As a licensed optometrist, I recommend that you start wearing reading glasses as soon as you notice difficulty seeing nearby objects clearly, such as books, newspapers, computer screens, cell phones, etc. Signs of these difficulties may include headaches, eye strain, blurred vision, pain or tension around the eyes, trouble focusing on nearby objects, the feeling that your arms are too short to read, and difficulty reading for long periods of time.

If you are 40 or older, you may begin to experience presbyopia, a vision condition (caused by the aging of the eye’s lens) that makes it more difficult to focus on nearby objects. In this age group, reading glasses are often necessary. To determine your specific needs and the appropriate correction, it is essential to consult an optometrist or an ophthalmologist. A comprehensive eye exam performed by these professionals will help determine whether you need reading glasses and what correction would be best for you.
