Why is Reading Difficult as We Become Older

As you become older, you may find reading difficult. In fact, you may also notice that you’re holding books and restaurant menus farther, to see clearly. This is a normal process of ageing: all of us face this struggle, and is due to changes within your eyes over time. This refractive error, or vision problem, is called presbyopia.

Puffy eyes, Under-eye bags and Dark circles

With age, you will notice a change in your eyes. The tissues around the eye tend to sag. This is because of loss of skin tone. The fat shifts forward into the lower eyelids, and gives the appearance of bags under the eyes. Fluid retention in the eyelids makes them look puffy or swollen.
