Ah, I'm glad to hear your experience of not being able to see close up with your "corrected" vision! From my partner and from optometrists I have been told that problems in my (normally excellent) near vision when wearing glasses are sort of my problem, and I should just "get used" to wearing the glasses all the time... and that if I have trouble seeing close up, that means I should look at getting reading glasses too.

(If this is any help to you -- I have set my browser to display a certain minimum text size, so I don't need to lean closer to the screen, perhaps it would work for you too?)
