Hello Dr,

My work involves spending long hours,up to 8 hours a day behind a computer. I have been working for the past year but recently I have been experiencing headaches and eye pain. After visiting my local doctor I was advised to get eye lens.

Kindly assist with the best lens for my condition. And any information related to my condition.

Thanks

Thanks for your Question

You have what is called computer eye strain. I prefer to use computer glasses over contact lenses. You can read this article about the requirements of computer glasses to reduce eye strain and headache.
