  I have not run into such problems,but I think you can ask your friends or sister or someone else to help you finish the eye makeup if available.

• Are bifocal contact lenses easy to use?

  If it is your first time wearing contacts,you may have difficulty putting them in and getting out. They are not as easy as glasses to use.But when you are buying them,your doctor would tell you how to use them.Once you get used to them,it is much easier.

  I think you are meaning the "prescription stacking".It may be not practicable and inconvenient.What would you do if you need to see things far away?Take off your reading glasses? The contacts are not enough to correct your vision obviously.

• Can I get bifocal prescription contacts?

  Yes,bifocal contacts can be got in most optical stores and online stores.But before you wear them,you need to have an eye exam to determine whether you are a good candidate for contacts.It is responsible for your eye health.
