My 4years old son was detected with Cylindrical power with -1.50 in both the eyes
My 4 years old son was detected with Cylindrical power with -1.50 in both the eyes . We got his checked IN LV prasad Eye hospital and they have sugested for glasses. I would like to know wether there is a chance of this cylindrical power might get away once he grows up or is there is a chance of his number gowing up ? .Please advice.
The most important thing about the eye is having good vision so that is a much more important question to ask. I have 1.50 diopters of cylinder (astigmatism) and I've been an eye surgeon and have 20/20 vision. So the question is moot. It could increase or it could decrease. Also important what the "sphere" is and what the vision is and whether the eyes are straight. Keep him under the care of an Eye MD ophthalmologist and check other children as this runs in families.
