Just curios, my dad is always telling me not to wacth t.v. to much or not to stay up at 3:30 A.M surfing the internet because then I'll go blind or something like that! It get's annoying really, but now I'm scared because I can't see words from far away to good, the words get blurry so I have to get closer to the words, what if my dad isn't lying??? OMG!

Jokes aside, you could simply be losing your eyesight and need glasses. I remember in 7th grade (about thirty years ago) I sat in the back of the room. The teacher was always writing on the overhead projector. I was forever copy notes of the guy that sat next to me. (Never on a test, just the notes he was writing.) Why? I could not see and needed glasses. The school nurse always did vision tests and referred those who did not do well to see an eye doctor. I didn't do well and went to see an eye doctor. I remember the day I got my glasses. My mom and I walked out of his office and she asked me what I thought. I asked her, "where did that come from?" She asked "what?" I told her that billboard on the side of that building. (It was two blocks away!) She said, "it's always been there." I never saw it until that day. If your vision is going it will usually start out slow. I never knew mine was going. And over the years it has continued to go. The last time I had to have new lenses I was amazed that I could actually read S T O P at the stop sign one block from my back porch. If you are worried you should see a doctor.

you won't be blind if you watch tv or surf the net too much. you will just suffer from eye deficiency. like what happened to me. My doctor said that I need to wear glasses because I have a mild eye defect and it should be corrected.

Watching tv or playing at the computer won't led to poor vision but I know what will. You are playing with something similar to a joy stick.
