Im shortsighted! :(?!
Question: im 14 atm, and ive had 100% vision since i was 11.
I started using the computer alot when i was 12 and i had no problems until the start of this year when i went for a check-up he said i had become short sighted and idk how these numbers work but he said my eye sight was -2.25
and when he told my mum she straight away jumped to the conclusion that its from the computer but then the optomistrist said that sometimes during puberty because of the growth spurt some people can become short sighted and that it will wear off.
Is this true, Could Myopia be caused by adolesence and will i have 20/20 vision again!?!?
i have glasses but i hardly wear them, maybe a couples times a week in school when its hard to see the white board but thats about it.

mines a 2.25 in both eyes and cant see from distance.
you should wear glasses whenever u need them ,even if ur at the computer or watching television, and try and spend less time on computer to let your eyes rest, i wear them at school when i need to see my teacher lipread and to read whiteboard.
EDIT: i am short sighted with glasses i mean, sorry i was in school typing this and the keyboards are hard to use!!!
It is easy and understandable for your mother to jump to the conclusion that your computer is to blame. I think it's very unlikely. You would have become short-sighted no matter what.
My own experience was similar - became short sighted in early adolescence. I think it's because my father is, and his father before him. It's hereditary.
Unfortunately, I don't think it'll wear off when adolescence is over. It might get worse while you are still an adolescent, and then stay the same when you reach full adulthood.
You will probably need to wear your glasses more and more.
Sorry to give you bad news, but it's just something you get used to.
