I was thinking of Varilux

1.67   Panamic, Ellipse or Physio and not sure which would be best
with less distortion for my vision or can you recommend another.

Thank You for the help.... Linda

I have had progressives in 1.67 in both Panamic and Physio 360--and I
prefer the Physio---my current glasses. Frame shape and size makes a
difference---the "short" frames that are so popular sometimes don't
turn out all that well in a progressive (if the vertical dimension
isn't tall enough there's not much room for the +add).

Not sure what you mean by "doubling up" on your glasses....

I will wear my normal glasses then I put on my reading glasses on the
tip of my nose. My kids laugh at me when I do this!!!
