My optometrist says both my near and far vision have improved, he saw no problems in my eyes but was trying to figure out why it had improved. I just started wearing progressives in 2017 and wonder if this may have something to do with it. Before that I had separate pairs of glasses for far and near. I'm 65 and in good health no existing medical conditions, my optometrist said I look like I'm 40. I read that as you get older your eyes change and a symptom for possible cataract formation was improvement in near vision, hence my concern. If this is pre-cataract symptoms I'm wondering how long it might take before I do get cataracts. My optometrist said I might not get cataracts. Should I have special tests done?
