Isn't myopia beneficial? When eyes get adapted to screens, books maybe it's bettter? I can see every single pixel on screens and it's very useful in daily life. Far sight is useful only rarely - when driving, and when hiking in mountains. And near sight worsens with age, maybe previous myopia slightly prevents that.

Thanks for reminding me about myopia, I will get glasses (if anything, just for mountain views). One time I tried someone else's glasses and it was wonderful, completely different world when being outside, extremely sharp, not blurry.
