(ARA) – When you have to switch to large print books, or move the food label farther away from you to see how much sodium is in a can of soup, it might be time for you to invest in a pair of reading glasses. Reading glasses provide relief of symptoms caused by the onset of Presbyopia, the eye’s diminished ability to focus on nearby objects.
In addition to seeing better, reading glasses can also relieve eye fatigue, caused by concentrating and focusing on nearby objects for long periods of time or working in dim lighting.
With a pair of over-the-counter reading glasses you can quickly and easily focus on any crafts you might be working on, including books, the newspaper and recipe directions so you make sure that you only put in one teaspoon of salt, not one tablespoon.
Some people choose to see their eye doctor for a prescription for singular power glasses or bifocal lenses, but you also have the choice of shopping at a nearby retail store for over-the-counter options.
To help you quickly choose the right pair, use the eye chart available at the store where reading glasses are for sale to determine the magnification level you need. Diopter strength – usually ranging from .5 to +3.50 – is the rating used to rank how strong the magnification is. Knowing what magnification level you need prior to visiting the store allows you to spend less time in front of the display.
Over time, you may find it more convenient to have several pairs of reading glasses handy – for at home, on the go and at work.
