Even if you can read with out the glasses it is better to read with the glasses on.

Dear Dr. XXXXXXX
Glaucoma. 1 eye 20/30 the other 20/80. My vision has seen the tv as a little grainy, but only for a short while. Should I get some prescription glasses? My $5- store bought glasses work just fine. The prescription spectacles would cost me through the nose & I live on a fixed income. Thank you in advance. You are doing the Lords work & I shall say a short prayer for you for Him to do something nice for you.
Merry Christmas
God bless you
With love, XXXXXXX

Dear Dr. Heleema,
Did you miss me? Tee Hee Hee. We could use a professional such as yourself here in the good old U.S. of A. They are dying off and this generation is too lazy to put in the work they all want something NOW. Simply out of curiousity what country do you live in.
Now my glaucoma question.
1 ] Are there eye exercises I can use to improve my eyesight?
2]Are there vitamins i can take to improve or slow the pace of my glaucoma?
Have a great day. With love.
Merry Christmas,
Happy New Year
&
God bless you,

Brief Answer:
Eye excercises can definitely help to improve eye sight

Detailed Answer:
Hello again, first of thank you for the loads of compliments .Iam from XXXXXXX
Eye excercises could definitely help improve your far and near sightedness.
The excercises are frequent blinking ,side to side movements of the eye ball and reading or gazing at an object very closely till it blurs out, followed by side to side movement of eye ball.
Unfortunately nothing except your eye drops can help your glaucoma.
Merry Christmas
Best wishes
Dr Haleema
