Multi-focal soft contacts solved a similar set of problems for me where several of the other options you mentioned failed. It is a weird thing because your brain has to adjust and that took me a month. When the prescription changes, it sets me off a bit, not seriously or in a debilitating way, for a couple of weeks then the brain catches up.
Sometimes I catch myself with a slight unconscious head turn to distant things and sometimes my conscious brain has to say "see this close thing" to get my focus on small print, but it works for me. Sometimes late in the day it is easier to put on a set of reading glasses than the concentration that makes the close things clear.
We have all heard this mantra that the eye can only focus on one thing at a time, turns out not to be true at all, the brain can adapt to having two different focal planes landing on your retina and automatically sort through it, after some time training itself to do so.
