Default Re: Bifocals, or separate distance and reading glasses?

Try progressive lenses, there is no line and you can adjust for the intermediate vision needs (the panel) by tilting you head a little. I prefer them to bifocals - the line made me crazy. As an option, the FAA now also allow mutifocal contact lenses that work like bifocals but are in a contact.
