Is it really necessary for me to wear glasses if I'm working on a computer for 8 hours a day, given my age of 46? I just had my eyes tested and my near vision is 1.25, but my long vision is normal. They said I should start wearing glasses to avoid affecting my eyesight. I'm already using a blue light filter on my laptop and trying some home remedies like splashing water on my eyes in the morning and ensuring my workspace has good ventilation with sunlight and fresh air. I'm hoping to avoid glassesare there any alternatives I should consider?

View allI'm really worried about my mom. I took her for an eye checkup a while back because she was experiencing intense itching in her eyes. The doctor then mentioned something about poor blood circulation in her eyes and sent us home. That itching never really went away and now, after four years, she's developed cataracts in one eye and can't see out of it. Today, we found out there's pus in that eye, and the doctor said they can't operate because if it bursts, her pain will be unbearable. What should I do? How can we improve the blood circulation in her eyes?

I'm a bit puzzled and could really use some advice. My previous prescription was RE 4.25 and LE 3.75. When I went to Lenskart for new glasses due to scratches on my current pair, they said my right eye power is now 4.5. Given that my power is already high and I don't feel any discomfort, should I actually switch to this new prescription? Also, I've always used regular fiber lenses without the blue ray coating that I got from another store. Is it necessary to switch to blue ray lenses now, especially since I spend the whole day working on a computer? Lastly, I just learned about cylindrical power being different too. Does this mean I need a completely different prescription for my specs?
