I went to the eye doctor and I hadn't been in a year and a half. My prescription changed in my left eye from a -2.25 to a -3.00. In the right eye it went from a -1.75 to a -2.50. I am 28 years onld and I have had glasses/contacts for 16 years. It just moved a little each year until this year. Am I going blind?

get an eye exam and see what the doctor says.

I don't think contacts slow the changing of eyesight, but you are hardly going blind, either. A -2.50 is far from being blind.

That isn't a big jump, really. And, if you happened to change doctors from an optometrist to an ophthalmologist, there may actually be no change at all, because they write the same prescription in different ways. (That's assuming you have some astigmatism as well...)

Hardly, try contacts, they slow changing of eyesight.
