Whats the difference between computer glasses and reading glasses?

[Mohamed]

Can anybody tell me what's the difference with the computer glasses and reading glasses?

Computer glasses and reading glasses have different focusing zone. Computer screens usually are positioned 20 to 26 inches from the user's eyes. This is considered the intermediate zone of vision closer than driving (""distance"") vision, but farther away than reading (""near"") vision. Reading glasses are prescribed to correct near vision only. They can also be made with the same pair--bifocals with the upper part to see computer and the lower part to see near.

I think some are just more "anti-reflective" and geared for a different distance than for when you're reading a book.
