Question

 

 

Hi,

Can my astigmatism and nearsighted vision be corrected with eye glasses.

Will my eye damage more if I don't put continuously my eyeglasses? Should I put eyeglasses everytime?

Can I replace eyeglasses with contact lenses? Is there high risk of infection or something else?

Thanks

 

Answer

Thanks for your Question

You can use eyeglasses or contact lenses to correct these refractive errors but you should take special care to clean your contact lenses to prevent infection and other complications.

Wearing eyeglasses will help you see better and prevent eye strain but it wont stabilize your vision.
