I have myopia of power +1.50 in both eyes. My eye doctor told me to wear glasses all the time and she said it will increase with time even after glasses. Is it what we call retinal detachment in myopia? Regardless of what she said, I want to improve/maintain my eyesight. Will doing eye exercises daily along with homeopathic med and spending time in sunlight will help? I myself have seen many patients who helped their vision with diet and yoga. Tell me, reducing myopia possible for me?

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Patients with pathological myopia (ie, > ?8 diopters) are at increased risk of retinal detachment due to axial elongation of the globe and peripheral retinal thinning. Lifetime risk of spontaneous retinal detachment in pathologic myopia is 15?200 times higher than in people with normal visual acuity. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
