Presbyopia - Reading Difficulties

"During middle age, usually beginning in the 40s, people experience blurred vision at near points, such as when reading, sewing or working at the computer. There's no getting around it — this happens to everyone at some point in life, even those who have never had a vision problem before.

When people develop presbyopia, they find they need to hold books, magazines, newspapers, menus and other reading materials further away or at arm's length in order to focus properly. When they perform near work, such as embroidery or handwriting, they may have headaches or eyestrain, or feel fatigued."
