Q: I tend to be in front of the television and computer a lot. My eyesight has hence become blurred. I am wearing glasses as suggested by the doctor since 5 months. Please give suggestions to improve my eyesight and remove my glasses?

A:If you have developed a refractive error, you will have to wear corrective glasses for all visual tasks (viz computer/TV etc.). Once the power of the glasses stabilises (> 1 year), you can consider Lasik for removal of the glasses. You must also increase the intake of green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits etc. to provide adequate multivitamins to the eyes.
