Signs of myopia
Sitting close to the TV is a sign of myopia
But reading a book very close to your eye is a sign of hypermetropia

My uncle has refused to use eye glasses.
He can see very well and can still read but he can only read very small prints when the room is very bright and i mean extremely bright or if a bright torch light is directed at the pages of a book with small print.
But if the print is large he can read it easily with little or no light.

Any idea how to help this nice young uncle of mine. In his early 50s
Your uncle is eliciting a presbyopic symptom. it's expected with his age. let him go see an optometrist.

You can be a little luck if your eye sight is going to be corrected if not sorry.
I used glass in jss1 and it made my eye enter inside a little bit due to constant wearing then at the end of my jss3 my father told me he is not going to buy another glass for me because I have spoilt like five.
I resumed school for ss1 and people considered me ugly because of my shrunken eye.
Well it changed back to normal after some time, I just graduated and I know because I looked at the pictures I took.

What I am saying here is even if you are using glasses, don't wear it all the time, only wear it when you need it like looking at the board or if someone is far and waving at you and you want to see the person's face cheesy

Pls my eyes is allergic to light/brightness. I can't drive in the night once another vehicle flash light, at night I can't stay in a room with fluorescent light, I can't walk under the sun, etc. Also I can't read tiny letters like most Bible print and if I force my eyes to see it I will experience sharp and severe pain in my eyes. And most of the symptoms list by op I experience them but I'm afraid/dislike wearing glasses, any drugs to treat my eyes?

Too many hours spent in front if a computer i guess is the cause.

Bro their is really nothing you can do except to get glasses.

If your own case of myopia is from birth like mine,then its genetic,just see a doctor who could prescribe the correct lense for you

Well u don't seem to have a problem,
Just get glasses for some time ,it will correct ur vision permanently since it was not from birth.

By the way avoid ,using ur phone late into the night, it could be what's causing ur blurred vision

You should go see an optometrist. if you don't want to wear glasses there is also contact lenses option.

Try seeing an optometrist, maybe it might be a case of progressive myopia.

Nice Post! If you are an electronics engineer who wishes to migrate to Australia to look for better career prospects or a new job in your domain, then you must be no stranger to the process of preparing a CDR report for electronics engineer as per the Migration Skills booklet brought out by Engineers Australia.

Not really Sir

Refractive errors are abit more complex than that

For example, patients with high myopia, hyperopia and high astigmatism can have poor vision both at far and near.

But generally, patients with good near vision (both sitting close to TV and reading at very close range) all points to myopia

Proudly an Optometrist (Doctor of Eyes)

Don't manage the lens and spoil the Eye!

Visit an Eye � specialist for your proper eye checkup....

Uncle optometrist I'm getting tired of using my glasses, so sometimes I don't use it. This is the fifth glasses I'm using since I started using glasses and trust me when I say I still experience headaches and sometimes I become dizzy.
Just of recent I almost fell off the staircase case I became dizzy and my vision was really blur.
Now I'm seriously praying my children don't have my my kinda eye issue(but they can inherit my shinny brown iris).
I'm tired of doctor's appointment without results, so what can I do on my own.

If you still experience headaches and dizziness with best spectacle correction. You might need vision therapy to eliminate such symptoms.quote author=AprilSmallWoman post=81497453]
