The three distances of a modern day
- Phone and print: roughly 30–40 cm
- Laptop or monitor: roughly 50–70 cm
- A room, a colleague, a television: several metres
Why one power cannot cover them
Magnification chosen for a phone puts a monitor out of focus and makes a room look distorted. That is why so many desks have two pairs of readers on them, and why people push glasses up onto their forehead a dozen times an hour.
How a graduated lens handles it
Power varies down the lens: reading strength at the bottom, intermediate through the middle, near-neutral at the top. You change zone by tilting your head a few degrees. Full explanation on the lens page.
The limits
The top zone is near-neutral, which means comfortable for conversation distance — not corrective for distance vision, and never for driving. If you are short-sighted, you need a prescription lens; see the comparison.
What to expect
A few days of learning where the zones are, then it becomes invisible. Most people notice the change when they realise they have stopped reaching for a second pair. Setup advice for screen-heavy days is on the computer work page.
