How to wear glasses for myopia and presbyopia

There used to be a saying that if you develop myopia, you will not develop presbyopia. In fact, these two conditions can exist at the same time. These two conditions are very likely to occur when people get older, and the best solution is to wear glasses. The occurrence of these two conditions together is different from that of a single condition, so it will be difficult for people to wear glasses. So, how do you wear glasses if you have myopia and presbyopia? Let’s take a look below.

Since everyone's vision is different, it is important to have an eye test and get glasses, and not share a pair of glasses with others. Some myopic people also have astigmatism, so if they have an eye test, the glasses they are fitted with will be more in line with their needs. However, if you share someone else's reading glasses, when your degree is lower than the glasses', wearing reading glasses with a higher degree will cause your eyesight to deteriorate faster. Therefore, for people who are nearsighted and have presbyopia, they must go for an eye test before getting glasses, and do not wear other people's reading glasses easily.

If you often need to use your eyes at different distances, you can wear progressive multifocal reading glasses, which can help you see near, middle and far distances. A pair of glasses can clearly see objects at different distances, which is very convenient for many people who often use their eyes. Moreover, wearing reading glasses can better correct vision and reduce eye fatigue.

If some myopic aging people are not suitable for wearing progressive multifocal reading glasses, they can wear two pairs of glasses, one pair of myopia glasses and one pair of reading glasses, which can easily solve the problems of close and long-distance eye use. But the premise is that no matter whether it is myopia glasses or presbyopia glasses, you must go to a professional eyewear store to buy them, and don’t just buy them at street stalls, otherwise the inferior glasses will cause great harm to your eyes.

Some people are still in a relatively young stage and their presbyopia is very mild. If the degree of myopia is not very high, less than 150 degrees, they can participate in visual potential development training to improve their vision and they do not need to wear glasses to see near or far. However, if the job you are engaged in requires high vision, it is still recommended to wear reading glasses.
