Camera/Mirror Quirkiness

I have progressive lens.  If I intentionally look through the top part of the lens (distance) no problem.   It was using the part of the lens that I use for reading which is just a few inches away, that causes visual confusion. Many of the other ??? I have solved by searching the online 400+ page CT5 manual that I wish Cadillac had included.   I know, most buyers never read it; they settle for the quick start guides.  I am a bit weird on this.

  1. I have progressive lenses, too. Once, to save some money, I bought the knockoff copies. Apparently to get around patents, the knockoff manufacturer changed the proportions of the portions of the lenses for distance and close looking, and I found to my dismay that in order to drive my car I had to tip my head towards my chest in order to see down the road and also see the dashboard.
    If you have the knockoffs, maybe switching to the name brand might help.

  2. I use progressive lenses, and I buy from a cheap online vendor.

    I have no problems, because I have two pairs of glasses, each of which has a modified prescription with only a part of the near-vision adjustment. One pair I use for driving, and provides clear focus from 15 feet to infinity, the other for computer work, and is clear from three feet to twenty or so.
