Blurry but all the time and it's doing my head in lol should i see optician or doctor, should i be concerned?

See eye doctor: Blurry vision, especially of recent onset, needs investigation by an ophthalmologist. It may just be a need for glasses but could be an early sign of more serious conditions that need treatment. Opticians are not doctors; optometrists are limited in scope. An ophthalmologist is your best option.
