Eagle Eye

Thanks so much for the feedback! I certainly hear you that wearing bifocals and trying to look at the ball out of the bottom of your glasses causes incredible neck strain and disorientation. I guess I’m just still having trouble changing focus from near to far objects. My normal glasses (distance correction only) don’t help with putting, for example, when I’m trying to look at the ball closer to me. The technical condition is called presbyopia, where the eye’s lenses become less flexible and can’t bend to easily change focus to view nearby objects. Have you been able to accommodate for this when wearing just your normal glasses?

I realize this thread is a little old, but I thought I'd go ahead and comment as I'm an aging golfer myself and am trying to explore my options for better vision on the course. I've seen some of my peers with bifocals, progressives or switching between lenses as they prepare for a shot, but I tried it and have found it extremely frustrating. I would love to hear more about the solutions other older golfers have found!

Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself. I just joined this forum today, although I've been keeping up on the threads for quite some time now. I am glad to meet you all and can’t wait to start talking. Happy golfing!
