Thanks for the reply. It seems that my pupils are 3mm in
normal room light and 5mm with it darkened. At dusk
I'm getting a lot of flare/starburst from headlights. I can't
really put my finger on it but I'm always aware that my
left eye is sort of out of it at distance (left has the near
center). I can see a shift from pretty crisp to fuzzy when
looking left. I *think* I really want the acuity there in both
eyes and I want to minimize or eliminate the flare. I'm trying
to talk my doc into trying to fit me with the TS translating
tri-focals.  I'm willing to deal with head positioning, etc,
for the mid and near. He doesn't carry them but he is
going to look into it. If what I have now is the best we
can do I could live with it. Either way I have my mind
set on going RGP.

thanks again,

Thanks for the reply.

Good news: I guess I have pupils on the small side.
3 mm under normal room light but 5 mm in very dim
lighting.
Not so good news: My doc has no experience with
TS and I don't think he has ever fit a trifocal.  He is
sort of balking at it but I'm working him over pretty
hard to give it a try. So far I really like this guy and
am willing to experiment with him if I can talk him
into it. Current ploy is "This is an opportunity to
broaden your experience and give it a try on really
easy to work with patient"... Keeping my fingers
crossed. I'm prepared to pay for it, success or failure
but haven't sprung that on him yet. -:)

I understand they have a large distance and bottom
segment with a 1 mm intermediate segment. Given
my 3 mm pupil size do you think the entire 20" CRT
screen would be visible through the 1 mm intermediate
segment at a distance of 28 to 30 inches?

thanks,
