Exciting news for those enough who are 40+ and spend too much time in front of a computer screen: a Finnish startup called IXI is promising to end the era of clunky bifocals and the 'head-tilt' struggle of progressive lenses, replacing them with a pair of glasses that focus as naturally as the human eye using a combination of infrared eye tracking and liquid crystal-transparent indium tin oxide glasses

I have them. I also have a large monitor both at home and at work that the sweet spot for being able to focus is a narrow range toward the bottom. So I have a pair of single vision computer glasses that I either misplace or forget I’m still wearing when I leave the office to drive home. So I’m still constantly switching glasses. Yeah I know …. first world problems. I want my old eyes back. Getting old sucks.

I just want a technological fix for what my eyes used to be able to do on their own.
