  • You can't really. Just get contact lenses. Not that big a deal!


  • You can get contact lenses that you can wear all the time, day and night, and just change them once a month. That's the nearest to 20/20 vision until you can get your eyes lasered. It's not always possible to have laser treatment though. Very rarely eyes can correct themselves from being short/long sighted but it's never by much, and pretty rare.


  • I have bad eyes too.
    And I asked about laser surgery for my eyes when I turned 18. My eye doctor recommended that you wait until your eyes are fully matured, which is when you're about 22/23?
    But that's what he told me.
    I guess its really up to you.
    I just deal with my vision problem because there are so many contacts and glasses to wear.
    Not to mention...there's not much you can do to improve it.


  • look into Bates Exercises, or laser surgery when you're older. Otherwise glasses or contacts.


  • When you are older laser eye surgery may be an option.


  • I have contacts.. got them when I was 14. You grow into them..

    At this age, thats all you CAN do, when your 18, you can go for Laser Eye Surgery,


  • Not much fella, I was -4.25 for my teens, I got contacts as soon as I could then had them blasted with the laser as soon as I could afford it. And now I can see clocks in the night without fumbling for glasses.
    I don't think there's much else you could do, sorry ;)
