How about contact lenses (for distant vision) plus reading glasses that
you can perch on your nose to read the charts.

I wore contacts for 10 years, and grew to really hate the routine, as well
as what hay fever, dust, and air conditioning did to my eyes while wearing
them.

How long ago was that? Today's lenses are much more oxygen-permeable. For
many people, the "routine" now consists of wearing the lenses for a week,
taking them out, throwing them away, and putting in a new pair.
