Prescription sunglasses

[Fontinalis]

I am debating about getting single vision or no line multifocal prescription sunglasses. Oakley makes them. They are pretty much the only outfit that makes the curved sunglasses with no line multifocal prescription. And they give you 60 days to either keep them or return them.

I am told by the opticien that people go either way. When I have tried a pair of single vision (the prescription I need to see far) I can't see well my bike (the speed knob for instance) or underneat the bike (that big hole in the ground I'm about to hit!).

Some people advised me against going with multifocal because the curved lenses distort the fields, and might be difficult to adapt to.

So, my question : are any of you had to take that decision ? what did you go with ? and how has it worked for you ?

Thank you.
