Potentially: You can have normal distance vision, but not ideal reading vision. With aging, many patients with near sightedness (myopia) notice an improvement with distance vision, but a progressively more difficulty reading small print. You can try on some reading glasses (which come in different magnifications) at a store with some small newspaper print. Take care!
