I'm farsighted as well.+1.75/+1.50. Wear my glasses at work all day, everyday.(Cad Designer).
I wear contacts only when I golf, or shoot pool.Sometimes when I drive.
I've been wearing contacts now, for around 3-4 years,after just removing glasses when shooting. For me, wearing glasses at the table was not an option.I would of rather not play at all, if I had to adjust with glasses at the table.
Contacts, if set up correctly for someone who is farsighted, can be a game changer.
I told my doctor, I wanted my normal reading glasses for work, reading etc..., but I wanted contacts for shooting pool. I asked him to set my contact script for 2-12 ft, and forget about the distance. First doctor told me nope, not gonna work. Try these mono vision contacts instead. Give them a week to get use to them. I went back a week later, and told him I would rather go without contacts if I had to were these. Mono vision for me did not work. Felt like vertigo.
Fast forward 1 year, I tried a different doctor. Same deal, I want normal reading glasses for work, and contacts set at 2-12 ft for shooting pool ONLY. I won't be using them for anything other that pool. I just want a simple daily contact I can wear once, and throw away.
So she did the exam, and said " you may be surprised to find that setting these contacts at 2-12 ft may actually help your distance as well."
Huh..? Whhhaaat?
She was right, they did slightly sharpen my distance as well.
That's how she set me up. Dailies Aqua ComfortPlus. +1.75L/+1.5R
They cost me a little less than a buck apiece, and I can wear them while driving.
At the table, it's a Night and Day difference. Best $$ I've ever spent for my game.
So don't be afraid to ask around, if your doctor tells you you can't have them set 2-12 ft.
On a side note, I have a couple of buddies who swear that, for them, Mono vision is the way to go....go figure.
