Hi Users,
i'm a 18 year old male currently in ITE 2nd year and i've been putting on glasses for eternity; 6-18 year old. I look good without the spectacle on which led me to discover more on how about can i cure Myopia. My degree for my left eye checked is 100 Degree while my right eye is 200 degree. Is the degree still under the least damaged or have gradually climbed to medium/High probability for vision loss and possible glaucauma or retina detachment diseas in the long term especially after 20 years old. I'm feeling eerie for the time being because i don't wish to put on glasses for the rest of my life. I don't want to be blind in the mere future. Is there any cure for myopia through eye exercises? i've surfed the net and most cures require you to buy a book which seems ostensible. Any possible cure would be either LASIK or Contact lenses but i don't want both of them, i want my god given eyesight to be able to recover from this ailing myopia which i'm facing in my life. My self-esteem was affected because some classified me as 'nerds' because of my outstanding grades in school. My parents told me that to recover one's vision to 20/20 is to stop wearing glasses and be blind to everywhere you go? is that true? I tried the 'Palming' method but i'm not sure if i do it properly.
Please help me with this, this is probably the biggest hurdle of my life knowing the fact the eye is the great of all organ even though it is timid and hidden.
I wish to recover from Myopia completely.. is there by any chance can i get regain my vision :'(....
yr eyeballs is oval, place an heavy object on yr eyes to make it round again
I have been wearing spectacles for the past 14 years with a degreeof >500, and no vision lost.
Stop whinning, it's just glasses. Be thankful that you still can see without spectacles minus not seeing some text from far away. Rather than knocking things over.
Yes there is a Lasik option, and the contact lense option.
No you will not go blind unless you start placing heavy weights on your eyeball to reshape it.
I personally recommend working with glasses and contacts and not the lasik option. Vision is very important and all surgical procedures carry a degree of risk. If you lose vision for the sake of perfect vision, your employment in future will be affected. Not a good trade off.
theoretically, reshaping the eyeball is correct

dun u know lasik is reshaping the eyeball?
100, 200 degree only. not much of a big deal, so why spend so much time, money, and risk complications to fix slight myopia?
lasik is basically cutting away of tissues so that your eyeball will have normal refraction, and this makes the cutted tissue thinner normal.
so maybe in your later years, you kena other eye problem, such as cataract, doctors might not be able to operate on your eyes again, as there will be a risk of the thinned tissue bursting.
i 250/250 leh i nvr complaint sia i try to maintain it
TS you are over-worrying. 100/200 nia. Peanuts, man.
You want to look good to chio girls, right ? haha
As long as you maintain good reading habits, not over strain your eyes, take regular breaks in between study time, eyesight should maintain. Then if/when you have the money, you may opt to go for lasik considering the risks, etc involved.
Your parents' advice to "stop wearing glasses and be blind everywhere you go" is flawed. If you don't wear corrective lenses and strain your eyes to see, your eyesight will deteriorate.
Afraid no cure....there's treatment like lasik but you don't want it...glaucoma and retinal detachment are complications but rare especially in your case...don't get paranoid
