[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have bad nearsightedness (with a side of astigmatism too). DH is -7 and at my worst, I was -12. Somehow, our almost 16 year old has perfect vision. Each year, the eye doctor says next year could be the year he starts to need glasses. I'll say with a bit of shame that he has heavy screen usage and not a great diet, so I'm shocked it's not worse. I think the saving grace for him is that he plays baseball almost year-round so he's using his distance vision and in the sunlight too. Also, he never went through a massive growth spurt (was more of a slow and steady guy); the eye doctor said vision can decline during growth spurts as the eyeball gets stretched out (for myopia). They say that even if he does eventually need glasses, he's most likely escaped having the really bad vision his parents do.[/quote]
