Responding to another post reminded me. These days, I don't driving at night. At least commercially. I don't know how much of that is age and how much is the progressive trifocals. I’m sure it’s both. But something to consider.

I don't know if mine are bi or tri. The only problems I have is when it rains, my glasses get wet when I get out of the truck.

I've got this:

They come in black, camo, tortoise, et al . . . Amazon! (I'm kinda 'over' the flowers, but hey!! Works!)

I’ve never had any issues with my trifocals when it comes to driving. I guess I’m another one where I compensate subconsciously. I’ve been driving big rigs, motor coaches, and passenger buses for over 5 years with progressives. Thanks to Zoom, I have recently learned I sometimes tilt my head when on the computer. I guess something’s off with the way my glasses fit.

Myself (and the kiddos, pix in my gallery) have Ptosis . . . surgery 'was' an option, but we all politely declined. It's a droopy eyelid. Mine's on the left, daughter on the right .. and son on left as well.

Shows up in photos (unfortunately) but through MANY eye docs as they were growing up, there was no 'need' for medical intervention. We declined, thankfully. Said their eye could get 'stuck up' ... no thanks!

We 'ALL' TILT our head to the side of the 'droopy' eye . . . in pix, and in life. I caught myself doing this, reading just now, haha!

Then again, I've got my glasses on.... so .... what's so bad about a head tilt? My pibble is tilting his head at me, right now, haha!

Best wishes, man.
