As a piano player, I found that the computer glasses were the perfect prescription for being able to read sheet music, since while sitting at the piano the sheet music will be about the same distance as a computer screen. I was getting to the point where the sheet music was just a blur, but using my computer glasses for this solved the problem.

After watching this video I ordered some glasses with your link on amazon. Thanks for the info!

[doctorsmith]

I love yellow tinted glasses for dawn and dusk and low light situations

[dbbreaking]

Thks I bought a pair of Glasses and Eye Drops from your links.

Hey doc it would be so nice of you to make a new video bout best monthly contact lenses comparing different brands and share your thoughts and tell us which is the best and also the most value for money option for us in the market in 2024 🧡🧡🧡

All of my Rx glasses have had blue light coating I also have a Rx pair of office glasses (more than computer there's 22in. & bit closer for looking down on desk) My glasses are transitional multifocal.

Hey Doc, So, it turns out I don’t have diabetic retinopathy. I went to a retina care specialist today and My retinas look great!
I have cataracts! The last thing I would have thought of! But now I’m seeing there’s a connections between diabetes and cataracts, which I had not learned prior to today. It seems it’s mostly the right eye which has a prescription of 10+ which is so thick. I feel like my eyes are crossing and apparently there’s one on the left eye, but it’s must not as bad because that vision hasn’t changed all the drastically. ….. and after all that worry I didn’t even need an eye speculum…..😉 (Thank God!)

[Lupaland]

I don't get it. Are computer glasses only for people that need glasses or for everyone?

[DeirdreLennon-vkhc]

I was told cumpter are a phone might cause seizures. Do cumpter glasses help stop seizures?

[piotrpp]

i wish blue light glasses was just a placebo... but it's not. i don't have have any vision problems but need to wear clear bluelight glasses when looking at monitor. otherwise my eyes and head starts to hurt quickly. it is extremely evident and been the case for the last 10+ years of my life so i am really surprised a "dr eyeguy" could suggest it is a placebo...

[auntydoll]

I make pair of glasses for a living. I need more information about countoure prism ? Neurolens ?

[jtrueba]

So if you have 20/20 vision, magnification glasses are still beneficial? I was always under the assumption that prescription/magnification in lenses damages good/proper vision.

[Bluzin]

You left out Office Glasses. Some people use the term Office / Computer glasses interchangeably but they are not the same. Office glasses are a type of progressive that you could read a computer with and a few feet beyond maybe 10 -15 feet or so. You can see coworkers faces or to the next cubical clearly for example. But not farther, so you cant drive a car with them.

Hey Dock
What about if i have non stop headache/migraine from the OLED Screen Phones and tablet? Does the Computer glass or Blue light Filter glass could be helpful?
Do you have any recommendation to me ?
Thank you :)

[jamesn]

I’ve been using “reading glasses” for my tablet. I don’t need them to focus, but I find them much more relaxing to use. I’m using 1.75 now. Would it hurt me to max out on the magnification to take it a step further? Like would wearing 2.5+ cause any issues if I don’t necessarily need them?

[PocketsandOutlaw]

I'm too worried about becoming reliant on the computer glasses and/or having my vision being altered by them so I think I'll stick with the blue light glasses.

[Dogg]

Is it true wearing glasses make your eye sight worse? Or is that a myth?

[foxcom]

Sir, please recommend clip on for computer glasses/blue-light glasses, I use computer lot of time and I have to wear progressive lens.

[danielsuarez]

What about Colloidal Silver for Blepharitis

[Wggamingyt]
