Yeah, my eye doctor recommended computer lenses with a different prescription to reduce potential eye strain, although I haven’t experienced it yet (and hopefully never will!).

I feel the question, “how many hours a day are you in front of a computer?” Is a little too specific. My time at a “computer” is going down while my time spent on mobile devices is going up. Cell phones, tablet comptuers (like the iPad), even my TV is the same basic computer screen. I bet if the question, “how many hours are you in front of an LCD monitor, like cell phones and computer devices?” The numbers would be a lot higher.

I’m wearing contact lenses to improve my vision. I started noticing my blurred vision when I experienced frequent headaches. My optician said it was caused by sitting for long hours near the television and by frequent use of the computer. He suggested that for further examination, I should see an optometrist in Indianapolis. Just a few hours’ drive to Franklin, I visited the clinic and my eyes were examined. I was recommended to have customized contact lenses fitting for my poor eyesight.
