I practically wasted 1 whole year .
Not calendar year but 12 months

One thing I tried to do was get laser eye surgery
But I have an eye problem where the cillary muscle is overactive and I was ineligible due to opticians scamming me with too strong glasses, inflating my prescription

If I had been eligible, I would have done something and it would have not felt like a waste. But no I had to be unlucky and couldn't even do that

It makes me so sad

Did it help you.
Can't say for sure since I didn't get an eye exam. Vision is definitely improving but since I rotted the last few days I have slown my progress. You have to make a lot of research about shit and about buying the right reduction in your pair of glasses.
I don't wear them but my vision isn't too bad (myopia only like -1.25 max) but mainly I have mild astigmatism and reducing eye strain is very effective to tackle this issue (Check out the Bates Method). I also seemed to have less dark circles last week but they came back this week because I rotted on my computer and slept like shit because I'm sick.

Everyone seems to say the same as you.
 
Nobody gets clear results
plenty of them do actually. Check out Nottnott on YTB. Dude reduced his myopia by 3 diopters

Yeh I have
I bought reduced glasses
Prescription before cycloplegic eye drops was
-2.75 -3
After muscle relaxing drops in the eye exam they were -1.25 -1.75 (true refractive error)

Currently wearing -1.25 -1.75 for everything

Up close is fine, at distance I don't see details

Only been wearing them for 2 weeks
How long do you think it will take and did I reduce them too much do you think?

You don't wanna reduce too fast.
If you reduce by more than .5 it will not be as beneficial.
You really have to check Endmyopia website and the Shortsighted podcast, there is good information

I'll check it out but I read some and it says reduce 1.5 dioptres from spherical prescription for close up work which is what I did

Also shouldn't it be faster / easier for me since I am just trying to get rid of the accommodative spasm and get to -1.25 -1.75, whereas the endmyopia stuff is mainly to get to 20 20 by reducing axial length. I'm not gonna bother with that I just want to get to my corneal error then get prk

Yeah get a pair of normalized and differentials.
I don't wear glasses cause my myopia is low but mild astigmatism which causes blur.
Gonna get an eyesight exam in december and reduce slowly my cylinder prescription (NEVER reduce cylinder and spherical at the same time)

Yeah I won't bother reducing cylinder since it's same as after cycloplegia

Tbh I have 2 pairs but don't wear the distance pair because I rarely need distance vision and for driving I can see well enough with the differentials. Is it bad if I wear differentials for both?
