Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.
I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having refractive error in the form of myopia and wearing spectacles.
It seems you are having problem of unequal refractive error in both the eyes with things appearing clear with right eye compared to left eye.
This can be because of improper refractive correction in left eye.
Hence we need to verify glasses and refraction in left eye before proceeding for further evaluation.
Do send me spectacle prescriotion if you have and consult your optometrist for refraction testing and get back with the results, so that I can answer more acuurately.
Hope the information is helpful to you.
Thank you
With regards
