I am 47 and my eyesight has taken a turn. I never had to use readers till lately. Yesterday I got my new glasses and these progressive lenses are amazing. No taking and putting on the readers and I don’t think I will wear contacts again.

I've had em for about 4 years. Never had contacts before. Only used readers for a few months. Make sure you go back and get new lenses at least every 2 years. Your eyes will continue to change. I waited almost 3 years before getting rechecked and new lenses. The difference between old and new was huge.

I switched to glasses full time from contacts several years ago. I only wear contact if I'm playing golf or heading to the lake. Oddly enough, I'm probably looking at cataract surgery in a few years and looking forward to it so that I can get lense implants. No contacts and no glasses!

There are big differences in progressive lenses, don't skimp. Anti reflective coatings are also game changers in both appearance and performance.

This is sage advice. I was told by many to get the best progressive lenses possible and get the anti reflective and the darkening lense in the sunlight. I am glad I did all this and my vision has not been this crystal clear in a while plus I don’t have to keep putting on and taking off my reading glasses.

I've been wearing progressive lenses for a few years. I don't need distance correction, only upclose. Mine are clear glass on top, computer distance in the middle and up close on the bottom. I just got tired of putting on and taking off reading glasses.

I’ve worn them for years, my regular glasses and my Sunglasses both have progressive lenses. Love them.
