I have tried lots of different ones, and still always seem to need to rub them, even when I have used the hydrogen peroxide cleaners. If the lenses are not completely 100% clean, the edges feel very obvious indeed.

Perhaps you should try a different cleaner? It might help?
You said you have presbyopia in both eyes since turning 40. I hear that happens to almost everybody. I just turned 40 about six months ago. I wear glasses for distance vision, but I still don't need glasses to read. Did you become far sighted immediately after turning the big 4-0? What can I expect now that I'm--as the kids say--40 and a half?
