You get used to them rather quickly I think. My wife wore them for many years and had no problems.

I have a lot of astigmatism and the optometrist told me they don't work well with people that need significant amounts of astigmatism correction.

Tabby my youngest daughter wears progressives when she is not wearing contacts. Tabster has eyes like her mother. She is mildly near sighted. My oldest daughter is "blessed" with my eyes and can't wear them.

Sounds as if that is one of the problems then with my friend because he has a mild astigmatism.

So along with his engineer ultra critical standpoint and above problem I would think this is why he had so many problems as there are other engineers at our company who wear them who say whilst they are not perfect they can learn to use them for work.

Fortunately I get along just fine using cheap dime store glasses. For the first thirty years of drafting, I did not even need any glasses at all.
