Presbyopia

Presbyopia is age based hyperopia that sets in usually after the age of 40 years old, and a lot of times, it worsens until around age 65. It is when people find it hard to look at objects closer to their eyes. These people would hold things like books and phones far away, or get headaches reading things closely.^[4]
