Bifoculars

Finally, new glasses ans bifocals, I'll be able to read books again. I've had to remove my glasses to see close up for the last couple of years, now, my medicaid has been restored and the first thing on the list was new glasses and bifocals.
I was going to settle for a basic ugly black plastic pair of frames, but I didn't have to, I'm going to order a new book just to break them in.:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

1. I'm going back to single vision lenses.

I tried progressive lenses and now I have line-free bifocals. I found with both that I had to hold my head at an uncomfortable angle to read so I'm still taking my glasses off to read up close stuff.

3. I got my first bifocals a couple years ago

they were a huge help. It was great to read the small print again.
