Question

I'm a little concerned about my eye health and wanted some guidance. I have cylindrical power of 1.75 in both eyes, and I usually wear my glasses for reading, writing, using my phone or computer, and watching TV. Is it okay if I skip wearing them during other daily activities? I'm wondering if that would affect my vision or eye health. Could you give me some advice on this?

Question

In my recent eye exam, I noticed that my vision power has decreased from 4.00 to 3.5 in both eyes, and I've been told there's a cylindrical power of 1 in both eyes now. I'm wondering if it's a good or bad thing that my vision power went down like this without any treatment or surgery. Also, if I start wearing glasses with the prescribed cylindrical power, is there a chance that the cylindrical issue will improve over time?

Question
