Glasses Reduce Eyesight - True or False?

People have different attitude towards wearing eye glasses. Some wear them constantly, buying new stylish and comfortable frames for their favorite glasses very often. Others put them on once in a while for a number of reasons – some of them say the glasses do not suit them, while others consider that wearing spectacles constantly can impact eyesight in a negative way. But is that true or not?

 

People wear glasses for a variety of reasons. Thus, with age many people notice that it is getting more difficult for them to read, the common symptom of hyperopia. They become more and more dependant on glasses and they believe that wearing spectacles does not allow eyes "exercise” while reducing eyesight.

Actually, wearing glasses in this situation has no impact on eyesight; glasses don’t reduce or improve it. And in case one is willing to continue active lifestyle – work, read, drive a vehicle or travel - glasses or lenses are vital.

A quite different issue is the eyesight disorders in children. In this case the question is about correcting the eyesight, since the child is just learning to see and without correctly selected glasses it could lead to the amblyopia or the so-called lazy eye syndrome. In addition, wearing glasses influence on the child’s intellectual development.
