Help every1, Blurry vision at far?!?!
Question: Help every1, Blurry vision at far?!?
It's my first question ever, but I really need your help on this one guys!
I have been a gamer for a long time, I'm 14 years old going 15, I always had Perfect vision, I did a checkup 7 months ago and my vision was perfect. But for 1 month now I have been experiencing bad vision -at far only- , and I don't know why! Here's my symptoms:
-Blurry vision (at far)
-Some kind of "Halos" around lights (I notice it at far and in dark places)
I have no headaches, my eyes don't hurt and stuff like that, but I'm really worried. My friends tell me not to worry about it, "You're just tired, that's all"; "It will pass, don't worry!". But it's not getting any better, I stayed 1 week away from the PC, mobile, etc.. but I didn't notice any changes :'(
I spend about 3 hours a day on the computer, and at weekends about 6. (I know I know it's a lot but keep reading..) I never suffered from such eye problems, why am I having these problems now? I spend much more time on the computer when it's Summer and I never got this! Please help! (I don't think that glasses will work)
Thanks for reading every1, I rly need help! If you need more details just tell me, do you think that I only need to rest more, or something?
Thanks again!

Eyesight can change rapidly especially at your age, and it's clear that now you don't have the same eyesight you had 7 months ago. What you're describing is nearsightedness and it frequently develops at your age. You should definitely spend less time on the computer,tv, books, and so on, not just now but for the next 10 years , because nearsightedness tends to get worse easily until mid 20s, so you have to change your lifestyle as much as possible.
The fact that you spend more time on the computer in Summer doesn't mean anything, because nearsightedness is the result of a prolonged eye-strain that can last years before eyesight gets worse.
you probably ARE nearsighted, even if your vision was perfect at your exam 7mo ago. you are very accurately describing myopia.
or possibly pseudomyopia, or temporary myopia brought on by constant computer use. carrots & vit A will not help

You're near sighted. Sitting from 5-10 feet in front of a TV for a long period of time will cause this. You are probably going to need glasses and if you don't want glasses then eat a lot of Vitamin A, i.e.: carrots (raw is best).
