A member asked:
I have mild myopia, do i need glasses?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: It depends on your visual symptoms. Very mild myopia may not require glasses if you find no visual discomfort or impairment without glasses. Often, part-time glasses for certain activities such as night driving or movies do help to make patients more comfortable.
