A member asked:
I am myopic. i got glasses last year. i can't see well out of my glasses anymore. is it possible that eyesight has gotten worse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: People tend to get nearsighted between say the ages of 5 and 15. It tends to progress until the late teens or early 20s and then stabilizes. I would suggest getting your eyes checked again. You may need stronger glasses.
