As I Get older I have eye issues. I think I suffer from Near-sightedness, also known as short-sightedness.
I can't remember. is nearsightedness where you can't see close up or far away?
Distant objects are blurry but things up close are fine. 
Oh, I see. No pun intended. I have the same thing but even now things are starting to get blurry up close as well.
Do you also get headaches from the eye strain? Mine can get bad.
I do! sometimes I take benadryle and head ache meds to relieve it. works pretty good but makes you sleepy.
Maybe you should get checked out as well. I was told if it gets bad it can lead to retinal detachment, cataracts, and glaucoma.
