I should NOT have gone to specsavers

So I go for a contact lenses refit,I really prefer them over glasses   anyway I explain I want to be able to see near and far,in my book that means varifocal Right? wrong the woman serving me says no! this is not possible and I would have to have one eye for reading and the other for distance   WTH   that would be like having one lens from a reading glass fitted to your distance glasses   so she sent me off with single vision distance lenses and said I would have to use a magnifier if I needed to read LMAO at the time I trusted what she was telling me but since researching a little I've figured out she gave me a load of BS   I due back tomorrow and man is she in for a poke in the eye

Be sure to use a sharp stick.

Just don't run with it.

I don't know much about contact lenses, but this sounds like complete nonsense to me  I guess you would end up with headache and not seeing anything at all. Or you would need to wear an eyepatch over the eye you don't need. Like a pirate

Yeah I really think she was rushing to go on a break maybe,I have had varifocal glasses so why not contact lenses + I know they're available everywhere  Mind you the pirate patch sound good to me

I'll run up there with a blunt one and sharpen it in the waiting room

Actually that makes sense.

The human brain is a powerful thing and although it would take you a little while to adapt (two weeks ish) its quite common for people to have one distance and one near vision contact lens.
