Summary: Glasses instead of screen

I was going to buy a screen/filter to use while working on the computer
but since I work at 4 different sites in the city, I did not want to
have to carry this screen all over the place.  Also, the screen I wanted
was made by Polaroid.  It reduced glare, UV rays, etc. and was VERY nice 
but for $150.00 I should hope so.  Afterwards, I went to my father's 
optometrist and spoke to him about glasses to reduce glare, UV rays, etc.
He asked me what color screen I work on and what kind of lighting was in
the rooms where I work.  My answers were a green screen and flourescent
lighting.  Even though I don't wear glasses, Dr. Myers said to come in,
pick out frames, and then he'll make the lenses - nonprescription, UV 
treated and whatever else must be done to make them equivalent to the $140.00
screen.  Well, I now have a pair of glasses with very light voilet tinted
and UV treated lenses.  I really like them and the $80.00 price tag sure
beats the $140.00!  They're also easier to carry around in my purse than
a screen/filter.
