Advice on Multi focal glasses

Hello, Tanya. I have to wear multifocals regularly and I find them terrible for table tennis. I have never used contacts so it's impossible for me to tell the difference. My "solution" was to compromise. I asked my doctor to prescribe a pair of glasses for me that are not multifocal but instead to have the best focus possible for a distance of about 9 to 12 feet (all lenses have some allowance) So now, before I go to the club to play I put away my multifocals and start wearing my "ping-pong" glasses a while before starting to play in order to get used to them. I can't read w/. them but I can play fairly well. I chose that distance because for me the most important issue is to read the spin of my opponent. It would help if they are "frameless"in order to have the least interference when you are following the ball on the limit of the lenses. I hope this may help you.

Thanks i will consider this option :)

I am only recently a member of pingskills so this may be a little late for you. I have tried soft contact lens some years ago and found that they float in the eye when making dynamic movements. Balls go in and out of focus/ I definitely recommend glasses with vari focal lenses.

I also wear glasses that are multifocal and many other things (for example they get dark while on sharp light)

But my eyes are too sensitive and the doctor recommended me to not wear contact lenses,because it caused pain in my eyes.

But I did not give up and I am still trying to train as hard as I can to overcome my extremely bad sight.

As a player who practises defense,I have to be able to catch even the fastest balls.

But because my 7 mm thick glasses do not allow me to see them,I a trying to overcome it with experience and speed.

I do not know any lenses or glasses that can repair my eye mistakes.

But I still do my best to overcome it
