I am in the market for a new mask and the last one I bought I really didn't like the position of the bifocal it was small and down the corners of the mask half moon shape

I've got a Caribbean soul I can barely control and some Texas hidden here in my heart. JB
I have 2 of them (old pres plus new) I have been very happy with the service they provide. Both of mine are bifocal and the bifocals were custom located per my request. I like them higher than normal for camera use. They do sell a gauge reader version that locates the bifocals in the lower areas of the mask but mine are basically standard glasses lens installed in the mask.
Somewhere in the $150 to 250 range depending on your prescription and if you want/need bifocals. That assumes you send them your mask, something I highly recommend unless one of the ones they sell is exactly what you already own. Find a mask that fits and send it to them, then you are sure it will work for you. The cost is kinda high but you get a mask custom made for you and IMO well worth the cost if you need anything more than gauge readers. The mask I had on the other day had a set of lenses from PDM (link above). At my request, the bifocals are set higher in the lens and are about 1/2 a diopter higher than my prescription, makes reading that tiny print on my camera lens a lot easier to read.
I too have two masks from them. $200 or so with bifocal. I did send them both masks and they worked out great. Nice people and fast service. Too bad one of them is under the water somewhere near Shaws Cove!
I bought my son's prescription mask from them. We're just 20 mi away, and he wanted a specific mask, so I bought the mask at the LDS, took it to them and picked it up a few days later.
We've been very happy with it. I only know a few people (maybe 4 or 5) here in SD that have prescription masks, and they all went through these folks and were satisfied enough that they recommended them to us.
