Get a pair of single-vision computer glasses and attach a holder to your
monitor. Try to remember to always put them there when you leave your
computer. If you're far-sighted with no astigmatism, you might be able
to get away with cheap drugstore/dollarstore readers.
I now have 4 pair of glasses to keep track of: indoor and outdoor lined
bifocals, reading glasses, and a pair of old bifocals whose 'distance'
setting is now exactly right for computer --> TV distance, an unexpected
bonus. And then, of course, there's the old pair of reading glasses
that's good for car-repair distance. And all the 99-cent readers of
various powers I use when I'm wearing my contacts...
