Default Long Arm Quilting Glasses

This is one of those things that I thought everyone knew about, but I was telling a friend and she looked at me like I had 2 heads.
Optometrists routinely make computer glasses. You measure the distance from your eyes to the screen and they will give you a prescription for that distance. I just measured from my eyes to the center area of my long arm bed and had them make a pair for that distance. It really cuts down on eye strain, and hopefully makes me a better quilter!
The single vision lenses are pretty inexpensive and if you have an old eyeglass frame hanging around, you're good to go!
