[Does so]

...when I found out at the driver's license office that I had presbyopia.

I see what you did there... ;)

[Does so]

I've been planning on getting cataract surgery in the next few months, but my summer schedule involves a lot of long drives between states. It's been difficult, as the surgeon requires two appointments before surgery, then two appointments afterwards.

A friend in his 60's had the surgery, but opted to keep wearing his old prescription glasses full-time.

I was delighted with "Smart Seg" progressives, but they went out of business: full progressives make me dizzy. (I overheard a similar result, so it's probably just not me).

Anyway, I prefer my computer screen 30" away, and am a bird- and plane-watcher by day. I'm thinking my friend has it right. I'm in my mid-70s—what other choices should I consider?
