I tried progressives and they didn't work for me; I found them dangerous on stairs and with power tools because the sweet spot was too small. I'm not an expert about them and I know they have improved them, and there are many companies with different versions; maybe it will work for you. I feel that the main difference is that with my Trufocals the entire sweet spot -- much larger than in the progressives I tried -- changes to whatever distance I'm needing. They seem particularly well suited to a relatively unchanging distance that you'll work at for a few minutes or more -- like computers, or reading, or a woodworking or kitchen task. In each of these the area I get to see is larger than the progressives gave me, and the edging areas are closer to actual focus also. With the progressives, the area outside the sweetspot was extremely out of focus. But again, I know there are many different progressives. However, the more expensive ones are close to the Truefocals price, and you might need them to match its precision area.

I have the Superfocus "Truefocals" Astonishingly, they work. I'm wearing them right now. I couldn't have continued computer work without them. I searched and read everything, and decided to try them: good company, full 100% refund for 30 days when I bought them (and they pay shipping both ways). I'm getting so I use them for many other things -- woodworking, reading small print on physical manuals. They're 50% heavier than normal glasses. But the bottom line is: they work. I can adjust to any distance just by touching the slider. I wear them 8 hours a day; have for about six months now. If I broke them I'd buy another pair immediately.
