You too?

If you actually wear bifocals while you are using your
computer, then do yourself a favor - next time you have
glasses made, have them make you a bifocal pair IN
REVERSE !  i.e. the small lens is the distance cut
and at the top, the big lens is the proper cut for
your use of the screen, and with the small segment
at the top of the lens lets you see across the room.

To prevent yourself from taking the computer glasses
away from the computer just use a piece of double-sided
tape to mount a flat-back eyeglass case on the side of
the monitor and develop the habit of putting the computer
glasses into the case before you get up from the chair.

BTW since you normally have the face of the monitor
further away than the normal item you are reading
the optometrist will need to tweak the cut slightly.
And since the glasses will probably never leave the
house you can pick a pair of frames that are
comfortable - to heck with the looks.

Been there, done that, got the idea for the reverse
bifocals from a professional writer.
As an aside, his was the first reverse pair they had
ever made and the technician who made them goofed
on the first set of lenses - made them "normal".
The writer said she got the idea from her dad who had
a reverse pair made during WW2 - daddy was a aircraft
assembler for Lockheed - and the majority of his work
was done at arms length or a little less and until he got
them was complaining about having to look through a
keyhole all the time.
