I just had to get glasses myself. The heartbreak of presbyopia.
I got progressives for general use and I've noticed that they work best when
you are looking directly at something--ie glancing at something doesn't give
good correction.
For this reason, I got lined lenses for flying. I want to be able to glance
at something without moving my head and see it sharply. I want to take
advantage of my peripheral vision and I question that too with progressives.
Got the Maui Jim's that have a rose/brown tint. Very good for spotting haze
domes & wing glint, minimal color distortion.

Help. I am at that age. I wear contacts for distance vision but now my
arms are getting too short also. Causing headaches and queasiness when
trying to read my instruments, especially the PDA.

I would like to hear back from others on what decision they made on
progressive vs. lined lenses for sunglasses?

Thanks
