You don't want a small laptop screen as close as possible to your eyes. That's asking for eyestrain and problems in the long-term.

If you're having trouble seeing clearly, you should use glasses and/or increase the system-wide font size (or decrease the "resolution").

Thanks, I keep all monitors (laptop or not) at arms length for work/reading, but for gaming or other immersive activities a 13in screen needs to be closer to match the experience of a full size monitor
