Do I need glasses to work at a computer? if so, what type?

Several symptoms may occur when working on computer: headache, pain in the neck, shoulder or back pain, burning and itchy eyes, blurred vision: we are experiencing eye strain when working on computer. Eyeglasses are a solution to these problems.

There are different types of glasses, some people have never had vision problems (such as students, for example) but need glasses to avoid the eye strain. The eyes get tired because we spend more time in front of a computer: these needs are due to a problem lighting, remote eye / computer, blinking of the eyes (we blink much less of screen time). Therefore eyeglasses with a correction adapted to the needs and the distance of the eye / computer. You have a single vision glasses that allow a good view on screen, but that should be removed as soon as one wants to look away. You have the glasses two visions, which are very convenient for people working a lot on screen and near vision for papers. In this case, you will find the intermediate vision (for computer) at the top of the glass and near vision (for paper) at the bottom of the glass, but her glasses for distance vision, the vision will be blurred. Otherwise you have the glasses 3 vision, progressive lenses that allow for the three visions (far, intermediate, almost) but beware the field of view is smaller it is not the full width of the glass (gray area on the side).

The glasses on the computer must be tailored to your needs, depending on the time spent on computer, the position of this (the distance), lighting and your business (if it requires other visions).
