Ask friends, brothers, and sisters who are short-sighted.
And must wear glasses, riding a car, full face helmet,
what brand of guardian glasses and what kind is good?
I would like a sample picture as well.
P.S. I used to wear contact lenses. But there is a problem so I have to wear glasses.
Thank you.

I am a late-thirties male, near-sighted.

I recently visited the optometrist for an exam and a new prescription for my glasses.

I only just found out about the concept of "best safety glasses". By "computer glasses", I mean those with a customized prescription, tailored to the wearer, for looking at things within the typical distance range of working at a desk. I do not mean glasses that are intended to filter out blue light.

This concept appeals to me because I am a software developer and work all day at my desk and have read a lot of small text. However, I am not sure if (or when) I should buy computer glasses. This is because, although I need a new prescription to see things more clearly, I don't experience headaches or eye strain that I am aware of. Also, I do not have trouble reading things that are very close to me (like books) without my glasses (no presbyopia issues).

So should I start by just getting one pair of glasses with my latest prescription and try to use those glasses for all of my tasks (looking at things far and close)? Should I wait and see if I have trouble with computer work with this single pair, and only then investigate "computer glasses" if I experience headaches/eye strain/unclear vision?

As a near-sighted person, would using my "regular prescription" (i.e. glasses for seeing far away) be "overkill" for desk work? i.e. would I be using "too much correction" for desk work and would this weaken my eyesight or weaken it more rapidly? Should I be using a "weaker" prescription for close work?

Any advice would be appreciated

My prescription is:

• OD [Sph: -3.00], [Add + 0.75]

• OS [Sph: -1.75], [Cyl -1.00], [Axe 168] [Add +0.75]
