How do you calculate this? Is it based on your previous prescription somehow, or does it require another optometrist appointment?

Just add diopters to the SPH (sphere) portion of your prescription, there is a formula 1/diopters to get your desired focal plane: +1 for 1 meter away, +1.25 for 0.8 meters, etc
