HI,
As some of you might know allready, our eye gets worse every year, till we are about 40 years , naturaly, the eye starts to well, run out. Yet, there are ppl that are quite old and don tuse them, few of them .
Wearing glasses or contact lense, makes the eye even worse.
Im 18 years, i never weared glasses , and i dont want to wear them till im at least old. I sit too much on computer, wayyyyyy too much, going late sleep, like 12-16h straigh on pc , and going sleep at like 2 o lcock?
Now, i see, my right eye is worse, they are very red, like if i took drugs or smoke or something i dont know.. if i go out id cry , even now, im just about to cry . Here we go! Im crying !
I looked on internet, and ofcourse, i didnt do any of the breaks, i know a break should be every 20,40 minutes and or 60 minutes for x amout of time looking xx feet away .
I looked at some exercises that train to improve eye etc.. Eyesight with pencil, some letters on paper whatever..
So my question is , assuming im -2 on eye, which i was like -0.75 right eye two years ago, but i believe i can be -2 now.. i dont know , i just believe i am , so if i make the exercies over time, sleep well, going early to bed, make breaks form pc and look away, is there any posibilities that i can even lets say go to -1? fomr -2 ?
Im going to go full time developer as well, on pc, whcih i believe wont help in the eye , unless i was a millionaire now, id probably made my self a eye break and do everything to get them better but cant at the moment.
It would be the best, if anyone did a research, if there could be a link as well : p
DO you have any stories with glasses?
Whats up with the kids that weared glasses when they were kids and now thier 20 years and they don need them anymore? so if im 18 and do exerices i migh go frmo -2 to -1 ?
My left eye is ok, my right not as well. Plus , if it get a little blury, with the exercises, will it get smaller? the blur.

2,435 PointsFrom my research, glasses makes eye worse and sometimes is better not wear them but u need a good specialist, not the average . So that goes out of my limits now : p
But thank you, thats a good idea at the end : p
