[accordion-item title=”What is a reading aid?”]
There are many different types of devices to help with reading if your own eyes are not good enough. These include classic magnifying glasses, but also reading rulers that enlarge individual lines of text and digital systems that scan text and display it enlarged on a monitor or even read it aloud.
However, the most common type of reading aids are reading glasses, or more precisely prefabricated reading glasses, whose lenses are not specially adapted to the wearer’s visual acuity, but where both lenses have the same, prefabricated diopter values and which help people with presbyopia to be able to read texts clearly again at the usual reading distance.
[/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”What are prefabricated reading glasses?”]
In contrast to glasses, which are individually adjusted to your needs by an optician, ready-made reading glasses are already prefabricated. Ready-made reading glasses therefore always have the same power in both eyes and are usually available from 1.0 diopters to 3.5 diopters in increments of 0.5 diopters. Occasionally, they are also available up to 4.0 diopters or in 0.25 diopter increments.
[/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”How much do good reading glasses cost?”]
Even if cheap reading glasses are often available for just a few euros and are certainly more than enough for a quick glance at a petrol receipt or a till receipt, you should do yourself a favor and buy higher quality reading glasses for longer, relaxed reading.
If you get on well with ready-made reading glasses, you can expect significantly better lenses for models from around 15 euros, which usually have less distortion in the peripheral areas and some also have integrated filters or anti-reflective coatings. If you have problems reading despite wearing good ready-made reading glasses (e.g. headaches, burning eyes or rapid fatigue), you should have your reading glasses customized by an optician. Cheap offers for reading glasses with customized lenses are often available from as little as 20-30 euros. However, if you want a special branded frame, lighter lenses or additional anti-reflective coatings, customized reading glasses can cost several hundred euros.
[/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”Are ready-made reading glasses enough for me?”]
If you have not needed glasses before, you will probably be fine with ready-made reading glasses. Nevertheless, it is advisable to have an eye test carried out by an ophthalmologist or optician to check whether presbyopia occurs to the same extent in both eyes and, of course, to determine what power your reading glasses should have.
[/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”Are cheap glasses bad for the eyes?”]
It’s handy to have a pair of reading glasses to hand in all sorts of places, one in the car, one at the workbench, one on the armchair in the living room. And of course you sometimes reach for inexpensive glasses. These cheap reading glasses are a good choice, especially when it comes to briefly reading a note or a receipt – better a cheap pair of reading glasses than none at all.
However, the very cheap models for just a few euros should not necessarily be used permanently, as the low price is sometimes at the expense of quality. But even here, if you don’t have any problems with them, you can’t go wrong.
Even if people often say otherwise: The wrong glasses have no lasting effect on the health of your eyes. This is also confirmed by the optical professionals at Zeiss:

[accordion-item title=”When do I need reading glasses?”]
From around the age of 40, most people find that they can no longer read small print well. Initially, it helps to increase the distance to the text a little, i.e. simply stretch your arm a little more so that the letters can be seen clearly again. But at the latest when “the arm is no longer long enough” or perhaps even a headache sets in when reading, you should do something good for yourself and your eyes and buy your first pair of reading glasses.
[/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”Are reading glasses from an optician better?”]
Especially if you need different lenses in both eyes or if you already needed everyday glasses before reading glasses, you should have your reading glasses custom-made by an optician. Customized reading glasses are also a sensible investment if you read a lot at work or as a hobby, or if you work with small parts.
[/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”Why do I need reading glasses?”]
So-called presbyopia occurs sooner or later in almost all people. The lens in the eye loses its elasticity over the years, meaning that it can no longer be deformed so flexibly that it can image close objects sharply on the retina. Reading glasses help the eye here, the muscles do not have to pull so hard on the lens and reading becomes relaxed again.
[/accordion-item]
[accordion-item title=”What is better with more expensive reading glasses?”]
With higher-quality ready-made reading glasses, you can assume that – in addition to better workmanship overall – higher-quality lenses are also used. These contribute to a sharper image, especially in the peripheral areas, and therefore to more relaxed eyes when reading or doing small tasks. The lenses of these reading glasses are often extra scratch-resistant or have additional filters, for example UV filters or filters against blue light from computer monitors and cell phones.
