I have been using photochromic lenses while working on my pc. Lately I changed my frame with which I have developed some allergy although they are supposed to be Ray Ban. I am now using ordinary lenses which I use for reading. Wonder whether photochromic lenses are essential while working on computers. What is your opinion?

This is a very interesting question. Despite the lighting of a computer screen I would have thought photochromic lenses to be inappropriate. After all, we would not wear them to watch television.

I think one would be wise to use it even while watching television.

@allknowing I have been watching television for around 60 years now, so it seems a little late to concern myself about it.

@Asylum There is so much we learn in our life. For example I just learnt that coconut oil is after all not bad for health. I might go for it now at this old age!!

I was hoping to hear me tell me that they are good and that is why you are using them

Looking at something bright is a strain on the eyes.

I've never used those you mention, I just use my ordinary reading glasses.

Those lenses remove the glare of the monitor which is considered good for the eyes. I changed my frame which is bothering me.

I have a separate pair of glasses for my computer work, but never thought about making them photochromic.
