My prescription is a strong -7.5 diopters, plus about 2 diopters of astigmatism correction. I have an "easy clip" system with temple-mounted magnets to attach either sunglasses or clear +1.5 reading glasses. For bicycling, single-vision works fine, since I can always slide my glasses down my nose for reading or remove them to read fine print. (The sole benefit of being radically myopic is that one can function quite well without bi/tri-focals.)
