Left eye with -0.25 and Right eye -3
My right eye vision is getting worse.Since my left eye is fine and specs with high power in my right eye is causing double vision, the optometerist suggested me to go for -2.5. But I dont have 6/6 vision with -2.5. I don't have any genetic problem or undergoing any medical problem. I am worried why it can be. I got my eyes throughly examined last year but the doctor said everything was fine. Is there any way my right eye can be improved? My eye sight was perfect till 4-5 years back when I started wearing glasses.
