Brief Answer:
Meet an ophthalmologist.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
I understand your concerns. As the person has said about the use of bifocal lenses I would suggest you to meet an ophthalmologist for a detailed examination and to know the exact power for far sight and near sight. If there are any changes I would advice you to change your glasses.
There are other associating conditions such as BP or Diabetes which can affect the power of your eyesight. That also will have to be checked.
Other causes can be due to eye strain due to continuous looking at computer screens and XXXXXXX screens, for which you need to look away from computer every 20 mins to 30 mins and do eye exercises such as looking sideways, up and down, eye rotation.
I hope this answered your query.
With regards,
