One more thing. Do you know why you carry all those clubs in your golf bag? Because the clubs are specialized. PALs are the best all-around lenses. Even though you can putt with your driver, you would probably do better with your putter. You can climb a ladder wearing PALs, but you'd do better in a pair without the bifocal. I know, that means another pair of glasses *sigh*, but how many different kinds of shoes do you own? Do you wear your flip-flops or sandals out in the snow? Your sneakers to a wedding? Do you haul wood in your Jag? Do you cut plywood with your coping saw? Do you swim in your tuxedo. Ok, I'll stop. I have (yeah, they're free, or just about free) clear PALs, Sun PALs, lined bifocals, computer glasses, and single vision transitions (clear/dark) for sports and lawn/housework. Then there are specialized lenses for some particular occupations, which are pretty cool. If you can afford them, get yourself some task-specific glasses, to maximize your visual performance.
