Paul Graham, Owner and Principal Optometrist at Harmony Vision Care, walks you through how presbyopia can affect computer work and other everyday tasks at intermediate distances.
Paul shares his own experience of gradually becoming less efficient, avoiding some reading and experiencing headaches and sore eyes after computer use.
Because a computer screen usually sits further away than a book or phone, difficulty at this distance can be an easily overlooked sign that your focusing ability is changing.
✅ Why presbyopia can affect computer screens as well as books and phones

✅ Why computer work may contribute to headaches or sore eyes for some people with presbyopia
