Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between reading glasses and varifocals?▾
Reading glasses are specifically optimised for the near range and have a uniform diopter strength across the entire lens. Varifocals, on the other hand, offer multiple vision zones for near, medium and far distances in one lens. Reading glasses are ideal if you only need a visual aid for the near range.
What diopter strength do I need for my reading glasses?▾
The right diopter strength depends on your individual vision and the desired reading distance. Common strengths range between +1.0 and +3.5 diopters. An eye test at an optician or ophthalmologist will give you certainty about the exact strength you need.
Are reading glasses available with a blue light filter?▾
Yes, many modern reading glasses are available with an integrated blue light filter. This reduces the amount of blue light emitted by screens, smartphones and LED lighting, and can thus help relieve the eyes during prolonged screen work.
Can I also use reading glasses as computer glasses?▾
Basically yes, although the working distance at the screen is often somewhat greater than when reading a book. Reading glasses with a blue light filter can provide additional comfort here. For intensive screen work, however, individually adapted computer glasses may be the better choice.
Which frame shapes suit which face shape?▾
Round faces benefit from angular or rectangular frames that add structure. Angular faces harmonise well with round or oval eyewear frames. Oval face shapes are flexible and suit most frame styles. For heart-shaped faces, models with a slight emphasis on the lower part are suitable.
Are all reading glasses equipped with standard lenses?▾
Ready-made reading glasses are usually equipped with standard lenses in fixed diopter strengths. They are excellently suited if both eyes have a similar visual acuity. In cases of significantly different values or astigmatism, individually made glasses from an optician are recommended.
How do I properly care for and clean my reading glasses?▾
For cleaning, use a soft microfibre cloth and, if necessary, some lukewarm water with a drop of mild washing-up liquid. Avoid paper towels or clothing, as these can leave fine scratches on the lenses. Always store the glasses in a case when not in use to protect them from impacts and dirt.
Can I buy reading glasses online and what should I consider?▾
Yes, reading glasses can easily be bought online. Pay attention to the correct diopter strength, the frame size and the material quality. Many providers offer size guides and virtual try-ons. Also check the return conditions in case the glasses do not fit optimally.
