Amblyopia and eye prescription
I have amblyopia. My prescription in my left eye is -13 and my right eye is 0. I am 30 years old. I have been wearing glasses since age 5. My prescription in my left eye started as -4. I haven't been wearing glasses for many years and I believe that is why my vision has gotten worse. Will it get any better or worse? What can I do?

in one eye --13 and in other eye --1.you can't accept glasses. if you have useful vision in left eye then please start using contact lens, so that you may avoid further deterioration. otherwise the vision is likely to be lost completely
