You cannot use this chart by looking at your monitor due to size and resolution differences among computers. When printed out at the correct size the box should measure 7.25 inches in width.
To find the correct reading glasses lens power, read this chart at the traditional reading distance of 14-16 inches. The first line you have difficulty reading is the suggested lens strength for you at that distance.
