magnification with prescription lenses

    I went to Specsavers and got my eyes tested as I'm at the age where I need reading glasses for reading stuff such as labels on jars. So I got glasses from them which are fine for that.

    However, I specifically asked that I get them so that they can magnify the screen of my laptop. The screen resolution is UHD (basically close to 4K) on a 13 inch laptop.

    With the glasses, I have to lean in to read the screen (it's impossible to do without them), but I even brought in my laptop and showed the optician that I need glasses that will magnify that so I don't have to lean in. However they did their tests, as they do, and I ended up with these glasses that are 1.0 Add.

    My question now is how can I order glasses online using the prescription, how can I adjust the Add to make sure I can read my screen, i.e. magnified at the normal sitting distance?
