mm -- My optics are similar to yours.

I fly with a single prescription. To read the map, I hold it high and look over my glasses, but I do not advocate this as an optimal approach.

Instead of bifocals, you may want to consider glasses with the lower part cut out.

An illuminated magnifier can be very handy for reading a VFR chart at night.
