I've been wearing glasses since I was 9 and switched to contact lenses for the past 6 years. My eyesight keeps getting worse every year right now, my left eye is SPH 8.00 CYL 1.75 AX 140 BC 8.7 DIA 14.5 and my right eye is SPH 8.00 CYL 1.25 AX 030 BC 8.7 DIA 14.5. I'm really worried because I can't imagine living without contacts. Is there any way to stop my vision from worsening or even improve it? I'm 21 now are there any surgery options that could help fix this?

View allIn my recent eye exam, I noticed that my vision power has decreased from 4.00 to 3.5 in both eyes, and I've been told there's a cylindrical power of 1 in both eyes now. I'm wondering if it's a good or bad thing that my vision power went down like this without any treatment or surgery. Also, if I start wearing glasses with the prescribed cylindrical power, is there a chance that the cylindrical issue will improve over time?
It is generally a good sign that your refractive power has decreased without any treatment or surgery, as it may indicate natural changes in your eyes. To address the cylindrical power in both eyes, wearing eyeglasses with the prescribed CYL power can help correct your vision and reduce the impact of astigmatism. Over time, wearing the prescribed eyeglasses consistently may help in managing and potentially reducing the cylindrical power. Regular follow-up with your eye care provider is important to monitor any changes in your vision and adjust your prescription as needed.

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?
Your vision can be improved with surgery such as LASIK or ICL, especially if progression stops. Follow-up is essential to monitor long-term stability.

After getting c3r surgery done, how long will my eye power stay stable? Will it last for a few years or is it permanent for life? Need to know because I'm planning to get it done
