Guest guest Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 The reading lens is at the bottom, so you have to tilt your head up to focus on the computer screen. Not worth it. That can also be a problem with reading pricing details on store shelves.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 For this problem I have moved my monitor farthe back. This of course can only be done as space permits. I have progressive lenses and don't like them. I can't change glasses so will go back to bifocals with the lines. > > >> > > >> I'm about to get my first pair of bifocals (perhaps) and am wondering if > > >> anyone here can offer any advice.
