These days, our eyes are worked more and more - computers, lap-tops, tablets and smartphones have all increased the amount of near work we expect our eyes to perform. Many people find that these tasks can cause the eyes to feel sore, achey or uncomfortable, and that the vision may feel a little blurry. This can lead to general fatigue and tiredness, headaches - even migraines and double vision; it can even be associated with dyslexia. This is Visual Stress.
Sometimes Visual Stress can be alleviated by eye exercises (Orthoptics), prescription glasses or even just by following the "20-20-20" Rule - every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. However, very often we find that certain patients need a little more help than these simple measures, and a different solution is necessary.
Vista Mesh lenses have a light brown contrast filter, together with an optical mesh filter, full UV protection and an Easyclean reflection-free coating. They align scattered light reflections, dampen flicker, sharpen contrast and reduce eye strain. They are very effective in reducing the symptoms of visual stress, but can also improve general visual comfort especially for people who work on computers, drive at night, work in an office environment or spend a lot of time on tablets or smartphones.
