Eye Glasses help needed?!


Question: Eye Glasses help needed?
ok so i have an eye appointment tomorrow
but the reason i have one is that when taking notes in school i noticed some times after i looked away form the board and had to look again it would take seconds to re focus and it was always somewhat burry.

but one of my friends who had glasses, told me to try his and when i did i can see way more clearly and it wasent blurry at all.
so im wondering would i need glasses even if my vision is off by very little?
im talking about long-sight vision.

Are you bothered when you look up at the board in school and can't see clearly immediately?

Then yes, you need glasses if it bothers you.

However, this is the whole point of getting an eye exam. The eye doctor (optometrist) will examine your vision to see if you need glasses, to make sure all the other parts of your vision is working properly (like your focusing system, for example, among other things) and also to make sure your eye is healthy. Just because you can see just fine, does not always mean your eyes are healthy as there are many eye diseases that do not have symptoms and therefore you don't know you have unless you have an eye exam!

So let the doctor do their job tomorrow! They will tell you if you need glasses or not. Just be honest with them and describe the issue you are having.

I am an optometry intern.
