Abstract

A 44 year-old female had complained of ocular tiredness, reading difficulty, tearing, eyestrain and headaches associated with reading. A theorerical estimation of the vertical prismatic effect indicared an amount too high to be compensared by the parient. On a trial basis, bifocal lenses were prescribed with slab off of less value of that found by theoretical estimarion, but this was accompanied by cessation of the majority of her symptoms.
