Are Computer Glasses a Solution For Eye Strain?

computer glasses: a solution to eye strain

Do you find that your vision is blurry when working at your desk? Is it distracting you from your work? If so, it may be time to consider trying a pair of computer vision correction lenses.

Computer lenses are great for people who have visual impairments at intermediate distances and want to achieve a sharper focus and enhanced visual clarity. Most prescriptions correct nearsighted and farsighted eye conditions, but these special lenses are best at sharpening your vision at an intermediate distance of around 20-26 inches. This is the perfect distance for desk work, which makes these lenses great for enhancing your vision when using your computer and other devices at arms-length.


The 20-20-20 Rule


If you find yourself having eye-strain when looking at computer screens for extended periods of time, the 20-20-20 rule is an easy and effective way to sooth your eyes. What is the 20-20-20 rule you may ask?

1) 20 minutes
Every 20 minutes, give your eyes a break and try these exercises...
2) 20 seconds
Look away from your screen for a good 20 seconds. Blink a few times and close your eyes for a few seconds to moisten and refresh your eyes.
3) 20 feet away
Get up, move around and look at something that is 20 feet away. This will allow your eyes to refocus on objects that are far away, instead of straining your eyes to constantly focus on things that are close to you.
