    I had my opthamologist prescribe lenses for them that were for the
    distance range I chose. My solution was to keep my regular glasses
    as single vision lenses - these frames came with a flip up and down
    sunglass attachment that's held on both by magnets and tabs that fit
    into a slot near the arms(legs?) of the frames. I had them put my
    adjusted bifocal prescription into lenses that fit the sunglass
    attachment. So I sit at my bench with my regular glasses - for being
    nearsighted - and when I need to see something closer -like stone
    setting, even some soldering I can flip down my "shades" which are
    the clear glass close-up prescription. When I need to look up or get
    up from my bench - I flip them back up and I can see the room again.
    Works pretty well, I can even put my visor down over that too if I
    need.
