The normal dynamic eye moved negative because of long term close work, and because of the minus lens used to fix the first self induced problem.

I became slightly myopic when I was 11, I refused to wear glasses and my myopia practically didnt progress for many years, got contact lenses during university, and then my vision started really go down, to -5 when it finally stopped when I was ca 25.

Hi Lumen Optometric,
I thank you for posting Dr. Earl Smith III, report on the effect that a single minus lens has on the refractive state of the normal eye!
That is a real learning process and education!

Ooooh! I've never had or needed glasses😳👁👁, and now I'm *_even more_* thankful this is the case! My lovely wife got her first glasses last June (she looks very cute with them), and when she tries to explain to me why she has them, I, as someone with perfect eyesight, just get more & more confused.😲

Are there special types of spectacles or lens that can be worn to minus the effect of phone use effect on eyes? For people working on mobile phones and computers 24/7 and about me too as a software engineer

Then why do doctors recommend to wear glasses even if you have -0.25 dont they know the consequences?

Is it possible for a 28 year old to have myopia now? I'm 28 years old and I've already had tests and had perfect vision, but after the quarantine my vision got bad at night and the ophthalmologist says I have myopia -1.25. I started wearing glasses and today it has increased to -1.75. Is this possible, because I thought myopia was a thing for teenagers?

So that’s why as I get older I can’t see anything anymore 💀

[yvesnasrallah]

so interesting, can you please provide me with evidence-based articles on how traditionnal glasses make myopia worse ? Thank you

[glamgirl]

basically we should not use glasses we should just take some exercise since it helps us to improve a little

[ssmisc.]

So the child shouldn't get the glasses?

[ahmedmohammad]

Fuck

But thankyou for being a source of knowledge. 😊

[thortremble]

Why does the brain elongate the eye when the focus is already on the retina (before elongation in the video)? I don't understand that. Shouldn't the vision already be clear because the focal point from the light is already on the retina?

The solution to this issue is Hoya Miyosmart lens with DIMS technology. It stops myopia progression in children by 60%

[Godly_Yami]

So i should stop wear a glasses? I am only 16. And don't wanna wear glasses my whole life. Will it be fixed?

[phineas]

But what about people who has corrected it with daily exercises and taking health care products and precautions there are many examples of people who has corrected the disorder in their young age only so they don't have to suffer in adult stage
