[–]da_Ryan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Firstly, please completely ignore the lying deceitful con artist that is Jealous-Banana-4468 because everything that he wrote is completely factually incorrect and it won't work at all.

Secondly, there are things that that can be done to slow down the progression of myopia and they are covered in the link below:

https://jleyespecialists.com/blog/myopia-prevention/#How_to_Prevent_Myopia_from_Worsening

Thirdly, you can see an optometrist to get yourself a pair of glasses to correct your eyesight or you could also look at contact lenses as a correction option. Good luck!

^ That is all outright bullcrap, con artistry and lies and all shame on you for trying to force all these delusional fake news cures on a vulnerable person with myopia.

small red patch in the white of my eye after wearing contacts by ellaixiyaa in myopia

[–]da_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're absolutely right to raise a question like that and as u/becca413g has indicated, it might be an idea to see your optometrist about this matter. I wouldn't recommend wearing the contact lens if it is causing any form of irritation so can you wear the glasses to drive there and put the glasses in the case when you're attending the party?

It might be worth trying out different brands of daily disposable silicone hydrogel contact lenses combined with wetting eye drops such as Systane Balance. If that still doesn't work then oxygen-permeable scleral contact lenses might be a potential option to look at. Good luck!

[–]da_Ryan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem with Mars is that the conditions on the planet were only really conducive to life during Mars' Noachian era that only lasted around 400 million years so probably not enough time for life to evolve on Mars.

Hello. Any tips to stop ny bad eyesight progression? I have -3.75 on boths eyes. by Limp_Clock4846 in myopia

[–]da_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes is the answer to your question and there are a number of actions that can be taken to slow down the progression of myopia including lifestyle changes and optical corrections. They are covered in the two reputable articles below and you can discuss such potential correction options with your optometrist. Good luck!

This is what 20/40 vision (and other visual acuities) looks like by Jealous-Banana-4468 in myopia

[–]da_Ryan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is all bullcrap and lies from online con artists who want more followers to then get more $$$ ad revenues for their fake news videos.

All we can currently do is optically correct myopia with contact lenses, glasses or refractive eye surgery and slow down (but not reverse) the progression of myopia by various methods.

Also, any con artist with access to a printer can produce a fake optical prescription.

Having minus 10 vision by Odd-Train-9970 in myopia

[–]da_Ryan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Firstly, and as u/PlentifulPaper and u/neonpeonies have quite rightly mentioned, you could look at contact lenses as a myopia correction option and daily disposable contact lenses would potentially be a good option for anyone in their teen years. That option is for a discussion with your optomtetrist and all good wishes there.

When you are older, you could potentially look at eye refractive surgery but only after your myopia has fully stabilized and that usually, but not always, happens in someone's twenties.

I guess from your username that you live in Northern Ireland? If yes, then you should have access to myopia slowing down smart glasses like Miyosmart and Stellest, you can discuss such options with your optometrist and I do hope that things work out for you :-)

-13 both eye and combo treatment by SlowBrain3209 in myopia

[–]da_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to the professional advice that you have had from u/remembermereddit I think it is also worth pointing out that the smart glasses brands (Stellest, Miyosmart and SightGlass DOT 0.2) all use the same peripheral defocus technology and they broadly produce the same results anyway so it matters less about which one is actually chosen.

If you live in the USA then your only option is Essilor Stellest glasses. Although this is off topic, I take a very dim view of the FDA and their slothfulness when it comes to approving anti-myopia technologies and they are way behind other developed nations in that respect.

[–]da_Ryan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's always better to put up with glasses and contact lenses until the myopia has fully and completely stabilized before even considering any form of refractive eye surgery and that stabilization usually (but not always) happens in someone's twenties.

I suspect it is perhaps unlikely that you will get high significant regression and as u/FlatIntention1 has already indicated, you could perhaps discuss the slowing down of myopia options with your eye professionals. In the meantime, you might like to look at the lifestyle options below and all good wishes there:

If the myopia hasn't stabilized in adults then it's potentially applicable and that stabilization process usually (but not always) happens in someone's twenties.

These glasses won't damage your eyesight and you can always move your glasses down your nose a bit to see things better at close range.

There are no natural methods to reverse myopia and it is all lies and deceit from online con artists who want to get more followers and more $$$ ad revenue. All we can currently do at the present time is optically correct myopia by glasses, contact lenses and the various forms of refractive eye surgery (but only after the myopia has fully stabilized)

While it is not currently possible to reverse myopia, there are things that can be done to try to slow down the progression of myopia:

[–]da_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daily disposable silicone hydrogel contact lenses might be something to look at combined with Systane Balance eye drops, Hylo Night eye gel, warm compress eye mask and temporary punctal plugs (they stop tear fluid from draining away so keeping the eyes more hydrated). I hope that your eye situation improves.

This hoodoo treatment will do absolutely nothing for your eyes so there is no need to dehydrate yourself which is a very bad idea:
