Way back in 2015 my eyes were diagnosed to have 50 grades on the left and 100 grades on the right. According to the ophthalmologist, the grades of my eyes was not yet higher, it can be corrected by using correctional glasses.
I was worked as front end cashier at the department store of SM Mega Mall way back, SM is strict when it comes to pleasing personality with their personnel especially the front liners at that time (I don't know if it changes now). They don't allow front liners to wear glasses, contact lenses only. I ask the opthalmologist if I can replace correctional glasses to contact lens since my current job does not allow us to wear glasses but he said iI shouldn't wear contact lens as it will irritate my eyes more especially if I am not used to it.
I did not say yes to have correctional glasses yet, after the check-up is done I told the opthalmologist to let me reconsider it first since it will conflict with my current job requirements. I was sad at that time, I don't want to wear glasses I am not comfortable with it although the doctor said it will only take few months to wear then I can take it off once my grade vision is corrected. I am also not convinced that it will be corrected because as I observed once you wear glasses with grades the longer you wear the grade will get higher and higher, you will just change the glasses grades and will wear glasses lifetime (I am not so sure but this is my observations to all who wear glasses).
Symptoms I experienced before knowing the grades of my eyes
My vision becomes blurry- 20 ft. or more I cannot see the face of people.
Cloudy eyes- my eyes seem so cloudy that made my vision blurred
Behind my eyeball was sore- behind my eyeballs were feeling sore, especially when it is exposed to radiation (cp and pos monitor)
Continues headaches - my head hurts even without a fever.
Reverse numbers- As I said I was currently working as a cashier at that time, every time I give change I had mistakes good thing I double-check it before giving to the customers. For example, the change is 95, I will get 59 because I saw the number reverse.
I was afraid when those symptoms appear because I ask my supervisor about it and she said I should have a check-up or else I get blind, it made me worried so I had my check-up. Only to find out she was just exaggerating lol. I asked the doctor why I am seeing reverse numbers and sometimes letters, according to him it is because the grades of my eyes are different both are seeing the numbers or letters different at first glance, they don't coincide because of the grade differences.
How did I manage to get back my 20/20 vision without wearing correctional glass?
As I said I didn't say yes to correctional glasses so I find ways to have some remedy to refresh my eyes.
I rested my eyes - During 8 hours of duty I keep facing the POS (point of sale) monitor but I started to keep my distance from it. If no customers, I didn't face the monitor. After work or any vacant, I limit myself to used gadgets such as laptops or cellphones for two weeks.
I sleep early - I sleep early so my eyes can rest from stress and to have enough rest.
I washed my face with warm water - washing your face with warm water will help your optic nerves to relax. Do not wash your face especially if you are exposed to radiation. Let your eyes rest for a while before washing it with warm water.
I bought an Eye Mo or Visen- I bought an Eye Mo or Visen (brand name of Eye Mo solution) in Mercury drugstore, it will cleanse your eyes. I will put drops solution in my eyes every time it is cloudy. I don't rub my eyes every time it's cloudy to avoid more irritation. After the cloudy vision is gone, I also stop using it, you can use it occasionally always remember everything too much has bad side effects so avoid it.
I cry occasionally- This may sound lame but to me crying is my therapy it is also the natural way of cleansing our eyes, but of course, I put limits so my eyes will not be stressed and dried up after losing so many fluids(tears).
After doing all of those remedies for two weeks I got my 20/20 vision back until now, without using any correctional glass. Now, if my eyeballs hurt and my head hurts I just rest my eyes and refrain from using gadgets because probably it was stressed again, but it never went blurry just like before. Now I can read all the letters from the Snellen chart within 20 ft. left and right eyes.
If you are having trouble with your eyesight have some check-up to know your eyes grades, if your eyes grades are not high, you can apply the remedy I used, I also recommend this to my friends and they have positive feedback that their sight got better by following this remedy. Do not overuse your eyes especially exposing it to radiation.
Love your eyes πβ€
