Reading glasses are usually for people over 45 years of age.  Non-prescription readers could work well for people with equal prescriptions in both eyes and little to no astigmatism.  Custom made/prescription  readers can take care of differences in refractive errors between the two eyes, including astigmatism, yielding better quality vision.

That is an excellent description and given the information you provided (very thorough), my thought is you are not ready for prescription glasses yet.  The prescription is minimal READ MORE
That is an excellent description and given the information you provided (very thorough), my thought is you are not ready for prescription glasses yet.  The prescription is minimal and my guess is your vision without correction is very good at both distance and near so the (very
small) prescription is probably not worth it at this point.
