| Reading glasses will help to refract the light more effectively to compensate for your loss of near vision, making reading at normal range and other close viewing tasks clearer and more comfortable.
Alternatively, you can wear progressive lenses or bifocal spectacles, which combine your presbyopia prescription lens with a plano (or clear) lens to help you view both close and far distances without having to take your reading glasses on and off.
However, if you already wear glasses or contact lenses for another optical condition your optometrist will prescribe bifocal or progressive lenses. Or, you have the option of two separate pairs of glasses, one for near vision and one to correct your existing optical error. |
