Answer 1

Your eye sight is precious; more important than what you look like. Get a check up. There are stylish glasses available, if you have to wear them. The test is free, not the glasses.

Answer 2

u won't go blind, u just have bad eye site..if u get sprayed with anything bad like bad chemicals..then u might go blind but not from watching too much tv or reading too much and whatever..XD

Answer 4

When you can't see.

Answer 5

You just need glasses. Get a check-up at your optician first. Spec-saver sell quite cheap glasses. I've seen £25 advertised. Don't know how trendy they are though. A lot of people especially girls wear contact lenses. They're not much more than glasses and are easy to use.

Answer 6

you need to get your eyes checked if your having problems. The longer you leave it the worse it will get. You can get contact lenses if you do not want glasses. You seem pretty confident in your appearance though, so if you are the 4th prettiest, i doubt some fashionable glasses will do any harm.

What Laissez_Faire said.

It is better to go to an ophthalmologist. They will examine your eyes and take into account your symptoms. They can properly diagnose your vision porblem. We cannot here on yahoo answers. We are not doctors and should not replace your eye doctor. Once you get a diagnosis he/she will perscribe the proper treatment for you. If you don't know where to turn ask your primary care doctor to refer you to an eye doctor that takes your type of insurance. Headaches and loss of sight needs to be taken care of by an eye specialist, not someone who makes glasses. See a specialist now and let us know how things go. Best of luck.

just 4th prettiest! do they have a poll?  bracis will make your teeth nicer later on in life and glasses will help you see so that you can make sure you are picking at least the 4th best good lucking lad in your year, otherwise you'll be picking a geek!

Eye tests are free for you at any optician (inc. specsavers) as you are under 16. They will remain free until you are 18 if you stay in full time education. You might also get an NHS voucher towards your glasses to help pay for them, I get one worth £35 (well not any more because I've just finished school but you get the point).
