Glasses with two distinct optical powers are named “Bifocals”. In bifocals, each lens is alienated into two parts- the upper segment of the lens is a convex lens which is used for viewing objects in a distance and the lower segment which is affixed with a concave lens is used for close viewing and reading purposes. Main reason to wear bifocals is that this kind of eyeglasses can help adjust both near as well as distance visions. In bifocals, two separate prescriptions were enclosed in a single lens.
With the emergence of many online vendors, buying of bifocal glasses is simple and easy. Undoubtedly, getting a bifocal pair of eyeglass is always a better option rather than switching to and having two pair of eyeglasses; one pair of reading and another pair for single vision.
