Bifocals for Golfing

I recently came across a website that showed a picture of special bifocal eyeglasses specially designed for the golfer. The part that magnifies was way down at the bottom of the lens and off to one side. I have two questions. Do these "golfer's glasses" really exist, and how does that odd arrangement help one's golf game?

I think you're referring to this site: [url=http://www.visionforegolfing.com/]Vision Fore Golfing Home. Eyeglasses for golfing, golf eye glasses, better vision for your golf game, see better with a sharper clearer image through custom made eyeglasses for golf.[/url].

How it improves your game would be the ability to look down and focus on the ball better. Moreover, you'd need distance vision to see where the ball is heading.

Maybe I need to look into these glasses that way I could see the ball better when I try to hit it. That way it would not take me so long to hit a ball.

Have you heard this one? "Golf is a game where the player places a ball that's one inch in diameter on top of another ball that's eight thousand miles in diameter, and the object is to hit the little ball."

I think I saw that joke someplace else on this forum. Oh well, I hope the one who posted it doesn't mind me using it.

Wow! That bifocals is very interesting. My father likes to play golf and it could be very helpful for him. Anyway, I haven't heard much about this. Is it available in the market now?
