This is a very weak prescription for astigmatism, 0.25 is the smallest amount they even bother with. If you get the glasses, they will help your vision (near & far), but it will not be a huge difference. I would suggest getting the cheapest glasses you can find (such as on-line at www.zennioptical.com or www.glassesshop.com, or elsewhere). This way, if you find they don't make much of a difference, and you don't wear them much, you haven't spent a ton of money for no reason. If you find you do use them a lot, you can always get nice designer ones later on, if desired.



No you don't have to wear glasses. You have on average -0.12 for your right eye which is almost undetectable. The problems you describe are not due to a minute amount of shortsightedness (myopia). Wearing glasses will not help with anything other than making it appear any visual problem has disappeared (which actually hasn't.) Your NEAR sight will be definitely worse off if you choose to wear these glasses. All distance glasses and soft contact lenses are designed to create a gentle hyperopic blur in the periphery of your vision This has been 100% linked to myopia progression. Enough studies have been done to confirm this.

I have a similar problem with my vision being worse on the 180 axis (horizontal line). If you are young its advisable to check your eyes can turn left and right easily. You should be able to turn the eyes to the side and hold them comfortably in that position and see whatever your eyes are pointing at 100% clearly. If you are tense or stressed you will notice a deterioration in your ability to do this.

Also to be on the safe side check your balance and posture is 100% ok. YouTube has free videos for you to check out. Poor balance and a problem called 'forward head posture' are common these days and are dangerous for the well-being of people. Poor balance and poor posture cause a massive strain on the body and mind.

Well, based on your vision, I would say no. However, it sounds like your eyes are strained and tired constantly. This is why you got glasses. It would probably be good to wear them most of the time so your eyes will feel better.



there are so many online optical stores, and most of them have online customer service, you can chat with them, they can help you.
