Can your eyes heal themselves?

Question

I have been wearing glasses for about 20 years now because when I looked at words far away they were blurry and blended together, about 6 months ago my eyes started feeling really tense when I wore my glasses, I thought maybe they were not strong enough so I got a new stronger prescription, that made it worse, my friend said to try going back to my other prescription and I did and it did make them feel better for a while, but even they started making my eyes feel tense so I started not wearing them at all for short periods of time and I noticed my eyes felt so much better when I had my glasses off so I have been keeping them off longer, even reading words from far away is better, they are not as blurry anymore, they are still a little wavy but I can read them, Can your eyes get better on their own over time? And even though they feel better am I hurting them more by not wearing the glasses.

Answer 1

I don't know if they get better or if the focal point changes. The same thing happened when I was younger I wore reading glasses, in my 20s my vision improved somehow and I didn't need my glasses anymore. When I turned 40 I started needing them again. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted!
