There is nothing serious. Your eye pressure(IOP)Is normal. You are myopic hence your distance vision Is very low ie 5/60 that means you can see a particular object as near as 5 mts but a normal person can see it from a distance of 60 mts..but with glasses as prescribed  your vision is normal. So you must use glasses as prescribed or if you don't want to use specs you can get lasik operation done.
