I went to my optometrist today because I
have been having vision problems: high
contrast numbers (like black numbers on
white background) are blurry at a
distance, and seeing fine print from a
distance is very difficult.
The optometrist I went to could not
refract my vision to 20/20. I could not
make out the chart and he was very upset.
He kept asking me "what do you think the
letters are" and I would guess and he said
"don't guess" and I said I cant see them.
He kept saying that since I haven't worn
glasses and been wearing contacts for so
many years my muscles in the eyes have
become lazy. Is there anything that can
be done for this? He has referred me to
an opthamologist, and said frankly he has
never had this happen before. Any insight
as to what can be causing this, or has
anyone had this problem?
