  • "I discovered 'interview' lenses by Essilor about 12 years ago. They are perfect for looking at a large monitor if you need prescription lenses. They are somewhat progressive, with a depth of field from about 10-12'' to about 3-4'. Beyond 6' things start to blur for me. But I can see everything clearly and in focus with them while looking at a 24'' monitor and MBP15 side-by-side. No head movement required. No more pain in the neck or squinting. I can't imagine using a computer without them." MacInTouch 1:50 PM
