If you have ever worn glasses, you have probably dealt with shady and untrustworthy optometrists. Besides all glasses in the US being owned by a simple monopoly in Italy that makes you have to pay to see, most of the time people in the US are given glasses when they do not need to have them. These are people like me who are born with perfect vision but have it degrade over time due to excess screen time and time spent mostly indoors.

I am not claiming to have a magical solution to computer-induced nearsightedness, but the science suggests that the only issue in this case is that your eyes are tense from constantly focusing on close objects, and the muscles in your eye that control your pupil are not able to relax, so the pupil can become thinner and direct light to the back of your eye which is what happens for people with perfect vision. The problem is muscles in your eye, and if you use subliminals for vision or spend time outdoors in places with sunlight, you will realize that you begin seeing clearer and clearer.

If you were born with myopia, it is possible you have an elongated eyeball and in that case you would really need glasses. In places like Russia they will not even prescribe glasses for people who do not have a certain threshold of vision, because they will cause your problem to get worse. When you are looking for glasses, keep in mind the extreme bias provided to everyone involved in the process due to material gains from getting everyone prescribed glasses.
