I am 13, I am of average weight, fairly slender. I exercise [my dad taught me how to exercise properly so, it's not that] I am tall too 5′10.
My vision is terrible 20/-4.75 [I think, it changes about every month or two; contact wearer]- no astigmatism
*Have experienced sensations where everything goes dark [eyes open and their don't seem to be any correlation with what I am doing/time of day/where I am, and these occurring]
*I tend to be a klutz, I have great balance and an avid martial artist, but for some reason I will trip or fall for no reason.
*I experience mild to severe pain in my joints, back, shoulders, neck, and pretty much everywhere. This pain is almost constant and the pain arises with no trauma occurring.
*I get headaches quite often and have extreme light sensitivity [even fluorescent light bulbs hurt my eyes, they begin to then water.]
Sun, computer/TV/cell phone screens also cause watering of my eyes [sometimes my nose too]
So,
*pain all over my body<primarily joints, neck, and back<Long, Long time.
*rapid vision change; not for the better about every month a new prescription is required<as long as I can recall
*being a klutz although I have a strong core<as long as I can recall
*blacking out for no apparent reason<as long as I can remember
*breathing normally then suddenly having extra air to exhale<fairly recent
*light sensitivity<This started within the past couple tears
I am under a lot of stress, primarily because of my parents fighting. When they fight I do feel weak in my knees and sometimes they collapse because of this.
I don't drink, or do drugs, and I eat healthy.
I ya'll have any ideas of what is going on, there are some other things, but these are the main problems. Any help is appreciated; Thank-you
[No, I can't just talk to my doctor, my parents won't listen and they think nothing is wrong]
I also have trouble getting my eyes to focus.
No, I am not sexually active [idk if that matters, but it might]

at my last eye exam, i was told to stop wearing contacts because they were depriving my eyes of oxygen, and therefore causing blood vessels to form on my eyes. i have really bad astigmatism and do not want to wear glasses. could i be a candidate for lasik or prk?
What Other Contacts Are There For A Difficult Astigmatism? Tried So Many. Do I Have Other Options?

I wore gas perms for 10 years but am now no longer able to wear them because I have developed very dry eyes. I have been trying soft toric lenses for months changing prescripton and brand and nothing is working. I have a very strong prescription about -6.00 and my astigmatism is wierd in one eye, axis 50. I have tried oasys, they would hang too low. Purevision and Softlens are too dry and sticky. Air optics burn my eyes and my vision is unclear. Pro Clear was uncomfortable. Anybody have any ideas? I have been trying trials for 4 months now. I don’t want to wear my coke bottle glasses. I’m very glad that my doc is trying so hard for me but I am thinking he is about to tell me there aren’t any there options. Help.
I Have A Mild Prescription, Do I Need To Wear Glasses?

Hi,
Ive just got an eye test. Result was sph -0.5 for each eye and slight astigmatism in one of the eyes (i forgot which one). The optometrist was going to give me prescription glasses (to help driving at night) but i thought that i did not need one. They usually jack up the price anyway. So, the question was do i need glasses?
Contacts/glasses Question-why Do I Have To Get Used To Glasses First?

Hi –
I got glasses recently (I’m 13) cuz I have 20/100 in every eye and slight astigmatism. However, I look like a nerd anyway and my friends told me to get contacts NOW cuz you look so nerdy. SO NERDY like really nerdy. My question-I’m responsible, and I’m willing to take care of contacts for as long as it takes/I won’t break them. I don’t have any headaches with glasses. Why are my parents telling me to wear glasses for a while first?
I Have Slight Astigmatism ?

i was told i had slight astigmatism, and i had a choice of wearing regular soft lenses or hard lenses. if i wear the soft lenses, far away things will be shadowy and blurry and if i wore the hard lenses, they would be uncomfortable and make my eyes red, but i would see everything clearly. i asked about contacts for people with astigmatism, but he said my amount was too less for that. he said my astigmatism was about 25% or something. that was the ultimatum my stupid optometrist gave me. i went home and researched if there was anything else i could do. i found out toric lenses which are for people with astigmatism. i was wondering if someone with slight astimatism wear toric lenses. i read somewhere it could correct it, but i want some other opinions. thanks !
Do I Have Astigmatism?

Hi, im about to turn 16 and for I guess 4 years my eyes have gotten worse and worse and worse, from 20 20 vision to not legal to drive now,my eyes hurt whenever I focus on anything, like reading something right infront of me(Im not having trouble reading it it just hurts) or on the computer. My glasses help me see farther, but when I have them on, my eyes will hurt aswell, as if looking at things closing up irritates my eyes. My father had astigmatism and from trying to self diagnose myself it kind of sounds like I have it. Is there anyway to stop this pain??? I’ve never tried contacts
