Is this normal......?!

Question: Is this normal......?

Ok well im 14 and i dont know if this is normal. Sometimes when i read, i feel like im going cross eyed. I mean the words aren't blurry. But it's kind of hard to focus on the words cause it kind of looks like there blending together. But i can still read it. I noticed it's when the book is farther away from me. Like we we're reading a story out of our textbook in english and i had the book on my desk and i was leaned back in my chair. It was kind of harder to read so i put the book in my lap and put the book closer to my face and it was normal again. So i mean is this normal? Cause i dont want to go to the eye doctor and have them tell me i have 20/20 vision.

Answers:

It sounds like you're near sighted, that is, you see better close-up than you do from far away. If the words are blending together, you may have astigmatism. But I would definitely go to the eye doctors. Most of the time they'll just suggest reading glasses.

Haha, no. That is not normal. Obviously there is soooomething wrong with your eyes. I'd get them checked out.

Sometimes my eyes get exhausted near the end of the semester. However, I'm in law school. I read a ton. I suspect it isn't the same for a 14 year old.

You may need some glasses..best go see the doc!

You will need glasses Honey.
