Comment Progressive lenses - wrong for more than computers (Score 1) 464
I'm extremely myopic and briefly tried progressive lenses. Like you, they drove me nuts because so little of the visual field was in focus at any given time. I dumped them quickly and went back to straight distance lenses. I don't actually need glasses for reading fine print, so for medium distance (I keep my computer monitors at the back of my very large desk) I just slide my glasses down my nose to adjust the correction. It's not perfect but it's still better than progressive lenses. (I have poor eyesight but very good visual acuity.)
