    You will soon get used to them -- honest! Just relax and don't try so hard. (I have trifocals with no lines and I love them!)

    It took me awhile to get used to mine, but now they are great. Just stick with it.

    Your brain will adjust in a few days. If it doesn't get them rechecked.

    Like the others said...it'll take a few days to get used to them.
    I tried the titanium frames. Couldn't do it. Felt like nothing was there and felt weird...yea, I know, I don't like wearing my glasses, one reason I have contacts too. I wear my contacts out in town because I don't like people seeing me in my glasses. lol

    Silly girl. But I do the same thing. Wear my contacts when I'm out and about.

    Me too. At 64, it's time to get over that for me, I think. Old habits die hard.

    I had to get bifocals when I hit 41...everything went haywire...
    I got the no line ones and had no problems with them at all.
    Now I would like to go back to contacts...
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    I don't even know what they do for bifocal wearers in regards to contacts.
    anyhelp would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kirsten
