Thank you, colordrops! I looked for official, or at least more definitive, information on the focal distance to no avail. This definitely qualifies!

That said, it is of the DK2, which is clearly different than the DK1. Which leads me to wonder what the focal distance is for the Gear VR (Note4) and the new Gear VR.

Sadly, I'm so nearsighted at this point, that I have a hard time reading anything more than ≈4 inches away (things are out of focus at ≈2 inches away, but it's good enough and there are typically enough clues in the 2~4 inch range that I can still read normal text). In other words, if I'm only training my eyes at a distance of 30.5 inches for the next half decade, I suspect it will still be enough to lead to an improvement, and there will be even more improvements in tech (both in the VR & optometry) during that time frame.
