I'm Velmurugan, I'm 28 and from Chennai. After finishing college, I've been running a textile business for the past six years. But for the last year, I've been experiencing these blackouts whenever I focus on something like a book or a face. So, I went to a well-known eye hospital, and they told me its dry macular degeneration. The doctor mentioned there's no cure and I just have to live with it. Is there any hope or anything I can do about this? I've attached the scan reports too. Can someone guide me on possible treatments or actions I should take? I'm really worried about this and would appreciate any advice.

My doctor gave me a prescription for my glasses with these details: Right Eye is 2.25 spherical, 1.50 cylindrical with an axis of 170, and the Left Eye is 2.75 spherical and 1.25 cylindrical with an axis of 10. But the specs I got made by the company have the Right Eye at 2.25 spherical, 1.50 cylindrical with an axis of 160, and the Left Eye at 2.75 spherical and 1.25 cylindrical with an axis of 180. I'm wondering, will this change in axis affect my vision in any way? Should I continue using these specs or should I get them corrected to match my prescription?

I've been struggling with crossed eyes and I'm really worried about it. Are there any specific exercises or treatments that can help align my eyes properly? I'm looking for suggestions on what I can do at home.

Crossed eyes, or strabismus, can sometimes be corrected with eye exercises, but it's important to first consult with an eye specialist. Exercises like focusing on a near object and alternating focus between near and far objects may help, but treatment varies based on the cause. A doctor might also recommend corrective lenses or surgery in some cases.
