Nearsightedness often progresses when left untreated. If untreated other eye diseases are possible to occur.
The unfortunate truth is that it rarely stops worsening on its own. If no proper treatment is provided, the eyes will suffer and may even lead to blindness.
We suggest early treatment to help stop nearsightedness in its tracks. Without the help of an eye doctor, it’s impossible to manage myopia. As you grow older, like many things, it can become worse and increase your chance of glaucoma, cataracts, detached retina, and macular degeneration.
