In fact, I can see things sharp until 1cm in front of my nose!

But things that are further away than let's say 2 meter are already becomming blurry for me when I don't wear my glasses...

I'm wearing glasses but even then it's quite hard to read the shortcode.

The location of the short code is also important. Often a 20 Euro bill is the problem with it being folded twice. The foldline goes right across the shortcode. Also the 5 Euro bill is a problem with its grey colour. When washed (or other reason) the numbers are less readable. Third problem is when you are tried, than reading the shortcode in the early hours of the day becomes a problem. Futhermore bills are often not treaded with respect. It is money! We need those numbers!!
