Not being an optician and bearing in mind the requirements of the legislation to provide free eye tests and basic correction appliances if required does this mean that bi-focals are not basic appliances

John - bifocals would never do - one would have to crank ones head at such an un-natural angle to view the screen that this would likely INCREASE the risk of injury. If your operator routinely wears bifocals, it is likely that the lower lens focal length would not be the same as the focal length required for VDU work anyway. A separate "basic" pair of specs is the answer I feel.

I would agree with Bill one of our employees was using vari-focals and had problems with neck ache (a real pain in the neck). I provided him with single vision and the problem went away.
