Worser vision caused by stress?

Question

For a few months I have had nearsightedness, today I can see almost clear now. Was my vision worse because I was stressing so much? For five years I was very stressed, and last year I had severe depression, I was thinking about suicide. This suicidal depression went on for about five months, I am not going to say why I was so depressed, but it was something very serious life changing thing. That's when I have gotten very bad vision. About two months ago everything worked out in my life, because I finally got to do something I wanted to do for so long that will change my life forever. I've been never happier. I have seen changes in my vision, it becomes clearer and clearer every day. I also do eye exercises. Today, my vision is maybe not as great as it was five years ago but it's much better. Also I am not suicidal anymore, I am ashamed of myself now, because I though about commiting it. Is this maybe the reason why my vision was bad?

Answer 1

Worser?  Ok.  In answer to your question, you should probably see an eye doctor.  Check your vision.  While it could have been a contributing factor, the actual answer is that your vision is probably not better, it's just probably that your used to having bad vision so you have adapted.

Answer 2

stress really does make your vision worse. it strains the eyes and is generally unhealthy anyway. with more sleep and healthier foods your eyes should get a little bit better. try not to stress so much (i know what kind of advice that is, i used to be the queen of stress, i had 2 ap classes, dance, and a job), try to relax more often and try to get in a different atmosphere where it isn't so depressing, get more in touch with your family and friends they wouldn't want you to have a burden so heavy anyway that you might be considering suicide.. trust me...  but i'm glad that you didn't :)
