A member asked:
If only one of my eyes is blurry, do i need to get glasses?

Monocular blurriness: There are many possible causes for decreased vision. A need for glasses is certainly one of them, and it is possible to have a refractive error in one eye only. A complete eye exam is the best way to have this evaluated.

Consider this: Your brain will decide whether your one eye blurriness is a problem. It can decide to ignore the input from one eye, to have a clear image. If it does so over a long period of time (years) the brain can turn off most of the information coming from that eye. The visual loss is called amblyopia (lazy eye). Only a good eye exam and consultation with your eye doc can decide this for you.
