<< What happens when the eyes get tired and glasses are used?  Do you use
 the same distance/near prescription in the glasses too?>>
  
Gregg,
Usually you (if you are nearsighted) only need a distance prescription for 
when your eyes are tired and you take off your contacts (i.e. at night at 
home, etc). Since myops can usually see well up close, you usually can see 
close work well without glasses. Hyperops (farsighted's) would need either a 
bifocal or two pairs of glasses (one for distance and one for reading). All 
this is hard to specify without the actual prescription...a few too many 
variables here!!
