As a 55 man constantly switching glasses, taking them off, losing the “right” pair, etc. please please please …
progressive bifocals.
I have a pair on right now. They're better than not seeing correctly, but only being able to focus on a computer screen with less than a third of your vertical field of view sucks. There are options, but one of the best is having more sets of glasses, which isn't convenient or cheap. These could solve that. I'm sure Amazon will make it not worth it at some point, though.
Zenni. Have your doc write a scrip for standalone monitor glasses and have them fill that. (Had bad luck with Zenni doing progressives, but a simple reader prescription? $20)
Ive thought of it. Probably going to do sunglasses first, t'hough. Or rather second, after my single vision safety glasses.
Yeah Amazon will figure out a way to enshittify them for sure. Most. Likely with a subscription program for what should be totally standalone.

Nausea-inducing bifocals? No thanks.
