Your day-to-day tasks change, so the glasses you need will vary. Below are five types of eyewear everyone needs!
Computer Eyewear
The average person spends about eight hours looking at their computer a day, and this often results in tired and strained eyes. Computer eyewear helps alleviate the eye strain that is associated with staring at a computer screen for extended periods. There are three options when it comes to this type of eyewear:
Single Vision Computer Eyewear: used to reduce blurred vision and help alleviate eye strain and poor posture
Occupational Progressive Lenses: a multifocal lens that corrects near, intermediate, and distance vision
Occupational Bifocal Lenses: higher zone and improved vision for intermediate and near vision
Computer eyewear comes with many benefits, including clearer vision and a reduction in the need to strain your eyes and back.
Photochromic Lenses
It’s essential to protect your eyes outside, but it can be inconvenient to switch between eyeglasses and sunglasses. With photochromic lenses, you can protect your eyes without having to switch between frames. They are clear while you are inside but darken when exposed to ultraviolet light. Even on an overcast day, your photochromic lenses will protect your eyes from the sun’s UV rays.
Polarized Eyewear
With polarized lenses, you can prevent the glare from sunlight reflecting off of surfaces and into your eyes. These lenses can be helpful in many situations which boating, fishing, going to the beach, and even driving.
Safety Glasses
It might be worth looking into glasses strictly meant for protecting your eyes. This eyewear–often in the form of safety glasses, sports goggles, or shooting glasses–is durable and useful for protecting your eyes and providing more coverage than typical lenses.
Fashion Eyewear
Depending on the look you are going for, you may find it necessary to have a pair of glasses complementing the look. A night out on the town is going to require a more stylish frame than what you need for work. Having different styles of glasses can help remove the dilemma of having a pair that doesn’t match the occasion by giving you situation-specific options.
