How about contacts?
I have dealt with bi-focals for the last five years, and got tired of having to grab (or find) my glasses just to do the simplest of tasks.
I've been wearing contacts for over a year now, and while there are some issues, it's good to not have to ensure that your glasses are on hand prior to doing something or venturing somewhere.
Unfortunately, contacts aren't the perfect solution. My eyes get irritated within a week of wearing the lenses for prolonged periods, so I have to alternate between contacts and glasses.
I'm doing glasses this week...
