Default Slow To Focus

Those of you who wear bifocals for presbyopia, I have a question.
In the early stages, did you just notice that you couldn't focus near any more, or did it start with the realization that it took a little more time to switch focus from looking at something far away to something near?

You are right i heard people with presbyopia saying that they have to focus to see the thing far.

I noticed after reading or being on the computer, it took eyes minutes to finally see distance again. My eye doctor says the eye muscles are cramping. So if I wear reading glasses my eyes don't have to work so hard and won't cramp or at least not as bad, allowing me to see distance faster.

Thank you for your answer Resistoon. It's a special thing when someone can answer my question from personal experience. I'm glad the reading glasses are helping.

So how do you like this Lens 101 thing?
