Bifocal Prescription Sunglasses
by Courtney Dryer, OD, October 18, 2024
Bifocal prescription sunglasses are a practical solution for those needing distance and near vision correction outdoors. The prescription lenses are designed with a visible segment separating the two prescription strengths. The distance prescription is at the top of the lens, while the lower segment has the near prescription for reading. Bifocal prescription sunglasses combine your specific vision correction with sun protection, providing clear vision for many visual tasks. You can now see the ocean and read a book on the beach with the same pair of sunglasses. Bifocal prescription sunglasses are available in various frame shapes and material options.

Bifocal Prescription Sunglasses Frames
Frame styles for bifocal prescription sunglasses are designed to blend the practicality of corrective lenses and fashion. The frames are available in various shapes, including rectangular, oval, or round, and many colors and frame materials. Contemporary and “barely-there” frame styles, such as semi-rimless or rimless, can be a great choice for bifocal sunglasses to maintain a sleek and lightweight profile. Fashion-forward choices like an aviator, cat-eye, or oversized frames allow the frame wearer to make a bold fashion statement while enjoying the benefits of bifocal vision correction. Aviators and wayfarer styles will always be in style and work with any attire.
When choosing a pair of bifocal sunglasses, you should consider the frame material, shape, color, and eyeglass prescription. The frame should fit comfortably on your nose to make sure the bifocal segment is in the correct spot for reading. The selection of a frame material is more important if you have a high prescription and require thicker lenses. The frame material can substantially add or decrease the weight of the sunglasses. Metal frames with nose pads are lighter in weight, but a thicker frame may hide the edge profile of the lens and improve the look. Nose pads are essential for those with a flat, low nose bridge to best balance the weight of the frame and lenses.
The shape and color of your bifocal sunglass frame should enhance your natural facial features. The most common face shapes are round, oval, heart-shaped, square, and diamond. If your face angles are softer, an angular frame may provide more definition; however, if your face has many angles, round or oval frames may be better to soften it. Though frame shapes are recommended for certain face shapes, these are not necessarily rules. Bifocal sunglasses frames have many angles and curves that work for various face shapes. Even if you need bifocal lenses in your sunglasses, you can find the perfect sunglass frame for your face shape.
With our virtual try-on, you can be confident in selecting a pair of frames for your bifocal lenses. The online feature allows you to see what you would look like in a particular style of sunglass frames and can be used to identify your face shape. If you click “try-on” from any product page, you can use your digital device’s webcam and the site’s virtual mirror to view the fit of the sunglasses on your face.
High-Quality Lenses
Overnight Glasses delivers high-quality bifocal sunglass lenses with every frame. Depending on your eyeglass prescription, your sunglasses can be ordered with single-vision, lined-bifocal, or progressive lenses. Lined bifocals are available in several different designs. One common design is the flat-top or straight-top bifocal, which consists of a visible horizontal line separating the upper and lower portions of the lens. This design is optimal for distinguishing between distance and near vision correction.
Another common type is the round-segment bifocal, where the near-vision segment is round and located in the lower portion of the lens. Additionally, a blended or no-line bifocal is called a progressive lens. Unlike the segmented designs, these lenses have a gradual transition of power, providing a seamless shift from distance to near vision without a visible line. Each bifocal shape caters to one’s visual demands, lifestyle and aesthetic preferences.
If your eyeglass prescription requires a thinner, lighter lens, we recommend ordering high-index bifocal lenses. For other low to moderate-range sunglass prescriptions, a Trivex lens offers the best optical clarity and is both lightweight and shatter-proof. Please see our guide for the types of eyeglass materials best for different prescriptions.
When you order your bifocal prescription sunglasses, you will be asked to select either tinted or polarized lenses. Tinted lenses are available in many different colors and will change the color of the environment to match the lens tint. A tint color can be added to your bifocal lenses to complement the look and style of your frame. Outdoors enthusiasts prefer polarized lenses because they reduce glare off the water and roads, improving both your visual comfort and safety. The polarization enhances colors, improves contrast, and is preferred by those who enjoy golfing and fishing.
We guarantee your bifocal prescription sunglasses lenses will be easy to clean, UV-protectant, scratch-resistant, and with a premium anti-glare to reduce glare and reflections.
No matter your eyeglass prescription, high-quality bifocal sunglass lenses are available for your choice of frame. Order new bifocal lenses for your prescription sunglasses today!
