Why do you need reading glasses from around 40?
Over the years the lens of the eye becomes less flexible, so focusing up close gets harder and harder. This is called presbyopia, and it happens to almost everyone from about the age of 40.
The strength you need usually keeps increasing until around 60. That is why the strength you choose now may no longer fit in a few years.
