Progressive lenses, reading help at the bottom and distance help at the top, and pretty quick 'transition' from clear to dark for the bright sunlight here. I had an extra pair made in a wraparound sport style, as I used to use my all-day lightweight half-frames for cycling too, but my optician said that the really bright sunlight would glint in and cause harm. (Don't think that was a sales pitch as it was only the choice of frame style, the business offers a 2 for 1 deal!)

Happy with them.

One thing, though - still don't like going down staircases or escalators, looking down through the 'reading' part of the lenses! Often hitch them onto the top of my head for that!
