Fancy means:

You can find virtually anything on Amazon. Readers.com has an extremely good selection and reasonable pricing.

I do not like the progressive lenses. You have to angle your head so that you can read what you want. If you are moving from one thing to another, your head is bobbing all over the place.

FYI, I use BIG lenses in the 1.0's. I use the small lenses for my 1.5's. This way I can look over the 1.5s for things at a distance. The 1.0s I can see reasonably at a distance, if needed.

I do hate them. Fingerprints. Having to put them on, take them off, all the time.

In the big packs, you get a variety of colors. The pink ones invariably end up in the bathrooms.
