Regarding Vision
I'm 19yo.I started wearing specs recently 2 months back for the first time.I got a prescription of only cylindrical power which is -0.5D in Right Eye and -0.25D in Left Eye.The very next day of getting this prescription I went for a second consultation and I got again a cylindrical number only but a prescription of -0.75D in both the eyes.Since then,I have constantly been using specs.It was difficult adjusting in the start but then it got better.But recently since last 3-4 days I have been feeling a little weird.Firstly, my eyes are burning and secondly I have a headache around the temple area of only my Right Eyebrow.So this headache is sometimes with spectacles on and it goes away when I remove specs. Sometime it comes up when I'm not wearing specs but goes away when I wear them.It is weird.And it mostly happens when using a Screen like Laptop or Mob.Should I wear specs all the time?If I don't wear them all the time will by eyesight get weaker? It is better without specs sometimes.
