John,

Yes and No. I am wearing normal progressive lens spectacles for both long and
short-sightedness. However, during inspection, due to my long sightedness, I
need to remove it in order to see properly. I usually held the board as close
as 20cm or 8" away from my eyes.

Does that make me prone to the UV reflection from the board.

Regards,
Wee Mei
