Brief Answer:
presbyopia.
Detailed Answer:
With your age the problem is presbyopia. Every one at this age face this problem. It is caused by weak accommodation, therefore things that fall within near vision distance are not clear.
My recommendation is first get your near vision correction.You might have to use a near vision specs for computer. Take anti glare lens in your specs . Now you will look clearly to near object including computer. If possible fit anti glare glass in front of your computer screen. Never use computer continuously for long time. You will develop dry eye. Take break and blink. Apply refresh eye tear drop 2 times.
Hope this helps.
