Costa has several models that come in a 1.5 , 2.0 and 2.5 magnification in them . If you go to the website they are listed under “C-Mates”

I really like my Maui Jim bifocal. I need them to read / tie knots when I where my contact lens. They also make reader version too. I just carry set of cheap Walmart readers in the boat too if it's too dark for sunglasses. I wouldn't want to wear readers while I am fishing just when rigging baits.

I've got an HSA account from work and I used it to buy some Wiley X tri-focals. As far as fishing and being able to see knots and fish in shallow water it one the best things I've ever done. Next year I'm going back to my optometrist and get another pair with different lense for cloudy situations. If you have that option available it would probably be worth looking in to........

I got a pair of Smith 2.0 polarized bifocal glasses I’ll make you a deal on. Great lens and optics.

I have a great couple of pairs of Amphibia Sunglasses with built in readers and they are awesome. Problem is that they quit providing them so I went on a hunt to find someone who will make the lenses to fit the frames.
Finally found a local company who can produce them and if it wasn't for the fact that I like the Amphibia frames better than any others I have used over the years I wouldn't spend the extra $200.00 to have the lenses made. They were so inexpensive and work great so hopefully when I really need to change them out I will see how they work. Luckily I am on year 3 of one of the pair and year 2 of the other and they have held up better than any other sunglasses I have used and this is wearing them every day.

I've got a pair of Maui Jim's with a 3x bifocal. I love them. Not sure where you can actually get a pair of readers that are polarized. I 'think' that an optical shop can polarize your lenses when they make them but not sure of the cost.

You can get your daily wear glasses polarized. I chose to get mine in transition and will buy a pair of Costas in my prescription.
