Another suggestion, a little less extreme is to have one contact lens
for reading and one contact for long distance vision. another option in
some cases, is to have the prescription compromised slightly so that the
same lens can be used for both distance and close-up viewing. this is
what I had done when I got new contacts this year. My reading correction
is not real significant, and by doing a minor compromise my optomitrist
was able to correct for the near distance, and still have good far
distance sight with the same lenses.

This one comes up from time to time. You would think that AF would be
handy when the time for reading glasses comes along but I gave up -
couldn't read the bloody LCD on top of the EOS so I never quite knew
what I was doing. I found the OM with split focussing screen much
easier. Same with a cheaper non-SLR didge - you tend to use the screen
instead of the finder and you need the glasses. If I use an E1 in
future, I'll need to wear half moon specs - that's the only way I
could use the demonstrator I played with the other day - the finder
was fine but I had to check the screen and settings with glasses on.
Damn nuisance.
Of course, it is possible to have your eyes lasered separately - one
for reading and the other for distance! Some people actually have that
done and manage to adjust to the mixed input.
