If you are near sighted, do glasses help you see at all distances, near and far?


Since nearsightedness essentially means that the image falls short of your retina? So that even if something is close, the image is still slightly distorted even if is seems as though you see just as well with out your glasses up close. I'm nearsighted and it seems that even when I bring something to the distance at which I can best see without glasses, that glasses still help.

Maybe it's just true in my case then. My vision is good enough that I could get by without my glasses, but I'd look like I'm on drugs (with all the squinting) and I think that it gives me headaches.

I have very, very bad eyes and I have to wear glasses to see anything more than about 2 ft in front of my face but when I read I don't wear my glasses. It's harder to focus on things up close with my glasses on.

i think so

I wear gradient trifocals (no line) - top is for distance, middle is for my computer and bottom is for reading while at my desk - so I don't have to keep taking my glasses off to read something - I do not need glasses to read - only to see 2 feet in front of me!
