Types of visions

Last night i got an email,


I want "computer glasses" slighty altered from reading prescription for distance to computer display (18-30 in.) vs normal reading (12-18 in.) can my optometrist make such a prescription?


Types of visions :

There are three types of vision


1st distance.


2nd reading.


3rd mid vision.


Distance vision:

Distance glasses unlike reading glasses tend to spend a lot more time on your face. That makes sense since regardless of how strong or weak your prescription is you still need to have them on most of the time. So that means you want to make sure you get a pair that are comfortable and lightweight. Having glasses on your face for that long should seem effortless. The weight of your glasses is very important and luckily today's glasses are so technologically advance you can find a lightweight pair of glasses no matter what your prescription is.

Reading vision:

Today there is a wide range of reading glasses to choose from. Some are even foldable to fit in small, handy, attractive cases. The frames available are interesting and flattering. You can get these in stainless steal, gold or silver rimmed or even in trendy plastic, in a variety of shapes and colors. If you are looking for something exclusive, choose handmade frames. Accessories like magnifiers to read really small print, or even in dim light are also available.

Mid vision:

Mid vision is use for computer glasses. If you want only single vision glasses for computer purpose only then send your complete prescription, I will let you know your mid vision prescription via reply.

Eyeglasses for computer use

It has been discovered, sitting in front of a computer screen not only makes you a pain in the neck and causes a creak in your backside, but it gives you eye problems as well.Even if you are currently wearing eyeglasses,you may want to purchase yourself a pair of computer glasses.

Computer glasses are specially made. In regular prescription glasses, including bifocals, you usually find help in seeing better at near ranges or far ranges.

If you spend long hours in front of a computer, you may want to get computer glasses, whether or not you have to wear corrective lenses. Computer Vision Syndrome can cause a multitude of symptoms, leading to loss of productivity. CVS can cause headaches, blurred vision, neck and shoulder pain, loss of focus, tired, burning eyes, and double vision.If you do not wear a eyeglasses, then you may want to get computer glasses anyway, as they also help with the glare from fluorescent lights.

The simplest pair of computer glasses you can order would be the single vision lenses. Their modified power helps keep the general user from some of the discomforts associated with CVS. For people with presbyopia, the occupation progressive lens, would probably work best. The transitions zone is much larger than your typical progressive lens and can even do some distant vision for you. They have improved computer vision near and far as well as the middle zone.

For some people it may be beneficial, even if not strictly necessary, for them to get an occupational bifocal. If you need reading glasses, this could be a good option. A portion of the lens is dedicated to close up work and the other portion to mid-distance work for working on the computer.
