Reading glasses
We want you to enjoy your new reading glasses, so we are ready to offer the glasses that can best meet your needs. Finding out what your needs are requires care and communication between the client and the eye care professional.
“Suddenly I noticed that the food on my plate looked unaesthetic. Even though I’ve always had a clear view of everything…”
“To read the text I have to stretch out my arms…”
“In the past, everything used to be printed in bigger letters on the labels. Now all the descriptions are smaller…”
“This and similar feedback is shared by our customers during their vision screening,” says Algita Vaičiulienė, an optometrist who specialises in optical goods. She notes that some people are happy that reading glasses are enough for better vision, while others are sad that they will have to start wearing additional glasses.
When choosing your first pair of reading glasses, it is important to assess the person’s attitude towards wearing glasses and to explain the principles of
in a clear way. Therefore, do not rush to seek help from those who sell ready-made reading glasses, because without a vision
check and accurate information about your visual status, you may end up buying the wrong glasses for you, which in the future will make it more difficult to choose the right
glasses for a comfortable vision.
Do you have a good view of things up close?
The ability to see objects clearly in close proximity declines from the age of 45. Ignoring the vision impairment can lead to headaches, fatigue, sleep disturbances, mood swings and even signs of chronic conjunctivitis. Therefore, for an initial assessment, we invite you to take a presbyopia test. Presbyopia is a condition in which the ability to see objects at a distance of 30 – 40 cm is lost due to age.
For a full examination, please register for an appointment with an eye care professional.
Which reading glasses are best for you?
Good reading glasses provide clear and crisp vision at short distances. It is often overlooked that with glasses you need clear vision not only at a distance of 30 – 40 cm, but also at distances of 90 cm and sometimes even 2 m. Some people want to wear reading glasses all the time, even though their distance vision is good, while others want to use reading glasses only when necessary.
1. Traditional reading glasses.
Seeing at 40 cm.
It’s a must-have item on
your bedside table, in the bathroom,
in the kitchen, in the car or in the garden.
These glasses are a must
for anyone who needs
reading glasses. With them, you can always read a book in comfort, handle household tasks that require clear vision at a distance of 30 to 40 cm.
2. Modern reading glasses.
Seeing at 40-90 cm.
An indispensable item on your
desk or in your
work environment.
They are probably the most comfortable glasses
for sedentary workers and for long
periods of close and extended arm’s length viewing.
Looking at a monitor for long periods of time with glasses designed for viewing at a distance of 40 cm can cause eye strain, headaches and tension in the temples. This is because the strength of the glasses differs for proximity and for a distance of 90 cm.
3. Progressive glasses.
Seeing at all distances.
Definitely worth buying for those who
need correction for distance, intermediate
distance and reading.
Universal glasses that can
be worn from morning to night.
They allow you to drive, watch
TV, read and work
on your computer. These lenses will have all the correction you need for a wide range of viewing distances, so a little patience and time will be needed to get used to them. But for a large proportion of spectacle wearers, these spectacle lenses become an integral part of good vision.
