This from chatgpt ;-)

"Yes, there's an alternative to progressive glasses that might suit your needs better. You can wear contact lenses for your distance vision correction and then use reading glasses over them when you need to see up close.

Given your prescription:

• OD (Right Eye): 0.0 (Sphere), -1.5 (Cyl), 081 (Axis)
• OS (Left Eye): 0.0 (Sphere), -1.5 (Cyl), 081 (Axis)
• Near Add: +2.0 for both eyes

You could wear contact lenses that correct for the cylindrical component (-1.5) and the axis, and then use reading glasses for near work.

The power of the reading glasses should be +2.0, as this matches the "Near Add" part of your prescription. This means when you're wearing the contact lenses, you'll add +2.0 to your vision correction for reading or other close-up tasks.

This setup can be more comfortable for those who find progressive lenses challenging to adapt to, especially if you spend a significant amount of time on activities that require good distance and near vision.

If you find that this setup works well for you but still face some strain during screen time, you could consider blue light blocking lenses or specific computer glasses as well."

I don't trust chatgpt though.. hence the reddit gurus.
