I have no problem with my progressive lenses.  I use Maui Jim polycarbonate and they are great

> I've had a similar experience to Bob -- I have prescription progressive lenses and have several sets of lenses for my Oakley sunglasses that I use for bicycling in various conditions.  They do NOT work well for pattern flying.  On the recommendation of Jon Carter (D7 VP) I investigated the "Rudy Project" sunglasses with prescription inserts.  I had the insert made with my distance prescription only and I have the polachromic red and golf green (both nice, high-contrast lens colors) and usually fly with the Red.  I *love* them.  The only hassle is having to switch glasses when I need to do something close up like mess with my radio, read my scores, or use my iDevices.  It's worth it though!

>> Ron, I had similar struggles before implants....and decided to get single-vision distance prescription Serengeti Drivers (non-Gradient).  They were about $400 give or take, but made it well worth it.  At that time my "normal" glasses were progressive no-line bifocals, and the in-between distance just didn't work for me with pattern.  The distance Rx did, though.
