8 Signs You May Need New Glasses

People usually worry that wearing glasses will cause unnecessary embarrassment. Yes, it is undeniable. Sometimes it does encounter small troubles. But in fact, most people don't know when they need to wear glasses. Sometimes they may not even know that they have vision problems. Actually, a pair of glasses that suits you can not only bring you a stylish appearance, but also can be used to improve your eyesight and protect your eyes. Sometimes you may think: "Do I need glasses?" Having said that, if you suspect that you have a problem with your vision, please take it seriously. Because, it takes several years for some people to realize that they need glasses, and only know after using the vision test chart to test. In fact, many signs can simply tell you that you need to wear glasses. Let us explore these signs together. However, please remember that although these symptoms are easy to mention, seeing a doctor is the best way to figure out how to maintain your eyes and vision.

1. Blurred vision

Occasional slight blurred vision due to dry eyes or eye fatigue is common and may not require corrective glasses. However, persistent blurred vision may indicate that you are developing farsightedness, nearsightedness or astigmatism, which is also one of the most important signs that you need to wear glasses. Quite simply, do you feel strenuous when you are reading, watching a tablet or using a computer? In other words, are you unable to identify your companion from a few feet away? If the answer is yes, then this is a very obvious signal that your eyes are not working properly.

2. Frequent headaches

If your vision is not clear, you will unconsciously fatigue your eyes, make your eye muscles work harder, and cause headaches. Headaches after prolonged reading or watching TV may mean that you need to wear glasses.

3. Double vision

The condition of the cornea or eye muscles may cause both eyes. Other conditions such as cataracts and dry eyes are also related to double vision. If you have double vision, you should schedule an appointment with an optometrist.

4. Eye fatigue or weakness

Eye fatigue or weakness may be one of the early symptoms that you need to wear glasses. Please pay attention to whether looking at anything within a certain period of time will make your eyes tired. You need to squint or blink to focus your eyesight, and you can feel the symptoms of eye fatigue. If this happens, try to take a break or change the lighting in the room when you feel tired of your eyes. Generally, eye fatigue is caused by long-term use of the computer, difficulty in seeing clearly under dim light and strong light exposure. Other symptoms related to eye fatigue may be dizziness, blurred vision and headaches. If your eye fatigue persists, please consult an ophthalmologist to assess your need for glasses.

5. Difficult to read the computer screen

In fact, for computer workers, working in front of a computer screen for a long time is usually the main cause of eye fatigue and decreased vision. If you experience eye fatigue, blurred vision, or headaches while using a computer, remember that a good way to rest your eyes is to follow the 20-20-20 rule. Just observe an object 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes. If the vision changes are more severe, you may need to use anti-blue glasses or prescription glasses. However, we still recommend that you make an appointment with an optometrist so that they can provide you with the most suitable eye protection plan.

6. Night vision problems

Humans naturally do not have the best vision at night, but they should be clear enough to ensure safe driving or walking at night without any difficulty. If you find that your vision while driving or walking at night becomes more difficult or blurred than usual, you are in a danger zone. If your vision is blurred or there is halo around objects at night, you must keep this in mind when driving, walking, or other activities that require clear vision at night. Decreased night vision may be an early sign that you need to wear glasses or an early sign of cataracts. If you find that night vision is becoming more and more difficult, make sure to make an appointment with an ophthalmologist.

7. A change in style

What's wrong with buying a new pair of glasses for fashion. Give yourself some new frames or lenses that suit your other style. Different colors and shapes can be used to complement the shape of your face, so please find a style that makes your face likable and suits your style. Multi-style diversification, can also be used with fresh clothes. This will make people happy and full of energy.

8. Damaged lens

Severe wear of the lenses can actually damage the eyes, and serious deformation of the glasses may also affect vision. As we all know, the optical center of the lens must be aligned with the center of the pupil. If the lens is worn, the image will be unclear, which can easily cause strabismus and cause visual fatigue and other symptoms. Therefore, please avoid continuing to use damaged lenses.

# How do I know if my child needs to wear glasses?

Finally, a little knowledge about what kids might need to wear glasses. So there is a big problem here. As a parent, how do I know when my child needs to change and wear glasses with correct and good vision? Here are some little suggestions to help you decide whether your child needs to wear glasses.

1. Squint

Strabismus may indicate that your child has refractive errors. The refraction of the eye is not only a vision problem, it may also distort the sight of the eye, which can lead to visual impairment. Excessive or underdeveloped extraocular muscles. Abnormal attachment points of extraocular muscles and abnormal structure of orbital fascia can lead to imbalance of muscle strength and strabismus. Children with this type of problem may need to go through1 squint to better focus the light on the retina. When your child is squinting, he or she may simply suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. Fortunately, the prescription of children's glasses can correct most children's refractive errors, so there is no need to panic.

 

2. Tilt your head or compare one eye

In fact, children often imitate. This is one of the reasons why when we notice interesting habits, we tend to ignore them. One of these habits may be closing one eye or tilting your head while looking at something. For you, this may just be something your child learned from a favorite character in a children's pirate movie.

Actually, when children want to see something clearly, they often close one eye or tilt their head. This particular habit may be due to symptoms of laziness or eye asymmetry. These are also common eye problems in children. However, as long as you face this problem squarely and wear corrective glasses in time, this problem can be improved.

 

3. Too close to electronics

This is another question that can easily be considered enthusiasm. When a child likes a game or some cartoon show, they will watch it with all their attention, right? Well, this kind of attention shouldn't include sitting so close to the TV or holding the device so close to the eyes. If this happens frequently, it means that your child needs to take a myopia test. This is an eye condition, when things are blurred, they stay away. To remind you, this is also a refractive error.

 

4. Excessive rubbing of eyes

Although rubbing eyes may be a symptom of nervousness in children, it may indicate that they have been using eyes. Eye fatigue is also possible when your child has frequent pain, tears, or frequent headaches. Except for one problem, your child should not strain his eyes. When you start to feel that your child keeps making their eyes tight, you may need to equip your child with glasses.

Prevention is better than cure, and this usually applies to anything related to your health. Just like it is always recommended to see a general doctor or dentist regularly, so does the eyes. After all, your eyes are a window to the world, and nothing is more precious than this. It is generally recommended to have the first eye exam for children at six months, three years old, and every two years thereafter. Now that you know the main signs that you need to wear glasses, make sure to check immediately after experiencing any of the symptoms we mentioned above. If you already know that you need a pair of prescription glasses, you have come to the right place!
