I need to get an eye test as my glasses just arent cutting the mustard now, I have 3 pairs, 1 pair for distance, 1 for reading, and a third pair for in between.
my left eye was diagnosed as a child as a lazy eye, they never could correct it, it is now at a point they cannot correct by glasses as the image sizes would be so far apart that my brain could not correct. even with my glasses I cant use binoculars as the adjustment available for the left eye is not enough to bring that eye to focus.
Yet despite this I manage, my left eye has great peripheral vision, and can figure movement well, so its not too much of a drawback, I manage driving and model making (with my reading glasses), if I want to do really close work, i wear 2 pairs of glasses, as that saves using a magnifying glass. (I also work as a CAD draughtsman)
Dont panic just yet, the specialists can fix most things nowadays, the worst you may suffer is wearing glasses or contact lenses. I have been wearing glasses since I was 18 (I found out when suffering eye strain on my A level technical Drawing exam - after a 3 hour paper).
the work I do stops me using varifocals as I need to see all of a plan at once, not just a strip in focus.
best of luck with the eye tests, and dont worry just yet.
