Do I need to wear glasses for hyperopia with astigmatism?
Generally speaking, whether hyperopia with astigmatism requires wearing glasses depends on the specific circumstances. If the condition is mild, glasses are usually not necessary; however, if symptoms are severe, wearing glasses is recommended. Detailed analysis is as follows:
If the patient's hyperopia is mild and does not affect daily life and work after adjustment, and there is no significant blurring of vision or visual fatigue when viewing distant or near objects, glasses may not need to be worn temporarily. However, if the refractive error is significant and causes obvious vision deterioration that affects daily activities such as driving, reading, or using a computer, glasses should be worn.
In addition, both hyperopia and astigmatism are refractive errors that can cause blurred vision. Failure to wear glasses in a timely manner may worsen the condition, increasing the degree of hyperopia and astigmatism, and may even lead to amblyopia.
In daily life, if symptoms of hyperopia and astigmatism are present, it is recommended to seek timely consultation at the ophthalmology department of a hospital and choose appropriate glasses under the guidance of a doctor. Moreover, after obtaining glasses, regular follow-up examinations at the hospital are necessary to monitor visual acuity and refractive status, allowing timely adjustment of the glasses prescription according to any changes. At the same time, it is important to develop good eye habits, avoid prolonged use of mobile phones or reading, and rest the eyes promptly after use, all of which help maintain eye health.
