The lenses in reading glasses simply magnify small text or objects to bring them into better focus.
When trying to determine the lens strength in your readers (also called the lens power, or the diopter), consider your typical reading distance. If you need readers for working on your computer, think about the distance between your face and the screen. A distance of 15 to 20 inches may call for a different power than a distance of 25 to 30 inches. But maybe you need magnification only for reading newspapers or magazines, which you typically hold fairly close to your face. And it may sound funny, but taller people with longer arms may need less powerful lenses since they can hold things farther from their faces.
A simple way to find the correct power for your reading glasses is to try on some drugstore readers and look at a magazine through them; the glasses are too strong if you find yourself holding the text unnaturally close to your face.
You can also use your age to get a ballpark number. If you’re in your 40s you probably need a diopter of only +1.00 to +1.25. Then add half a unit for every decade you age.
Choosing one of the readily available diopters for reading glasses (between +1.00 and +3.00) works for most people who don’t already wear prescription lenses.
Possibly; it’s always worthwhile to ask your eye doctor about reading glasses during your regular checkup. Many people need different powers in the left and right lens, or correction for astigmatism. Or perhaps the optics in the ready-made readers are not centered correctly for your eyes (in accordance with your pupil measurement).
If you already wear a prescription lens, you may want to look into bifocals or progressive lenses instead of basic readers.
