I have to work on the computer all day and feel eye strain often.What kind of glasses should I get?

Computer glasses are special glasses prescribed to lessen the symptoms associated with computer vision syndrome (CVS). CVS describes a group of symptoms caused by prolonged computer use. Symptoms appear because the eyes and brain react differently to words on a computer screen than they do to printed text. Symptoms often include eyestrain, dry eyes, headaches and blurred vision. Many people try to compensate for these vision problems by leaning forward or by looking down to see through the bottom portion of their glasses, often resulting in back and shoulder pain.

Anti-glare computer glasses are specifically designed to reduce eye strain while working at a screen, helping to improve focus and get rid of associated problems.The anti reflective coating of computer glasses eliminates the reflection of light from both the front and back of the lenses, which means the eyes do not have to work so hard and focusing becomes easier.The anti-glare coating on computer glasses will also reduce problems caused by harsh office lighting and boost contrast,which is often lacking on computer screens and is another factor that causes eye strain as they struggle to focus accurately.By reducing eye strain computer glasses can, in turn, help to improve posture, which will further aid people who have difficulty focusing while at their desk.
