Please help

Went to a Eye Doctor couple of weeks ago. She told me that my Optic Nevre on both eyes were tilted and probably had them like that since birth.

1. Can this harm my vision later on?
2. Does this cause a optice nerve drusen?


Please answer. Very curious.

thanks

1) Not likely.

2) No.


You are probably nearsighted.

No.  It is a normal variant.
