Yes brother will follow these precautions. Thank you. I believe my no. has increased due to so kuch mobile phone usage only
if it increases more, your eyes will start watering and wouldn’t stop for 1or 2 hours or more(or you might be already facing this issue). you wouldn’t have any control over it .. Better to change your habits
Not facing such problems for now. will try to take precautions now
Hope this helps.
The only thing to worry about is fluctuating power at this age. I know people with -5 to -8 but it should remains more or less constant after 20-21 age. Yours have changed after 22age. Otherwise -3 is not high power to be worried about. If u think your glasses look thick, u can get high index glasses.
Try to give your eyes sufficient rest and frequent breaks.
A year ago it was 2 now its minus 3, was worried if it changes further that quickly. But since many dimers have told about their eye powers and gave some tips as well . Now i am feeling comfortable 
The numbers you are dealing with is ok, not bad. My eye sight is at -3.25. I’m myopic from my 9th standard. I don’t remember the numbers in the beginning, certainly it got worse, but is consistent from my 12th standard. That is likely due to food and other habits. Now the only time I’m without glasses is during sleep, and bath. Otherwise, they are on always.
I know of a friend from 7th standard, and he is -10ish from his birth.
Here are some things you may include in your list if not already done.
- Include veggies in your diet as much as possible. I will let you google teach you on which veggies.
- Most importantly, take stress out of your list. Any amount of care you take can be nullified if you are taking much stress in any form.
- Do verify the numbers by getting tested at atleast 2 clinics. Most of the times people get confused during the course of testing. If you struggling to read/watch with glasses, do not neglect that. Talk to the doctor you are consulting, and sort it out
I read somewhere on google that after 21-22 our number becomes stable and doesn’t change much. but i think thats different for everyone and thanks for the advice bro
Vegetarian?
i have -7 and in one eye -6.5. started from 0.5 on 7th std. currently I am 32 age, gradually increased due to max use of reading, laptop. Now it’s more or less stable from last couple of years. I am living normally. ntn to worry about just try to don’t increase it. My friend had -8, he got surgery and removed the number.
Mine also increased due to high use of mobile phone especially since last year covid lockdown. First i got worried seeing – 3, will now start following certain precautions and also will try to limit my screen usage without rest.
Mine is -3 as well but I am neither that young nor worried about it. I am ok using prescription glasses as long as they don’t turn out to be bifocal. One I am compelled to wear bifocal I would opt for LASIK.
If budget permits, check the super thin lens on lenskart. These are well worth it and makes the glass super thin and light.
I ordered these lenses only from lenskart after reading much about their benefits. Without my glasses can’t even see time in wall clock clearly.
Does lasik is safe for longer period of times ? Does one should go for lasik if money is not the issue ?
Yes bro you need to worry about that. -3 is very bad at this age consult doctor immediately. I have -0.75 and i wear glasses all the time except during sleep and bath.
Precautions to follow
1. Avoide use of phone in dark always turn on light while using phone
2. Never use phone while lying on bed it can cause rotation in eye ball
3. Keep your eyes wet and wash then with water
4. Use 20-20-20 rule
With this your power will become stable and it will not increase further
