I have had 2 visual acuity tests done within the last 6 months; the one done in June was:
SPH R -1.75 axis 5; L -2.00 axis 10; the latest done in November:
SPH R-2.00 axis -; L -2.50 axis 30.
I have to see the optometrist every 6 months because I take a medication that can damage the macula, but I decided to try a different optometrist a little early as my vision had been really bothering me (finding it generally hard to focus, right eye rather more blurry).
Initially I put this down to variation between different optometrists, but am now wondering if it might be significant of changes in the eyes? At the test in June the double vision test (looking at a pen at the extremes of vision) didn't go too well either, the pen kept on going double in a mid-upper position in both eyes, even after several repetitions (the optician just said it was something to keep an eye on without explaining why).
