It worked out great as I do not need glasses for most things, though I do use them for the computer and readng. The right eye prescription is almost blank and the left eye lens brings the eye to close-up. This avoids eyestrain on the more heavily used eye. I drive without glasses with no particular problem as the brain tricks you into binocular vision. The only problem I've run into is that I have to close my close eye when taking the eye test at the DMV, as the machine doesn't "get" what I am doing.
