boss, well done sir..
Got glasses from my doc and I've been using it for about a week now and I still see things a bit blurry, the vision has improved tho'( I only take the glasses off when I want to bathe or sleep) the vision in my right eye has improved but the vision in my left has improved just a little... the lens power of the left eye is -3 and the right is -2.25... is the prescription wrong? and must the vision in the two eyes be the same before I can see normal?... I'm a student and its hard to see the things written on the board

hi there, I think you may need to go back to your doc for a possible review of your prescription. he may also have an explanation for your not being able to see clearly with your prescription.

Hello Doc,
I have been having severe pain in the eye, and headache after a long time use of gadgets with electronic light.
Whenever I start using a gadgets, with time my vision start getting blurr, and I thereby continue to strain my eye leading to pains and headache.

When I formally visited a hospital, they diagnosed me of short sightedness , but in the process of doing refraction, I couldn't focus and I started having headache. The nurse went to tell the doctor, so he asked Me to go for autoref.
After the autoref, and some refr test, they concluded I have astigmatism.

They said they can only give me glass no drugs

Me I don't want to use glass oo, my eyeball is big before, dont want it to become bigger
pls i want you to have a second look at the results maybe you can give another prognosis.

maybe eye drop and drug fit do the job.

Please I need any good medical personnel or student that can paraphrase passages for a medical student in US (like an assignment). I'm willing to pay anyone, asap pls 09039621382

glasses should make you see normally but at times pple find difficulty in adjusting to the concept of having to see through their glasses but this shouldn't take that long to get used to. are you having issues with your glasses?

yea.. the sight has improved greatly but i cant still see normally.... though the doctor told me that glasses can only help my right eye.... does it have something to do with that?

Lorayne:

how do u mean, u can't see normally? did the doc diagnose any other condition that glasses couldn't help in?

i couldn't see clearly with my left eye all my life... and the doc said since i didnt start wearing glasses at a young age there is nothing ihe can do to correct the left eye(he is not the first to tell me that). i did some research and it seems like i have amblyopia

he said the right eye can be helped.... but the glasses he gave me its not making me see as clear as people with normal sight... do i need the left eye to function well before i can see clearly?... cant see the board unless i'm sitting at the front seat

oh now i understand you better. you may not be getting standard vision because of the state of your eyes. although the right eye was helped to see better with glasses, but yet couldn't get u optimum vision. Sorry dear just try adjust to living with what you are having and use your glasses regularly

I just came across this thread now

Back in 2009, SS1 days I noticed I could no longer view writings on the board clearly while sitting at the middle or back of the class. Before then I have always been a back bencher. It just started suddenly, no pains, no itching, just blurry visions. I didn't take it seriously.

It continued like that till my university days and I refused seeing an eye doc as I never wanted anything to do with lenses, just dark shades.

Fast forward to present day, it's all still the same. I have to sit a bit close to the TV screen to view clearly. I can't read sign boards from a distance unless it's writing boldly. The worst of it all now is that I can't see faces clearly from a distance, People come begin vex say I nor dey like Hala dem, not knowing that I don't see their faces clearly. Sometimes I have to recognize you from the way you move and your body structure.
NOTE: No pains, no itching, no nothing. Just blurry visions

hi there. it's very important you make an appointment with an eye doctor for an eye exam. delays like this could be dangerous .

I'll see one soon. I just hope it's not that eye ulcer I've been reading about.. My parents use glasses too, so maybe it's hereditary.
