I do see my opthamologist once a year and mono vision is what he prescribed. This is about as close as I am going to get to perfect. I have tried biofocals and never could get used to them. Many, many people use mono-vision contacts and it is gives "good" correction for distance and "good" correction for closer work, such as reading; but never "Pefect" for either one. It is the same problem many older people who have had lasix surgery are starting to have. The eye with no correction is perfect vision; but the eye that is corrected for distance distorts very close work. Even my doctor has said a pair of cheaters for up close might help. I guess that is what I was wondering. If anyone else has prescribed mono vision lenses and also wears cheaters. No, I would also not consider monkeying around on my own; and I will be seeing the doctor again before the end of the year. But I thought maybe the quilters here might have a better idea of what works for this type work than he will.
