I have thought about it, but I have 3 different visions?? And were Bi-Focals. I will have to see if I can do something?? I have only had glasses the last 3 years.

contacts

After getting a couple of waves over the head and worrying about losing my glasses I decided to get daily disposible lenses just for fishing. This way if I lose one Im not out too much $ . I keep a couple of spare pairs in the truck. Im not comfortable wearing contacts all the time so this works for me.

I have Acuvue disposable bi-focal contacts. I wear a pair 24/7 for 3 weeks at a time. I scuba dive and swim with my eyes open and never had a issue with a lost contacts.
If contacts are for you save big money and call
1-800-contacts. This was not intended to sound like a commercial. You can always wear the contacts when your in the surf and take them off when you get home. During your next eye exam ask for both glass and contact subscription.

I believe they are B&L lenses, I can check at home, and are about 1$ a pair from the wholesale club.
