I am like half blind without my glasses and I am 19?
The Muffin
My vision is like -6 or +6. I don't no which one but its for far away. I feel like I am gonna be blind by the time I reach 40. I don't have lot of friends and I stay on my phone all day everyday. Please help. Is three any operation for ur eyes that will possibly cure my sight?
Answer
-6.00 is a very correctable amount of myopia. You can get regular contact lens.
You might get slightly more nearsighted in the next year or two because your eyeballs are still growing, but you're pretty close to the point where your eyeballs are done growing. Nothing you do will make that better or worse. Like the growth of your hands, arms, and every other part of your body, it is genetically controlled. Looking at your phone or reading or sitting in the dark will not make you more nearsighted.
You could get laser surgery to correct your vision, but it doesn't always work perfectly. If you want to see well, glasses are your best bet.
If I could suggest something: it sounds like you're alone, which can lead you to think about things, especially bothersome things. You are doing what therapists call "awfulizing". You are going from "I need glasses to see" to "I'm going to be blind".
You aren't going to be blind. Your vision might get tiny bit worse in the next year or two, and after that it will be completely stable.
In your 40's, the lenses of your eye will be stiff with age. It happens to everyone. At that point, you will need bifocals to see up close, or you can just take off your glasses to see up close. This happens to everyone in their 40's. That's why people who don't need glasses for distance wear reading glasses to read, and people who need glasses for distance (like you) wear bifocals, which has a part of the lens for distance and a part of the lens for close. You will be able to see perfectly fine with your bifocals for the rest of your life.
You are not going blind. You're getting yourself worked up. Please consider whether you might be a little bit depressed, and it so, talk to your doctor.

How should I strengthen my eyesight?
Dori
I have had glasses for 5 years (I am 14). My right eye was 1.70 when I first got my glasses and now it is 2.50. My right eye was 1.75 and now it is 5.0. I am scared that I am going to get blind...does anyone have any eye exercises or tips???
Answer
I'm afraid you cannot strengthen your eyesight hun, you can only do your best to maintain it by eating the right vitamins that are good for your eyes, and making sure you look after them as best as you can.
The only way to solve poor eyesight is through laser eye surgery, but you are too young and it has risks involved.
My eye sight is poor:
-6.50 left eye
-6.00 right eye
I'm always worried that I am going blind but my optician has reassured me that I am not. I wear contact lenses now and am hoping to get laser eye surgery once I believe it is really safe.
Look after yourself and don't worry, it's unlikely you're going blind :)
