I have 660 vision in my left eye with glasses and 69 vision in my right eye with glasses. My left eye has a power of 7D and my right eye is 2.75D. I'm 16 years old and really worried can this be fixed with surgery or will I have to live with this forever? Also, will my right eye keep getting worse over time? Am I at risk of going blind in both eyes as I get older?
