Ask your optometrist about wearing ONE contact lens.
One eye does distance and the other follows it.

Best thing that I ever saw - it works great.


You can actually get distance for one eye and near for the other, but
here's an even better deal:

My former CFI had eye trouble over the past few years, requiring two
separate operations. By incredible good luck, he actually came out of
the operations with 20/20 distance vision in his right eye, and near
vision for his left! He now almost never uses glasses, though he does
have reading glasses for really small print.

But of course this doesn't really address what the poster needs, which
evidently is some sort of trifocal for his instrument panel.
