Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 22-year-old female. I got to know a few days before that I had myopia in my left eye of one dioptre. I have already started using the spectacles. Will it affect my right eye? What is the natural way of healing it?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

There is no natural way to heal it as you are already 22 years old. It can heal naturally in children below eight years if they wear spectacles constantly. Your left eye myopia will not affect your right eye, so do not worry as there is no problem with using spectacles. If you do not wear them, you might have difficulty.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
