Will I get blind when I grow up? (piefed.world)

5 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I(M26) currently had been prescribed a new eye glasses to replace my current one with the following:

Right Eye:

Sphere=+3.5
Cylinder=-2.25

Left Eye:

Sphere=+4.25
Cylinder=-3.25

My life feels like hell, no glasses seem to give me a perfect vision and the whole thing is making me lose my mind. As it seems hopeless.

Is there is a solution or will my vision keep getting worse till I go blind?

It may be getting a second opinion from a differrnt optometrist, and make certain you are visiting one who can scan the shape of your cornea. If that is slightly out of round (for instance, a condition called Keratoconus) you'll find that glasses can't completely correct it, but hard contact lenses can.
