Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 18 years old and I have spectacles. I have a disturbed vision. Do I have any retinal issues? Kindly help.

Answered by Dr. Manish Mahabir

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query.

I understand your concern. When was the last time you got your eyes checked? It might just be an issue of change in your power of glasses. Another issue might be vitreous degeneration which happens early in myopes or people who wear negative power glasses. I hope this has helped you. Thank you.

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