I recently went for varifocals after many many years of single vision glasses and contacts. They felt very odd at first, they’re not the most basic form, they’re Specsavers £75 option, but after wearing them for a couple of days I felt confident enough to order the free sunnies with the same lens and I love them to bits. It’s do much easier now not having to take my glasses off to read a magazine or a label or a CD in a shop, and, unlike takisawa they are fantastic for driving, I can actually see clearly my dash instruments and heater controls while still being able to see the road, and it’s made it possible for me to use CoPilot on my iPhone on a windscreen mount and be able to see what I’m doing safely, which made a three hour drive down to South Devon a doddle. If taki’s finding them dangerous then it sounds like he hasn’t acclimatised to them properly yet. They, unlike most lenses, need a lot more time to get used to them. I now wear mine all the time at work, whereas I used to take them off indoors because it was such a pain having to take them off to see to work, but put them on again for outside. Love’em.
