My mom had a really hard time switching from regular prescription to bifocals. She wouldn't drive with them for a really long time.

I had mine made taller--the part on the bottom, that is. It was bugging me SO much, and when the guy raised it, it was MUCH better. Bifocals still goof up your peripheral vision...like when you're shopping--in hunting mode--and you want to see three isles at once, and you only can see what's directly in front of you....it's sooo limiting ;-)

My eye doctor told me it is usually difficult to switch from lined bifocals to the varilux and graduated lens. I never had the lined ones, but I love the graduated lenses. They work great for the computer at work because I stand all day and look down at the screen through the bottom part of the lens, But I need computer glasses for my home computer, or I get a neck ache from tilting my head back to look through the lower part of the lens.
