Where to purchase trifocals?

by Chris Griggs

Q: Hello, I would like to try tri-focals and would like to know where I can purchase them on-line, in the UK please. (I have tried varifocals for some time but cannot take well to them; recently tried a pair of bi-focals and got on much better; reckon that tri-focals will be the best I can do).

Distance vision very good, but I need x 2 for rdg and I guess x1 for intermediate

Thank you

A: Hi Chris,

Well you can try the trifocals, the time to get used to them will be longer than with bifocals, but I think you will make it.

I will tell you also the alternative: because your distance vision is clear, you can try the office lenses also known as occupational lenses or degressive lenses.

These are the eyeglass lenses that have only intermediary and close vision diopters. They are like the varifocals (progressive lenses), but without the distance vision area. Because of this, the distance between the diopters on the lens is bigger, so the accommodation is easier (i.e. It is not that difficult as with the varifocals).

Because you will have to wear the glasses only at the computer or for office work and for near vision (reading), and do not need them for distance vision, you can take advantage of this in the summer, when you will be able to wear sunglasses.
