About Computer Glasses.

When you work at a computer for a lengthy period of time, it's common to experience digital eye strain (DES), blurred vision, red eyes and other symptoms.

Digital eye strain is related to the overuse of computer screens and digital devices. Digital devices are back lit and emit blue-violet light that our eyes are not made to be over exposed to. Over exposure to this blue light can cause discomfort and long term effects to our eyes.

Computer glasses help to optimise your eyesight when viewing your computer screen, reduce digital eye strain and it’s symptoms.

South Melbourne Optical  “Computer glasses" or "computer eyeglasses" are different to conventional reading and multifocal glasses. They have single vision lenses with a modified lens power prescribed to give the best and most comfortable vision for the wearer when working at a computer screen.

Generally speaking, we discourage bifocal and trifocal lenses for computer glasses. Experience tells us that in most cases when someone is at their computer, they are working for an extended period. Wearer’s who fall in this category overwhelmingly prefer maximum vision without compromise. However, there are exceptions, and to that we’ll work hard to customise the manufacture of lenses for your computer use and other requirements.

To ensure maximum viewing comfort, we prescribe computer glasses with clear lenses that have an anti-reflective coating to reduce reflections of light from the front and back surfaces of your lens. These lenses also prevent long-term damage to eyes by selectively filtering harmful UV and blue light.
