I had cataract surgery, and wanted to get back into casting, but I was having trouble even with the simple seeing tasks like boolit inpection. I had some readers, but had bought some that were too powerful. I am going to get noline progressive bifocal lenses that are clear on top and readers on the bottom.
I found I could read with the readers, but computer use was a problem, and anything at arms length. I also didn't want to get new bifocal lenses until my eyes settled down. I found a good solution with the safety glasses below. I also remember someone else posting about casting with one lense out of his regular glasses and having a close call.
I practiced watching tv and reading a book at the same time last night, and it worked pretty well. If you do a search, you can find glasses with higher powered readers than the source below, but they cost a little more.
