Reading Glasses

Reading Glasses  

Focused comfort for close-up tasks—designed to reduce strain and sharpen detail.

What Are Reading Glasses?  

Reading glasses are designed to improve near vision, making it easier to focus on close-up tasks like reading, writing, sewing, or using a smartphone. They’re commonly used by people experiencing presbyopia, a natural age-related condition that affects the eye’s ability to focus on nearby objects.

How They Work  

Reading glasses use convex lenses to magnify nearby objects, helping your eyes focus more easily. They’re available in both prescription and non-prescription formats, depending on your needs.

The lenses are typically optimized for a fixed focal range—usually 12 to 18 inches from your eyes—making them ideal for reading, desk work, and other detail-oriented activities.

Why You Might Need Reading Glasses

  • Difficulty reading fine print or small labels
  • Eye strain or headaches during close-up tasks
  • Holding books or devices farther away to see clearly
  • Trouble focusing on screens or paperwork
  • Increased fatigue during reading or writing
