Could Difficulty To See Objects In Distance Be A Result Of Increased Power Of Eyes?

Dear Sir,
I am 23 years old.I have been diagnosed to have 0.25 power in both the eyes, a year back. I am yet to go for a check up. I get pain in my eyes at times also i have difficulty in seeing distant objects. Is this because that my power is increased.

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are having difficulty in seeing objects at distance.
This is because of refractive error called as myopia or shirt sightedness.
The treatment is by refraction and correction in the form of glasses.
Your symptoms are because of the refractive error only and you will be fine once you wear correction.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for precription of glasses.

Thank you
