looking for eye clinic / doctor

[singaporeflyer]

I got a pair from Owndays about 4 years ago before I retired and almost wrecked the company car on the way home from work. (Progressive trifocals). Sadly the center (PC distance) focal was way to narrow and not across the whole lens so was hard to used and when I spent 10+ hrs a day on the PC (dual monitors) I still had to keep turning my head to scan across the screen. Add to that when driving, I glance down to see the dashboard guages the whole dash board looked like waves. Lost my concentration several time and also felt like vertigo. Stopped wearing them after a week of hell. Not worn them since.

oops and sorry.

Depending on you degree needed and range of motion (if you get full width progressive they will cost between 2 & 3X more). If you can train your brain that eye scanning left to right to left can no longer be done then it's okay. Or if you only need bifocals and the bottom are only for reading, e.g., newspaper, magazine or documents you should be okay. My problem was with trifocals were the help I really needed was with the PC degree in the middle and it was way to narrow side to side and thin top to bottom to be effective more than troublesome. YMMV
