I’ve been wearing progressive lenses in my eyeglasses for about three years now. Generally I love them. They’re comfortable, and allow me to see near and far without a stupid line in the middle of the frame like bifocals, or having to rely on reading glasses when I wear contacts (I’ve tried multifocal contacts, they just don’t work for my special eyes.)
But I spend most of my time in front of a computer, and they aren’t quite good enough for that. The area for reading is very small, so I find myself tilting my head back at an awkward angle to get the clearest view of my screen.
There must be some special lens just for computer use, that has the magnifier in the center as well as the bottom, but I imagine I’d need a second pair when I need distance correction. As it is now I’ve learned to tilt my head forward while driving to get the clearest view for distance.
All this head tilting can’t be good for me.
