I've had mine for at least 10 years and I swear by them with the single exception that John mentioned -- working close up under the dash can be a challenge.

Adjusting to them was very quick == no problems.
I did get the flexible frames which, although more expensive at first, have probably paid for themselves by not breaking.

Peter,

I have had progressive lenses for about 12 years now. I like them a lot better than the lined bifocals. It took some slight adjusting but I was probably used to them by day three or so.

Hope they work out well for you.

I've had them for a couple of years. I adjusted after about 2 days. The only time they are a pain is in working close under the dash or under the car, it seems difficult to keep my head tilted correctly for close vision. If I did that a lot, I would probably buy single vision reading glasses. Otherwise no real problem after the intitial adjustment period.

I just got a pair of progressive prescription glasses. In adjusting to them, I am turning my head at different angles than I have been use to, thus getting some pretty good neck and shoulder pains. Just seeing if this is common from others that have the same glasses.
