Inability to read with one eye?

Q: I am a 25 year old computer engineer. For the past 3 weeks, I have a problem that my right eye has been constantly blinking. I checked with one eye-specialist in Bangalore who found that I couldn't read anything with my right eye, left eye normal. He asked me to wear spectacles with power +2.00 for right eye and nil for left eye and now I am using the spectacles. But now all my vision is through the left eye only and when I close it, the vision is unclear through the right eye.

A:You have not mentioned your vision with and without glasses for me to give a proper opinion. If there is no eye problem and only glasses are a problem, then this is an old problem which has been detected now. In that case you are psychologically feeling the problem which already existed for a long time. Discuss this with your eye doctor.
