Reading glasses: what the strengths actually mean
Ready-made readers are labelled by strength, from about +1.00 up to +3.00. The number is how much magnification the lens adds. Most people start around +1.25 in their forties and move up slowly from there. If print is clear at arm's length but blurry up close, a reader is probably all you need.
If one eye is noticeably worse than the other, or you get headaches, see an optometrist instead. A single strength across both eyes will not fix that.
