Just going to jump in here to say that I stopped wearing my glasses at the computer. It's hard enough for me to even get glasses (last time I gave the optometrist a headache LOL). I was told that I have a muscular degeneration in one eye that is usually caught as a child & I would need to see a child's specialist. But that's frankly not going to happen. Then again I was also told my eye would get worse & begin wandering within a year & it's been 3. (i've always been a bit cross-eyed when reading, but over the last several years they cross when I'm tired, usually not noticeably but on occasion hubby will notice).
I've also had a few tell me I'm most likely better off without them as my right eye is so bad, close, distance, it doesn't matter I can't see clearly out of it & haven't for over 12 years. They've told me the other eye does all the work I trying to retrain them will increase my headache severity & frequency. However, I'm generally good after just a couple days.
Anyhoo, I stopped wearing them because they gave me bi-focals. I don't mind that but I found that I got severe headaches wearing them at the computer. I'm a "shifter" I sit up, I peer in, I slouch back, I lean forward LOL. I never knew where in my glasses I was supposed to look.
So I've decided to go back for a new exam (considering Gabriel also rand the office chair over my galsses...), ask which lense I should use for an arms length (I am generally an arms length away, except the occasional forward lean). Then I want that as a solid lens. I've decide to see if I can get them in cats eye shape & have special spiffy computer nerd glasses LMAO.
That said, I didn't know that I could get a coating for the computer. I have had anti-glare & I've had the ones that darken (though never dark enough for me, I'm very light sensitive). So I'm assuming that the coating for a computer is different than anti-glare or the UV coating?
