1 eye is more myopia

Hello!. I'm now 48 y.o.. I noticed I had my left lens with
stronger prescription when I was 28 y.o. And I
had vision therapy for convergence.
Since then, and after Lasik surgery.
My left eye has been weaker. Now left eye is -4.00
right eye has not changed, -1.50 from Dec 2010's eye exam.
I wonder if premature birth causes it. (I was born premature).
Thanks.

Wow i cant wait to show this forum to my mom to show her that my not going crazy. Today i was going nuts in the car because she kept saying i needed to go to a phyco because there was something mentally wrong with me.

Lately its been so hard to drive. My mom likes to talk with her hands while she is in the passenger seat and i think she is going to poke my eyes out. If she points to something my eyes go crazy and i think she is going to poke my eyes out even if she just raises her hand up alittle. I think its my contacts but i have always had feelings like this since i was a kid (im 18 not) but now its getting worse especially when im driving.

Should i even bother to mention it to my eye doctor?

A retinal exam will determine if this is due to prematurity.
