I bought computer glasses for studying for the CPA exams. I never needed these glasses before!
My computer glasses are focused at 20 inches. They are great. Is anyone else using computer (CPA) glasses?

i wear either contacts or glasses all the time so whether i am reading, looking at the computer, etc. i always am wearing one or the other. i prefer to wear contacts to the exam because sometimes you get smudges or marks on your glasses and you aren't allowed to bring anything into the testing center, which means i would have to clean my glasses with my shirt! no thanks.

That distance was 20 inches for me. I had the optometrist make an extra pair of glasses. My computer screen is now always in focus!
I wear my bifocals when I go into the CPA exam and I carry my computer glasses in my hand. I plan to continue using these computer glasses after I become a CPA. These glasses always stay by my computer.
Sometimes I forget that I have my computer glasses on. When I get up from my computer everything is out-or-focus!

I have two sets of glasses.
One set is the ones I drive in, watch tv in, wear becase I have crappy vision.
Second set has a weaker script so that I can look at small font everyday. I am on excel 8 hours a day. My vision used to get blury and give me headaches, the weaker script allows my eyes to focus on the computer screen.
Note: I get headaches if I use my computer glasses to drive since the weaker script.

It all changed when I started studying intensely for the CPA exam. I now wear glasses for working on the computer and for reading. They have anti-glare which is supposed to help with the computer screen and I'm also desperately in need of extra strength drops for severe dry eyes.... who would've thought?
