Matt, you can get polarizing bifocals. My sunglasses are bifocals because I'm farsighted and need them to be able to read anything close up. Used to use that all the time in Monterey where I would paddle out for a while and just sit there reading a pocket book listening for a whale blow. They work quite well. I, too, go with identical memory titanium frames, for the same reasons you mentioned, plus they don't corrode after exposure to seawater. That is something that has been a problem with at least some component of all my other frames I've had over the years. Titanium is great stuff, my Citizen Solar watch has a titanium case and band and still looks almost new after more than 5 years of paddling and some diving.
