That sounds like fun, Winsor. I go to an optician who is paid by the
Ministry of Defence to provide me with spectacles for flying. I then
use that prescription to update my own spectacles from an optician
closer to home (Cambridge, UK). I have always had varifocal
(progressive bifocals?) lenses with photochromic lenses and I have
never had a problem.
