I ask because I am farsighted and I've been wearing contact lenses for about 12 years. I am in my early twenties. I would say about 5 years ago, an optometrist decided to dilate my eyes in order to receive, as he put it, a more accurate prescription because my eyes worked too hard to focus. So while my prescription before this had always been in the +3 and +4 range, it got bumped up to something around +6.50 in the left eye and +5.75 in the right eye. They said it would take some getting used to, but I no longer strained to see up close. It became common among all my eye doctors (I switched doctors often for some reason) to dilate my eyes for a prescription without any communication with each other or anything. Well, about 3 months ago, my prescription expired, so I went to another new eye doctor, and he didn't dilate my eyes, and my prescription went back to the +4 range! I was definitely worried and told them at my fitting, so they raised it a little. Now they're at +5.75 in my left eye and +4.50 in my right eye. It's been a couple weeks and my eyes are straining a little again at work. I was wondering if I should let them know, or if it would be better to get used it and let my eyes learn to focus again. With the very high prescription, I was always worried that my eyes had become weaker because it seemed my vision without the contacts was a lot worse and I couldn't focus at all anymore. Thank you! I've tried to bring up my concern with my doctors, but it doesn't seem like a concern to them.
