  • Computer glasses and reading glasses have different focusing zone. Computer screens usually are positioned 20 to 26 inches from the user's eyes.

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.
