Ditto for me. I got new progressive lenses a short while back which are narrower (that's the fashion now) than my previous ones -- the change in focus happens over a smaller area and that took getting used to. I had my old lenses converted to single vision Polaroids --great for driving but a pain in the butt when trying to read the street directory - have to take them off. I didn't realize how dependent you can become on progressives.

Big downside of progressive lenses: big bucks.
