Do you wear sunglasses or clear eye protection glasses? It's easy to find inexpensive wraparound safety glasses that look like biking sport glasses with built-in reader patches.

Stick-on readers!
I've been using stick-on readers on my cycling glasses for years. (I have a prescription insert, just for my distance vision, with a +2 stick-on for reading the Garmin or my phone. I have progressive bifocal glasses off the bike.)

Hydrotac is one brand. I cut one lens in half with a razor knife, then moved it around a little, then trimmed it some more until it was right. It sticks on with a drop of water, and won't come off, even rinsing under the faucet. I could peel it off with a fingernail. I've had these same stick-ons for at least 6 years now, and even transferred them to my new distance insert.

So just the handbar area is in close focus, perfect!
