us a lined bifocal and about how much easier it will be for her daughter to us. The only reason the doctor wanted her to get new glasses was to get her out of those bifocals. Now I am second guessing my self. Am I wrong to put kids in a ft 28 ? What would the benefits be to the blended bifocal aside from looks?
