Bill I think you will find that the starting point is what your correction
is a two metres, not infinity. Notwithstanding the other complexities of
course.
For people with distance and close correction glasses (progressives or
multi-focals) try looking through your far and near segments. Far is
completely hopeless for me.

Cheers,
Geoff
