A member asked:

My eye doctor told me my eyes shrank... is there any way i could make them back to their old size?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not shrunk: If you are nearsighted and you prescription was reduced, you may have misunderstood what you doctor said. Actual shrinking of the eye (phthisi) is a pathologic condition, usually due to trauma, or sometimes multiple surgical procedures
