Uncle Jesse and crazy4oldcars,
I agree on the progressive lenses. Had 'em for years now.
If you spend a lot of time at the computer, though, you'll get a stiff neck from tilting your head back. I finally got a pair of glasses where the whole lense is set for the focal length I need when sitting at the computer. They're not quite right for anything else, but for computer work they can't be beat.
For that matter, if you're the kind of fly tyer that has thousands of dollars in materials and multiple hundreds in several vises, it might be worth getting a pair of glasses with a focal length and magnification that is just right for your tying. Just consider them part of your tying equipment.
Eye Doctor here.
I would seriously consider an eye exam. If you can't see a computer well, then you better start with YOU first.
I'd recommend trifocals or progressive bifocals also.
Side note: Progressive lenses are NOT trifocals!!
I want you to know that I see just fine. It is that damn computer. ;) My eye doctor once asked me to tell him how I view my vision. I said that I see fine. He said that many people with my same vision would consider themselves impaired and need glasses and bifocals at that. It took me a couple more years before I started wearing those old man glasses, with no lines of course. It's hell getting old.

I go every year, a little over due at the moment. The problem with tilting your head back is called bad ergonomics. Get your monitor down as low as you can, if it's sitting on the CPU take it off and put it on the desk top, if you use it a lot consider a below desk top mount (this requires a hole in the desk top, before some wise acorn makes a comment.)
By the way, in case I don't get on here tomorrow: I hope all of you guys who like white Christmas's have one and those of us who like Christmas a little warm have that. I hope you have a great time with your family and friends and remember the true meaning of the Holiday. I hope your wife likes whatever you got her (I don't buy anything that can't be returned). For you young guys if it has a power cord it's probably not a good gift idea for her and if it's lingerie, you really bought it for yourself.
You seem like the part of my family I have never met in person.
MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!
Thanks Uncle Jessie, and Merry Christmas to you and yours. ( and thanks for the advice lol lol )
