COMPUTER GLASSES
We spend more time each day staring at our computers, watching TV and tinkering on our smartphones and tablets. All that screen time can add up to a lot of eye strain.
What are computer glasses?
Computer glasses have specially coated lenses designed to relax your eyes while using a computer. These lenses are designed to help prevent digital eye strain, headaches, dry eyes, blurred vision and other symptoms of computer vision syndrome.
Computer glasses should improve your intermediate vision, which is the area around 20-25 inches in front of your face and the optimal distance to stay from your screen.
Not sure if your monitor is far enough from your eyes? If your screen is about an arm’s length away, it’s the perfect distance from your eyes.
FEELING DIGITAL EYE STRAIN? Call and schedule an appointment.
