gerber404:I wil like 2 no how old u re..that's a sign of anisometropia,u nid to visit an eye clinic urgently 2 avoid suppressing the bad eye which might result 2 the bad eye being suppressed and deviated (strabismic or tropia). The end result being amblyopia in that eye I.e not responding 2 any optical or medical treatment..refractive error,cataract,glaucoma and other eye conditions can cause this 1 Like |

GraceInUSA:wot the prescription means is that u have: simple hyperopic astigmatism..photochromic lens are lenses that works in an automatic way by adjusting itself 2 becom darker while u are in a bright environment so that u can feel comfortable,it also adjusts itself when in a dark environment by looking brighter so that enuf light can enter the eyes so that the patient can see comfortable..if ur lens is nt responding dis way then its nt a photochromic lens..tanx |

cheezkid:the trut is that lenses don't correct the eyes..being short sighted is usually as a result of the length eyeball either being too long or the refractive media power I.e the cornea and the crystaline lens being too strong,so images tends 2 form in front of the retina and not on the macula..wot glasses does is that it helps 2 push the image formed on the retina so that the patient can see far object clearly and comfortable..although,tru clinical experience,I ve discovered dat glasses tends to correct some patients with low myopia after using deir glasses for some time,and dey bcom emmetropic I.e there eyesight becoms normal and they can see clearly without glasses..I wil advise u visit an eye clinic regularly I.e 6mnths-1year, so as 2 always review ur refractive status..tanx |

drsteroid: I'm grateful. I get you. My next questions are: Would the glasses be for life?? I noticed that viewing distance, my eye sight seems to be sharper than the glasses. In other words the glasses is blurred at distance. Is it supposed to be so?? Is it normal for my eyes to feel dry under a room with the fan on?? I used to have serious problems using a laptop because of the eye pain. Does the glasses also solve that problem?? |

drsteroid: Thanks Doc, I will do that ASAP. Thanks once again |
Re: Ask The Eye Doctor Any Problem Concerning The Eyes by drsteroid(m): 9:26pm On Oct 28, 2014 |
GraceInUSA:no,ur naked eye ought nt 2 be better than the glasses when viewing distance objectsm.I tink d problem is either ur lens power seems 2 weaker compared 2 ur refractive demand or u have an underlying pathology e.g diabetes. Fan helps 2 increase d rate of evaporation of tears thereby making d eye dry,but a reflex feedback mechanism heps 2 produce and release more tears when such happens,making d person 2 be more comfortable,I bliv u nid visit an eye clinic so dat ur tear film stability andtear volume can be analysed..yes ur glasses is suposed 2 relieve u also of d pain u ecperience wheneva u use ur laptop..but if u use a distance single vision lenses,n u ought 2 be using a near add with it,but not incorporated in it,u wil find it difficult workin on ur computer or other near work,dis is mainly 4 patients above 39years old.pls visit ur eye clinic and make all ur complain known 2 ur eye doctor..tanx |

Glad I found this..... drsteroid.... I've had eye problems since I was young which were occupied by severe headaches and they would come and go, but when I turned 18, my left eye couldn't see anything at night. Everything would be totally black, I went for a check-up and I was told there's nothing wrong with me. The eyes were terribly painful at that time, just eye drops and the pain would subside. The blindness however reduced but the right sees things in a brighter way than the left, the light at night makes me cry, its like there's something being pulled from the veins in the eyes. What could be the problem? Glasses makes me look old biko, is the any other way I can skip those because I went to check the optometrist who told me I need glasses. |

ayansegzy:whenever we sleep the blood vessls in our eyes gets dilated I.e vasodilation,causing more blood flow to the conjuctiva blood vessels and other tissues,so our eyes tends 2 look red than it was b4 sleeping..this is a normal physiological process..it bcoms a problem when associated with other symptoms like discharge and gritty sensation..tanx |
