Not that I know of. I have tried to find them too and have to make do with those sort of half glasses - I get them in Costco - three pairs for £12. If you go to an opticians they will make bifocals for you but it costs alot and they also look quite ugly as there is a definite line accross the lens. You can get variofocals which have no line, but they cost from £100 plus the cost of the frames.Jane

My answer to this problem is to have lots of pairs of cheap 'half-glasses' so that I have a pair everywhere I'm likely to need one!Signature removed for peace of mind0
