my vision is poor enough that without contacts/glasses I can't simultaneously both

  1. hold the phone far enough away from my face for faceid to work, and 
  2. focus my eyes on the screen

so if I wake up in the middle of the night, I always have to use my passcode to unlock my phone.

Same issue here. I have found a way to sort of look past the phone that reliably unlocks at night.

Sounds like an ADA violation to me.
