I actually wear something called bioptics sold by ocutech, I also have albinism so its mostly for that but they really help with distance vision. I would highly recommend checking them out

I know about those but some ppl aren't able to afford something like that. Idk if anyone has vision specialist and if they don't they have to go with the insurance option or ask a low vision specialist and I know some take insurances and others are self pay.

Well I wear my glasses but I also wear contact lenses. I would say try duettes they are a soft contact lens with a hard contact center.
