Can i use my long distance glasses while im on the computer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Computer distances are typically too close for distance prescriptions and too far away for readers. However if you can see the computer screen with your distance glasses and do not experience fatigue or headaches, you are fine to use them..
