Online Vision Strength Test FAQ

How accurate is the Online Vision Strength Test?

The test provides a reliable estimate for most users when you test in good lighting at your normal reading distance. Confirm by reading for 20 to 30 minutes with the suggested power.

Can I use the test on a smartphone or tablet?

Yes. Phone, tablet, or computer all work. Hold the screen at your usual reading distance and set a comfortable brightness.

Do I need to remove my regular glasses before starting the test?

Yes for over the counter readers. Remove distance or reading glasses so the result reflects your natural near focus. If you wear prescription lenses, ask your eye doctor for guidance.

Is the test suitable if I am under 40 or do not need readers yet?

You can take it, but most people need readers after about age 40 because of presbyopia. If you notice blur at near, test and consider a low power to start.

How often should I retake the test?

Every 12 to 24 months, or sooner if near text becomes less clear or you begin holding items farther away.

What if the test suggests +1.50 but I usually wear +2.00?

Try the lower strength first to reduce strain. If small print still feels difficult after a 20 to 30 minute read, step up by 0.25 to 0.50 diopters.

Will the test work if I have astigmatism or different strengths in each eye?

The test is a helpful estimate. For astigmatism or large differences between eyes, schedule an eye exam for a personalized prescription.

Bottom line: Take the Online Vision Strength Test - New Window. Choose the readers that fit your routine. Keep a pair with you so clarity is always close.
