The TV is likely a healthier distance to keep your eyes focused on all day regardless, but were glasses not an option?
Glasses would have been the "normal person" fix, but my eyes are great otherwise (better than 20/20 distance vision). So I could focus closer with glasses, but the lenses were worse quality than just sitting farther back.
