Yeay... can't see the big E... somebody who understands! Warpspeed & Azone... I have just entered into the bifocal world. I tried progressive lenses last year and they sucked... I absolutely hated them. They were useless for shooting off a bench (which I do a lot of) and going to bifocals is a whole 'nother issue. I am trying to locate someone who can make me a pair with the bifocal in intermediate focal length on the top. I actually sent an email to Decot and just got a response that I should call them to discuss it in more detail. Maybe they can make something I can use.

I have to have prescription glasses to walk around the house, let alone shoot. I have tried a couple of sets of prescriptions in frames like the Rudy Project with poor results. I just couldn't use them. Because of the strength of my prescription if I use oversized frames, like common aviator style shooting glasses, my lenses are too thick around the edges to wear. Therefore I have to wear relatively small glasses - which happen to be stylish now - but finding any safety glass to fit over them is a continual and never ending search. I have yet to find any that really 'fit' without feeling like they are about to fall off or are tank commander goggle size. Can anyone recommend a more realistic alternative? I have spent a fortune over the years on $20 shooting glasses that I can't use, so I am willing to try anything - except prescription inserts. I simply must have my lenses close to my eyes and tacking on lenses or inserts to glasses too far from my eyes doesn't work for me. I appreciate any help Mark
