Reading glasses becomes necessary for viewing clearly when you have either farsightedness or presbyopia Although, in both the conditions it becomes difficult to view objects that are kept close by at nearly less than the arm’s length as they appear blurry and hazy. However, the causes are different. Farsightedness is caused due to changes in the shape of the lens at any age group. Whereas, Presbyopia is the condition of the eyes wherein the natural lens of the eyes loses its flexibility and becomes weak due to old age generally after reaching the 40s. Therefore, reader glasses with convex lenses (that are thin from inside and thick from the corners or the edges) are required to fix the refractive errors of the eyes. This way the user can view the objects that are nearby clearly without any medical procedure.
Thus, with the reading glasses the user can clearly do several things while focusing at close by distance easily such as reading newspaper, doing needlework, using a smartphone, working on computer etc.

Also, if you happen to wear distance glasses in your teens and also have farsightedness issues then you wear your distance glasses the whole day and use reading glasses only when necessary.
On the contrary, an individual that suffers from Presbyopia, which is associated with the old age disorder, the condition of the eyes is worse. After attaining 40s, you may not escape from the vision disorder wherein the lens will weaken, thicken and become inflexible. Therefore, there is difficulty in viewing objects that are close by.
