Presbyopia is a common vision condition that occurs due to aging, causing difficulty in focusing on close objects. This can result in the need for holding reading material further away from the eyes to bring it into focus. Farsightedness (A) and myopia (D) are refractive errors that cause difficulty in seeing distant and close objects, respectively. Visual acuity problems (B) refer to a range of vision disorders affecting the sharpness and clarity of vision. While this may be a factor in presbyopia, it is not the specific condition causing Tomasina's symptoms.
