I know several people with this same problem , they always end up looking below the glasses or are trying to adjust them so they dont cut down the vision due to the nature of bifocals , my friend Vic ''the destroyer"" had gone to his eye doctor and told him the delima and how it effects his pool game , the doctor showed him a pair of bifocals for people that are real sprots minded , they sit a little higher over his eyes so he can easily see without the need to peek over the bifocal protion of the glasses , before he was always pulling the glasses down toward his nose to line up a shot ..talk to your optomoligist he will have a solution ,this is a common thing it effects other activities not just pool .Why are snooker commentators so critical of the players?
Never really had a problem (maybe that why I am not on the tour)..someone suggested single vision glasses to me once and that was a "blind leading the blind" idea...the cue ball is close and I see it fine and the object ball is "OK" to me...never really had problems...but I might just be wrong..seriously, maybe that is why I miss some at times when I should have made them..."golly" now I really have an excuse...really, I do alright with my game with bifocals....but maybe this something that I need to check out and maybe it would take me to the next level...if it does remind me to send you your 1% fee for the "insight" to this possible problem...I am a regular Pool player but recently the applet is not loading. Kindly solve the problem.?
