How close does your eye have to be to a fresnel lens for the image to be clear?

Do they have to be at the exact focal length? I'm trying to do perform a few calculations but they all require distance between eye and lens, and I don't have access to the lenses while I'm out of town.

The lens will be perfectly parallel with the object it is magnifying, and at the exact focal length.

What will happen if the eye is closer to the lens than the focal length? Closer?

Thanks in advance.
