• Is the chance less for nearsighted people to become presbyopia when they're old?

  It is not the lasik cause the older people suffer Presbyopia, it is because their lens of the eye change in shape more for near objects than for far objects so as the lens hardens, so it's more difficult to focus on objects that are near. In a sense, nearsighted people are less likely to suffer farsightedness than others.

• Do you feel pressured in your head when not wearing glasses?

  It is possible if you have vision problems, such as nearsighted or farsighted, Headaches may accour without wearing eyeglasses and this pain will be aggravated if your eyes feel strain, for example, reading or watch TV too much.

• Why can I see tiny small coloured dots move around?

  Yeah, it is common to some extent. Colored dots maybe caused by the special coatings on your glasses, especially when you look through sunlight. Small distortions is also common when looking through lenses, especially if you have strong prescription.If you still feel uncomfortable, you can go back to your eye doctor to check if there is something wrong with your prescription.

• Should I wear glasses all the time if I have astigmatism?

  I've got astigmatism and farsightedness and have been wearing glasses all the time as what my doctor suggested me. Everytime when I remove my glasses I cannot see clearly even the near things. Maybe not to wear them if you have astigmatism will get you a worse vision.

• Why is my my vision partially blocked by headaches sometimes?

  If you get headache first,then accompanied by loss of vision,it possibly can be migraine.You'd better go to see your doctor.

• Are the eye muscles that cause astigmatic?

  Eye muscles is not realted to astigmatic, instead of that, the irregular shape of cornea or lens can cause astigmatic. 1. If the cornea does not curve perfectly - if one half is flatter or steeper than the other - the light that hits it will not refract properly and the retina at the back of the eye will receive an imperfect image. The person will have blurred vision from that eye - astigmatism.2. The lens has variations in its curvature, rather than having a perfect curve, causing images to reach the back of the eye (retina) imperfectly. Most patients with lenticular astigmatism have a normally shaped cornea - the defect is only in the curvature of the lens. Source:http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/158810.php.
