Is that the same as Progressives? I have them. I hate the areas that don’t work on the sides. People get used to them I guess, but I don’t have to wear mine most of the time. And even if you are used to it, that means you have some distorted peripheral vision when you wear them.
They can be depending on your vision issues. Mine are essentially bifocals where the reading portion isn’t visible. If I focus there’s a tiny fuzzy line where the readers meet the normal lens.
To be honest I wasn’t aware of the sides issue and it seems you might have different problem that requires a third lens.
Hm. Checking my glasses I think there is something on the top too. I can see distance ever so slightly clearer looking out the top. If I remember right, I have a minus .25 in one eye. Always been told it didn’t need correction, but maybe it is in this pair. I should go get some off the shelf progressive readers and try those.
