Did everyone miss my point? I didn’t grow up stuck inside so often, I spent a LOT of time outdoors. Hell, the first book I ever read was a survival manual.
I even learned to drive a stick shift at age 7, before I even got glasses. So I still stand by the opinion that indoor vs outdoor environment makes fuckall nothing to do with nearsightedness.
You’re either born with it or you aren’t. It’s all about the shape of the eye.
I spent more time outdoors than indoors.
Yep. My first diagnosis was -3.5 for the left, -3.75 for the right. Yes it degrades over time. Very slowly though.
These days, I find that my outdated lenses do better than my recent lenses, when I use my old left lens for my right eye.
