It's 2020. I woke up New Year's Day thinking my vision would improve. It didn't.☹

When you woke up, what did you see? Have you visited a doctor to get your eyes examined? Years ago when I was in High School I was always squinting. My parents took me to an eye doctor (Ophthalmologist) who shown me that i can see items in very good detail close up. So when photographing, i usually take my glasses off. However without my glasses I can't pull the car out of its parking space.

Please check your eyes out.

Happy Shooting!

Thanks - I go for yearly diabetic eye exams and already had cataract surgery but still need glasses.

A daily supplement of Vitamin A and a multivitamin tablet may help over time. Taking a couple grams of Vitamin C in the morning and in the evening after a meal also could help.

I had a similar problem after cataract surgery and a diagnoses of glaucoma. My eye Dr didn't have any answers and he was in his 70's so I went to a younger Dr. and he figured out I have dry eye. It is easy to treat and my vision has improved. Please see an Ophthalmologist as soon as possible and see what the issue is so you can continue to use your eyes,

I'm still hoping for the year to live up to it's namesake! Except for cataracts that were removed, eyes are pretty good. I have far-sightedness in one eye and near-sightedness in the other. So glasses forever. No retinopathy yet.
