The time of the sun eclipse is the most dangerous period if the eyes reflect on the sun because at that time the brightness of the light will decrease but the radiation that can cause the damage of the eye does not change.
.

For Short-term sufferers, vision at a long distance is blurry while clear at a close distance. When Long-distance vision is fixed with glasses, close-distance vision will also be affected while presbiopia patients will experience close-distance ambiguity.
.
Due to that situation, the patient will open the glasses to look at the near distance. Often, patients are advised to make correction for a long distance and close or known as a a or multifocal lens.
.
10. Myths: the power of the glasses can be reduced or will increase if wearing glasses every day.
.
Facts – adding or reducing the power of glasses depends on the growth of patient eyes. Glasses are just a sight aid tool that can help the user to see more clearly. Of the eyeballs will still happen even wearing glasses.
