varifocals: it's official, I'm middle-aged

As people have previously said they are expensive, and I for one can't get on with them. But then I hate changing my glasses whenever I have to read, so I am torn between the two. BTW I am fifty in a few months and have been wearing varifocals for about 6-7 years now :lol:

 

My very expensive varifocals (cost £500) are made of Titanium so they are very light and you hardly notice wearing them,they also darken when outside (can't remember the name) I do get funny looks from people sometimes,especially if it's raining or snowing and no sun around ! I couldn't go back to wearing the other sort now.

 

Glad you are pleased with your new varifocals. I have had varifocals for the past 18 months. A bit of getting used to and things aren't perfect, but neither are my eyes :lol:
I only wear them when I go out, I don't wear them in the house. I find that I can't see my laptop in the middle distance. I was told it all depends on how deep the frame is. As I like to be stylish I went for slimmer Jai Kudo plastic frames.
I couldn't be without my varifocals, I wouldn't be able to see my iPhone :lol: And yes I am 54, so middle aged :roll:
I also had a tint put on the glasses, so I can wear them all year round and not get blinded by the sun 8)

 

Definitely no resemblance to Deidre then BB? Shouldn't laugh cause I have a appointment on Monday to have eye check up at specsavers, I'll probably have to remortgage the house by the time I come out.
