Extending the discussion of eyeglasses...
My eyesight is bad enough that one pair of progressive lenses would
leave only a very narrow slit focused on any one distance (bi- or tri-
focals would of course also leave serious nulls at many distances).
Solution: 2 separate sets of progressive lenses; one for "nearby", the
other for "distance". Over the recent decades I've now had, I think,
four sets of such progressive pairs. With some sets the corrections are
such that the "nearby" pair are my "normal" glasses, the others are
essentially my driving glasses. At other times, the "distance" ones are
my normal glasses, and the "nearby" ones used for computer / contesting
/ reading.

One often overlooked aspect is your glasses. If you need bifocals, you may
be unconsciously tilting your head or adjusting your sitting position.
I have a special pair of glasses with the reading prescription in the whole
lens. And, I had the optometrist adjust the prescription to optimize it for
monitor and transceiver depth.
