A Little Annoying...

I noticed a fair while ago now that I can be reading something or looking at something and suddenly I lose focus on what I was looking at. I blink, and it's still the same. Then, I would refocus but it would just keep happening to the point that I would give up on trying to read whatever I was reading. I can also look at a page of words and I easily lose where I was up to in reading it because the words all start to look the same in a matter of minutes... it's pretty annoying. Can you help?

Dear bellarulz10,

I would recommend that you seek the care of an eyeMD to determine the cause of your symptoms. Different problems such as hyperopia, presbyopia may be responsible for this.
