Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 I'm thinking of getting monovison contacts, where one eye is for distance and one for reading. That is how I naturally use my eyes, due to their differences. Only now I have started needing correction for reading. Lee > For You Lee anything!!!!! Sounds better anyways...

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 I have mono vision contacts ... they work really well for me. The only place they don't work is with objects about 6 to 7 feet away. Also driving at nite is a real challange...but other than that, I'm happy them.
