About a year ago I went to SpecSavers for the first time. They prescribed some varifocals, first time I've had those too.
Apart from the fact that they never got the fit right (the damn things are forever falling off, esp. when I'm eating a meal they slide off), I find when I look at a screen I have to look up so I see the screen through the 'close up' bottom part of the lens.
So at the moment I'm using my old specs for close up screen work and reading, and the varifocals for everyday stuff such as driving, walking(!) and so on.
I think I'm going to go back to a proper optician/optometrist and get this sorted out. I'm sure the new specs have made my eyes worse too
Where do you folks (the few who don't have 20:20 vision ) get your specs? Do you use varis for screen work?
Unfortunately my eyes are so fecked up I can't have the laser thingy.
EDIT: Indeed my avatar shows me looking up. See, I told you
