Hi

I am both shortsighted and now have that thing where you need bi- or
multifocals.

Years ago, b4 contact lenses, I had lenses in my mask. Since the advent of
contacts, I haven't needed to but now with this new "degeneration" I am
having problems.

You can't get multifocal contacts because the contact lens simply moves with
your eyeball. The optician has given me one short and one long lens
theorising that the brain will adjust to the right input, albeit from one
eye only.

This is a real pain as I am getting neither option performed well ie the
long one is not as definitive as it could be and the short one is useless
backing up the long one.

Anyone here worked out how to get around this annoying problem? I could go
back to lenses in my mask but would like to consider other options first.
