I know vari focals exist but apparently I'm not a good candidate for them as my eyes really struggle to adjust (I have a major squint).
At the moment I carry around 2 pairs of glasses everywhere but it's a faff!
What do people with this do? I basically have a sweet spot about 2 foot away from me and that's it

Yes I'm 49 @utterflapdoodle
I do think going through the menopause also changes your sight!
Thank you everyone for sharing your experiences - it really gives me hope. I know it might sound a bit lame but it's really been getting to me and let's face it, my sight is only getting worse and not better!

That's great. I'm thinking this is where I'll end up so good to know it works. What if your prescription changes in the coming years, though?
