I have really bad eye sight, I'm around -6.75 in contacts. I was wearing contacts for the past couple of years where I could see clearly enough to live comfortablly, watch TV, shop, walk the dog down the street, anything except they just wern't good enough for driving. Driving around my city which I know very well, sure, but I couldn't read signs from a good enough distance and there were some little things where I don't think I see good enough. So I was scared of driving on highways except ones I knew well and there weren't many turns or lane changing.

So I went to a different eye doctor who got my prescription right and gave me a much stronger kind. Huge differene in everything, looking at trees I can now see like each individual leaf outline. I have been wearing them 1-2 months, but made the mistake of using them while on the computer which I am on A LOT. Now when I take them out, I'm noticing my eye sight is much, much worse! I cannot see 2 inches in front of me, it is ridiculous. Before I at least had 6 inches where I could make things out..Now it's nuts.

I have another eye appointment today and I'm not sure which contacts to go with. I really like these strong ones for driving and I'll admit they do feel too strong while I'm on the comp, but I guess I got used to it and forgot about it after a while. (now..)

Should I get the strong ones to drive and online for short periods of time? Then use the lower strength ones when I'm online for a long time? I think it's going to suck having to change these things 2-3 times a day. But I despise glasses. Ugh.

Do you think my eyesight will naturally get better if I stop wearing the strong ones online?

I've looked into the bates method.. don't think it's for me.
