After 40 years of nothing but contacts, and later supplemented by readers, Costco introduced me to progressives in 2017 and I haven’t looked back. I have, however, looked up and down and left and right and it is amazing. I used their in-store ophthalmologist and it was great. Now maybe it’s because I was tired of dealing with all the contact issues, or having to tote along readers to see up close, but I gotta say that I love the progressives. I had Perry Ellis frames that were just stellar and lasted me until an ocean wave blasted them off in Costa Rica last December. DUH. Do not go in the ocean with glasses on. The new frames are generic-ish and they’re OK, but not as comfortable. But those progressive lenses - wow. Love 'em.
