These nameless pink bifocals were a find in Germany, some fifteen years ago. Their first owner had a fairly difficult prescription not unlike my own. Her left eye may once have been perfect but she later became longsighted. Her right eye was shortsighted with a fair amount of astigmatism. It calls for much patience from both optician and client to find out which prescription gives a proper balance between the two images. My own approach is to give the shortsighted eye a knife sharp correction and the longsighted eye a slightly higher plus correction. The effect has to be tested in the street with a trial frame on. This gives a better overall impression than just reading the chart in the shop.
