Why Your Eyes Still Hurt at the Screen

Why Your Eyes Still Hurt at the Screen

  • Distance lenses focus at infinity - great for the road, rough for 26".

  • Computer glasses reduce the lens power to match your screen distance.

  • Your ideal TaskAdd™ varies by age, set-up & preference - up to ±0.50D.

We let you test that range at home - before spending on finished eyewear.

The TaskAdd™ Trial Kit

The TaskAdd™ Trial Kit

  1. Baseline - Distance Rx + standard TaskAdd™ for 26"

  2. -0.25D TaskAdd™ for more control

  3. +0.25D TaskAdd™ for more comfort

  4. +0.50D TaskAdd™ for even more comfort.

Four lightweight frames, laser etched 1-4, with your astigmatism correction.

For those that don't speak glasses, Diopters (D) measure overall lens power. It's the first number in your Rx.

How it works

  1. Design your kit
    Upload your distance Rx and we build your kit.


  2. Test each pair at your desk
    Try each frame during real work sessions to find the TaskAdd™ that feels best.

  3. Get the perfect computer Rx
    Pick your winner → an optometrist reviews the data and signs your new computer Rx.

  4. Get new glasses
    Return the kit in a prepaid mailer. Use your new Rx to get new glasses made anywhere you'd like.

CTO, Spruce Health

After finding my ideal lens power for my setup, I finally stopped feeling the nagging urge to take my glasses off. My new pair just feels right.

Jason Bornhorst

Founder, Subtle Optics

I've always wanted the ability to try subtle tweaks to my computer prescription at home before committing to expensive glasses. So we built it.

David Bradley

CEO, Nextime.ai

I always suspected my computer prescription could be better. Having a few trial frames at home felt like trying on shoe sizes until one fit just right.
