Can the wrong prescription of glasses cause visual disturbance?

Causes blur: If the prescription in your eyeglasses is wrong or out of date, you will not see as well but you will do no harm to the eyes. Your eyes will function as best as they can under any circumstances, even with the wrong prescription.
