My 'golf glasses' also have a fairly large and flat lens so that distortion is kept to a minimum...and peripheral vision to a maximum.

An added benefit, is that my golf glasses can work as a substitute in a pinch...should something happen to my trifocals.

This system works great for me.

Ditto. I have a pair of glasses for distance only. I use them for pickleball and tennis.


My problem is no bifocal prescription I've ever gotten is as good as just taking my glasses off to read the computer or a book. I would like my next pair of progressives to have distance on the top and nothing on the bottom. Not sure if I'll be able to find someone to do that.
