If you wear varifocals, but only have a relatively mild prescription for close work, do you also wear varifocal sunglasses? Or do you just have distance sunglasses if you're happy that you can see the speedo etc.? Thanks!

For anyone new to wearing them: The trick with varifocals is to point your nose at what you want to look at so that you are looking through the correct part of the lens. If you just move your eye you’ll get distorted vision.

Goodness, I’ve been wearing varifocals for years with varying degrees of success, I never knew this! Just tried it and what a difference, thanks!

You’re welcome.
