What's going on with my left eye?


I have been moderately nearsighted since 12 with astigmatisms (sp?) in both eyes, but recently I have discovered that my left eye is no longer participating when I work at the computer or read a book - it sort of fades out. When I close my right eye, my left eye can see and read the words, but it makes me tired and just seems to be poorly lit or somehow unclear. I am 30 now. I know I need a new prescription, but if anyone can explain this problem I'd appreciate it!

Astigmatism can cause you to be either near sighted or farsighted, could be you need to get your eyes examined, like you said you need a new prescription, best get it taken care of and save yourself some headaches.

Time to visit the eye doctor.

sound like you have a lazy eye, its a condition my son has it, you need to wear perscription glasses to correct it
