Interesting new development for us 4-eyed folk... electronic focusinglens
 

This is rather interesting, glasses that can be switched from bi-focal
to regular lens in milliseconds, either manually or automatically.

Price, according to demonstrator, will carry a 'slight' premium over
blended lenses in a high quality frame. Probably won't see these on
Zenni anytime soon.... :(

Yeah, "only" a couple grand more than the normal $600/pair for those
damnable progressive lenses.

Wasn't Elvis Costello wearing a prototype of these years ago?
