Thanks McKenzy, Andrew and [?]. Monocles seem to be the solution. Since getting cataract surgery (plastic lenses) in both eyes some 8-9 years ago now, after 40+ years of dealing with strong myopia and astigmatism, I'm too happy with my 20/20 to 20/40 in-bright-Georgia-O'Keefe-level-NM-sunlight vision to want to hassle with distance-correcting lenses while riding. (I can see fine for bike riding at night as well as in daytime, but for driving I need slight help at night and keep a pair of driving glasses in the car for after sundown).
