Parth Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 My eye numbers are 0.50 for both the right and left eye, when i went to the optician she says i need to wear reading glasses, isnt 0.50 too small, i can see perfectly well without glasses. any thoughts???
Holysmoke Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 0.5 is small, but I guess you should wear glasses to prevent it from increasing.
nikred Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 This makes me wonder. Inshallah, my eye sight has always been perfect but is there any chance of having a need for glasses even without any symptoms. Yes I know I am a little paranoid.:nervous:
fineleg Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 ^ Simple. Go get your eyes checked annually. They'll keep track of it.
nikred Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 ^ Simple. Go get your eyes checked annually. They'll keep track of it. Yea, that's what I am thinking too. But thanks to gods for good pairs of eyes.:icflove:
Parth Posted March 17, 2009 Author Posted March 17, 2009 Is there a chance by wearing reading glasses that my number could go down?
Holysmoke Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Is there a chance by wearing reading glasses that my number could go down? Yes. From what I've heard, reading glasses are easy to get rid of. Myopia isnt...
Ram Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Is there a chance by wearing reading glasses that my number could go down? You have short-sight at such a young age? Thats pretty odd, coz usually only old people suffer from short sight. Are you sure your optician said you need ‘reading glasses’ or did she say you need glasses for long-sight? And I am not trying to scare you or anything man, but just double check. And a power of .5 is almost negligible, IF you have short-sight myopia) that it. I dunno how it works for long-sight (hyper-metropia) though.
fineleg Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 ^ Its not common, but its not that rare either. My cousin is an opthamologist and has seen this in younger people from time to time.

Desi Cartman Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Wearing Glasses is coool :yay: also I dont know if it helps in getting rid off glasses one day but one thing for sure it makes reading , watching tv a lot easier and it may also stop your eyesight from getting worse ... You'll get used to it pretty quickly :nice:
Ram Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 friend of mine in school had reading glasses in one eye and long sight glasses in the other:haha: Really? Is that even possible? Come on man, how can the retina of one dis-form one way, while the retina of the other eye dis-form the other? :omg:
