Title: Periscope glasses to look up whilst looking forward to stop neck strain??
Post by: Mick Kent on March 21, 2016, 07:04:53 pm: Is there anything out there that can be used to save my neck strain looking up all day whilst working.
I have seen online they do Lazy glasses that look down to read a book whilst looking straight but cant find anything that looks up.
I hope im making sence here??

There must be something out there.

Glasses will just mask the problem!
Get yourself some good sports therapy massage or similar.
