Default Bifocal Prescrption

When I get an eye exam I always state that I want my bifocals to have a focus point at 24 inch from my face. At 24 inch I can clearly see my computer, read the paper and see the dashboard in my car. It never fails that when I have new glasses made, I can’t see the dashboard clearly thru my bifocals nor my far vision. When I complain, I hear the same tired old response, you need trifocals or progressives. Trifocals and progressives interfere with my golf swing. Every time, I have to argue until I receive a prescription with bifocals focal best at 24 inches from my face. Then, I see the dashboard, read and my phone/computer screen just fine and my golf ball thru my far vision just fine. So, please do what I pay for and not what you the tech believes is best for me. Ggggggeeeeezzzz!!!
