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?

Eye pain and head shaking have been bothering me lately, and I'm seeing floaters in my vision. I got my eyes checked 3 months ago my prescription is right eye 5.0 with 1.50 cylinder at 90 axis, left eye 5.25 with 1.25 cylinder at 90 axis. The doctor said my number is right, but I'm still having issues. Would laser eye surgery help in my case, and if so, how much would it cost?
