Contact lenses trouble focusing on computer screen, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Age related: You may be starting to enter the focusing of middle age termed presbyopia in which things intermediate and near start to become less clear. It is possible the contacts you are wearing are overcorrected which will accelerate this issue. Have your lens power checked and you can also discuss with the ophthalmologist a thing called monovision which can help.

Why have I been having trouble focusing my eyes on the computer screen?
Is it true that computer screens "trick" your eyes into focusing on the wrong distance ? I.E. Image is 1 ft away, but eyes focus 2ft away ?
I have been having a hard time lately when I am working on a computer and I need to look up from my screen to a screen at a distance (like a projector) that my eyes are not adjusting focus quickly. Is this eye exhaustion?
Why is it hard to look at a computer screen with contact lens on?
I wear contacts that are -1.25 because I have trouble seeing faces/things clearly when they are 10+ feet away. But, 3/4 of my workday is working on a computer screen that is close up. Am I making my eyes worse by wearing my contacts all day?
