Yes.

I normally use glasses with progressive lenses (the same idea as
bifocals but).  These don't work well with my monitor: I have to tilt
and twist my head too much.

For using monitors, I got a prescription from my optometrist for
fixed-focus lenses, optimized for the distance between my eyes and the
monitor (I measured it before he wrote the prescription).  This is
well worth the cost.  Really.
