[quote=Anonymous]I am severely near sighted (about -6) and just reached the point where I also need reading glasses. From everything ive heard about progressive lenses (blurred peripheral vision, dizziness, having to move your head rather than eyes, difficulty with stairs, etc) they sound awful, and they are very expensive. I’m concerned that I won’t be able to adjust to them. I can actually read without glasses and for years have been just taking my glasses off to read or look at my phone. Besides that it is kind of annoying, is there any harm in continuing to do that? I’ve also considered lasik but understand that then I would not be able to see up close without reading glasses. Has anyone in a similar situation found a solution that is working well? If I do decide to give the progressive lenses a try, any advice on where to get them. I understand that they have improved in recent years and that it is worthwhile to get the digital ones where theymeasure everything very precisely to personalize the fit, but don’t know where they do that. Thanks for any advice or suggestions![/quote]
