Скачать или смотреть Glasses TOO STRONG? (Over-minused) Here's What's Happening

Are your eyeglasses too strong? This video explores how an overly strong eyeglasses prescription can lead to symptoms like persistent blurred vision and frequent headaches. We also discuss common eye strain symptoms and how they might be related to your current glasses.

Understanding these signs is crucial for maintaining good eye health and finding effective headache relief. Learn more about why your glasses might be causing discomfort and what steps you can take to address it, especially if you're experiencing eye strain symptoms or seeking glasses for eye strain.

This video also reviews the topic of being over-minused in prescription glasses - which refers to when minus glasses power is prescribed in excess to what is optically required to see well. While this is typically discouraged in clinical practice, we know it still happens. Dr. Allen shares his hot takes on why he thinks we still see people getting overminused in their glasses prescription despite the heavy training to avoid error.

Things we cover in this video:
What it means to be over-minused in a glasses prescription
Common symptoms like eye strain, headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and blurry distance or near vision- - Why over-minusing can happen even when eye doctors are well-trained and careful
How modern exams, habits, and visual demand can influence prescriptions
Simple ways to self-assess if your glasses feel “off”
What to tell your eye doctor if you’re worried your prescription is too strong

This isn’t about blaming eye doctors—refractions are nuanced, and your visual system changes depending on fatigue, stress, screen use, and more. My goal is to help you better understand your eyes and feel confident advocating for clear, comfortable vision.

👓 If your glasses cause discomfort or just don’t feel right, this video is for you.

📌 Important: This video is for education only and does not replace a comprehensive eye exam. Always discuss symptoms and concerns directly with your eye care provider.

If this helped, consider liking the video, subscribing, and sharing it with someone who just got new glasses and isn’t loving them.

Being over-minused could be a reason why some people claim that they "reversed their need for glasses", meaning they were probably prescribed too strong of glasses at one point and then learned to not over flex their eye muscles to compensate for the extra power.
