Hi I’m not very good with Reddit i’m sorry if my post isn’t made very well, or if this isn’t the right subreddit for me I just really need some advice/help. I’ve noticed my eyesight worsening over the years, I got an eye exam and apparently my vision wasn’t too good for my age. They gave me a prescription for glasses, and told me to come back in a year. They checked for Diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma. Apparently I showed no signs of either, so they told me it isn’t degenerative. I always get terrified about health stuff but i’ve been really worried it’s still getting worse, they past few days my eyes have been strained and things have now sometimes been blurry. It’s really been scaring me. My eyes also often feel dry/hard to keep fully open, when I rub them they get watery.

I tried putting on my glasses for the first time but they hurt my eyes a lot, is this normal?? Should I be worried? I just really worry about my eyesight and don’t want it to get worse, i’ve been panicking a lot and don’t know what to think. It seems like sometimes it’s worse than other days, and certain things make it worse.
