I think we're saying the same thing: one correction only for working

I had a special pair of bifocals made for use at the monitor. They worked
okay as long as I was in DOS with my 15" monitor, but when I went to Windows
and Word, with the smaller, lighter fonts on a white screen, I was straining
badly to read the screen. I went back to my original idea of using reading
glasses, made from my bifocals, and that solve my problems. I now work in
DOS or Windows programs with complete ease.
