Bifocal Sunglasses

[Dirk]

This may be teaching your granny to suck eggs......
I didn't realise that you could get bifocal sunglasses!
As I need to wear reading glasses for close up work, I could never read the information on the smaller panels of my Garmin 810......until now!
I did a search on a well known auction site for 'bifocal sports sports glasses' and turned up some half decent looking ones for £11.99 with free p&p.
I bought a pair of smoke and a pair of clear.
Should have done it years ago!

I've got a pair of the Dual ones, very handy for map reading on tour.

Must admit I was tempted by these, 3 pairs for £25 ... anybody else tried them?

They look almost the same as the ones I bought.
If you are using them on a bike you might find that you need a different strength, as you are generally focusing at a greater distance than you would be if reading a book.

Ordered. Thanks.

You can buy stick on reading lenses and stick them on to whatever glasses you like.

Cheers, got a pair.....Hopefully now I'll be able to see the Garmin without having to sit further back on the seat and missing the ar*hole that's about to pull out of the junction in front of me..
