Introduction

Get ready to toss those bifocals aside and celebrate Bifocals at the Monitor Liberation Day on December 1! This day was created to honor the invention of bifocal lenses by Benjamin Franklin, which revolutionized the way people with presbyopia (difficulty seeing close objects as they age) could see. Now, instead of constantly switching between glasses for reading and distance, we can enjoy clear vision all day long. So let's raise our glasses – or should I say monocles? – to this incredible invention and celebrate the freedom it has given us from constantly adjusting our eyewear.
