Hey, I uploaded two of my prescriptions. Could you let me know if my vision has improved since 2018? I'm really curious if there's been any progress with it.

Question

I've been having some issues with my eyes and vision, and my eye strain is really getting to me. My current prescription is sph 3.5 and cyl 0.75 for both eyes, but it used to be less without any cyl power, just 2.75. I haven't seen an eye doctor for a year and a half, but then three months ago, I had to get new glasses because mine broke. That's when they told me my eye power increased. Back before all the COVID stuff, I was outside a lot, playing cricket and barely using any screens, just reading books. But now, I'm inside all the time, staring at my phone for over 15 hours a day and not eating well either. I've started getting headaches around my eyes, eyebrows, and forehead, and my eyes feel so tired. I'm really trying to get my vision and overall eye health back on track. Any advice on what I can do?

Question

I'm having trouble seeing clearly with my left eye even when I use my glasses, and I can't seem to improve my vision beyond 66. This vision issue is causing me to get rejected from joining the forces. I've heard that LASIK surgery might be a solution. Could you give me some advice on how to tackle this problem? Any guidance would be really helpful.

Question

I've been dealing with this stye on my eye for over a week now, and it's really starting to get painful. Blinking is tough, and the irritation just won't go away. What should I do about it?
