Presbyopia? Already?

I went for an exam today to see about new eyeglasses. My eyes are darn near perfect except for some astigmatism that makes vertical lines appear double, so I don't wear the glasses except to read road signs. Now today they've found that I need a little help with distance, and ugh—bifocals.

Well, just the bare beginnings of bifocals—so I deferred. Let my reading vision get worse before I go for bifocals.

Now I am wondering if the congestive changes of Graves' may have affected my distance vision.

And both the assistant and the optometrist noted that I have that Graves' stare. :-(
