since i was 15 my prescription was -5.50, so my eyes a little bit worse-- so I know what you are going through when you dont have on glasses or contacts.
my eye sight hasnt changed since i was 15, tho :)

Hi , I was interested in your question. I have to tell you that both my parents noticed their eyesight deteriorate over time and had to wear glasses. They were considering laser surgery but were advised to try natural remedies first. They read an article called How To Restore Your Eyesight Without Surgery. They took the advice, did the recommended eye exercises and were delighted with the results. Neither of them wear glasses anymore! I can't say if it will work for you, but it's a fascinating read and teaches alot about how to look after your eyes. Apparently my parents experience is quite typical. You might like to give it a try aswell - it can't do any harm!
I wish you good luck.

I had worse eyesight than that at 21 ( given that there should probably be a - in front). In my 50's my eyesight is a bit worse but to be honest once you hit the point you can't manage wihtout glasses it doesn't really matter if your eyesight gets a bit worse other than havign to pay otu for new glasses. As with you i just can't manage without. I guess you would have the option of surgery as well. I used to worry terribly about this but now Im older I can see there was no real need
Six years ago, you were 15. It is common for vision to shift through the teen years. This is a result of your eyeballs growing, just like the rest of you grows.
At 21, your vision should be fairly stable.
Positive numbers indicate farsightedness. Negative numbers indicate nearsightedness. If you were that farsighted at a young age, you would still see fairly well, so I suspect that you are actually nearsighted ( -4.00 and -4.20 ).
As you get older, you will need bifocals, but that is just part of getting older. You have plenty of time before that starts.
