| Re: Bifocals
dear mikey,
Well, well, well... you were reading my mind, it seems.
I've been using bi-focals since last year and it's been a challenge, to say the least. I wear them just about full time, now. My biggest issue with them is that when I want to raise my bell the music I'm looking at disappears! I've learned to manage them for the most part and do a lot of memorizing.
It just so happens that today, the very day you post this, I mentioned to my daughter on the way home from picking her up, that I thought I'd go to Pearle Vision and maybe have a pair of glasses made for reading music in orchestra. I don't know how well I'll be able to see the conductor, that's my only concern.
Other than that, I like them. If I weren't a profesional clasical trumpeter they might be great. I can say that I don't like playing ball with them. I can't hit worth a damn with them. It's harder to follow the path of the baseball, so I put on the other regular glasses.
Good luck, that's all I can say.
