If my glasses prescription has an ADD power, how will it be added to the lens?

I'm nearsighted (-4.00, -2.00) and my new prescription has an add power of +. 75. I was told that this is for reading/seeing close up. What I don't understand is how this affects the lenseds; will they make me look bug-eyed?

When I tried on reading glasses in CVS, my eyes looked huge. Will prescription glasses with +.75 do the same thing?

Or will they be like bifocals with a line?

I was also told that I can omit the add power when having glasses made.
