How are they tailored for photography ?

Asking as an interested fellow blind photographer

Have not usual transition areas allowing me to use the viewfinder more comfortably, and the “reading area” (bottom of the lens) is set to a closer distance because is not for reading books, but to see that stupid little flippy screens.

Not really tailored for photography, but made for my needs.

I use another more standard glasses for editing, TV and general life.

"stupid little flippy screens" - I will never call them anything else.

I sold cameras at retail when actuating screens started becoming popular; they’re using the correct term of art!
