Women over 40 don’t lose vision—we lose patience for squinting. 👓✨

Holding your phone farther away, needing better lighting, grabbing readers more often? That’s not weakness or “getting old.” It’s your eyes changing naturally—and you choosing comfort over struggle.

We’ve earned the right to see clearly, work comfortably, and read without headaches. Taking care of your vision is self-care, not a concession. So turn up the light, book the eye exam, wear the glasses… and move on with your powerful, busy life.

Clear vision looks really good on confident women.

Sun protection lenses in Rodenstock quality

It is Rodenstock's mission to provide sharper vision for all spectacle wearers - this also applies to sunglass lenses with and without prescription. With the innovative sunglass lens technology "Lambda Lens Technology", Rodenstock offers high-precision, contrast-enhancing sunglass lenses that optimise the colours that the lens transmits, thereby increasing contrast perception.

o Full UV protection - for full protection of your eyes
o Available in individual prescriptions and a wide range of colours - tailored to your personal needs
o High precision sunglass lenses - that protect the eye without compromising visual details
o Colour and contrast enhancement - for sharper vision, better depth perception and more detail sharpness

Polarised sun protection lenses offer more safety and visual comfort outdoors and when driving, especially in strongly reflective areas such as snow or water. The polarising effect ensures a significant reduction of the dazzling effects, good colour perception and a clear detailed view also in difficult lighting conditions – for example in deep snow or in the case of reflections on wet roads. Choose your favourites from three stylish colours: Polarised Brown, Polarised Grey or Polarised Green.

Questions to ask your kids now that they are back in the classroom:

Ask these during normal activities (homework, TV, reading):
• “Do words ever look blurry or move?”
• “Do your eyes hurt or feel tired?”
• “Do you get headaches, especially after reading or screens?”
• “Do you see double or need to close one eye?”
• “Is it hard to see the board / TV / signs far away?”
• “Is it hard to read small print?”
• “Do lights bother you or look too bright?”
• “Do your eyes ever feel dry, itchy, or watery?”

For younger kids, simpler phrasing helps:
• “Can you see that sign?”
• “Do your eyes feel funny?”
• “Does reading make your head hurt?”
Things to watch for (behaviour clues)

You may notice vision problems before they do:
• Squinting or covering one eye
• Sitting very close to screens or books
• Holding books very close or far away
• Frequent eye rubbing
• Losing place while reading
• Avoiding reading or homework
• Tilting head or turning face to see
• Poor hand-eye coordination (missing balls, bumping into things)

When to schedule an eye exam
• Any yes to pain, headaches, double vision, or blur
• Declining school performance or reading avoidance
• Family history of glasses, lazy eye, or eye disease
• Even with no symptoms:
o Preschool: at least once
o School age: every 1–2 years
o Teens: every 1–2 years (yearly if wearing glasses/contacts)

Yes — it’s very common to need glasses after 40, and it’s considered a normal part of aging.

Why it happens

Around age 40–45, most people develop presbyopia. This occurs when the eye’s natural lens becomes less flexible, making it harder to focus on close objects.

Common signs
• Needing to hold reading material farther away
• Difficulty reading small print
• Eye strain or headaches when reading
• Blurry vision up close (distance vision may still be fine)
• Needing brighter light to read
How common is it?
• Almost everyone develops presbyopia eventually
• It affects people regardless of whether they’ve had perfect vision before
• People who already wear glasses often need reading glasses or bifocals
• People who never needed glasses often start with reading glasses only

What kind of glasses people use
• Prescription Reading glasses
• Progressive lenses
• Computer glasses

What it doesn’t mean
• It’s not a sign your eyes are unhealthy
• It’s not preventable with exercises
• It’s not caused by screens, though screens can make symptoms more noticeable

When to see an Optometrist
• If near vision is blurry
• If you get headaches or eye strain
• If one eye seems worse than the other
• Even without symptoms, eye exams every 1–2 years after 40 are recommended

If you’d like help you figure out what type of glasses would fit your daily activities (reading, computer, phone, driving), or explain how presbyopia differs from other vision changes contact us https://freshvision.com.au/
