The funduscopic exam, extraocular movements and pupillary reactions are within normal limits. When considering a diagnosis of presbyopia, which of the following best describes patient presentation? 

A. A 50-year-old who states, "I need to hold what I'm reading really far away in order to see it clearly". 

B. A 75-year-old who states,"When I look at a bright light, I see a colored halo around it".

C. An 80-year-old who states, "I have a blurry spot in the middle of my eyesight". 

D. A 17-year-old who states, "I went to get my driver’s license, but failed the distance vision exam".
