I know just my own life doesn't nullify the statement but all my friends were the same I mean outside but I don't know of them who has glasses as adults.

Take off your glasses and try to read a book at arm length, and close up. If you can easily read it at both distances, you might have good vision. If you can only read it when it's far, you are far sighted. If you can only read it when it's near, you're near sighted.

This statement is confusing. And this is something I'm super keen to learn more about. So lets see if I understand this correctly.You mean you _do not_ know of any friends who _do not_ wear eyeglasses as adults?
Let me rephrase that.
You played outside as a child. You now wear glasses.
All of your friends played outside as well. All your friends now wear glasses
as well.
Is that correct?My friends and I played outside as children. I began to wear eyeglasses at age 17. My friends at the time to the best of my knowledge did not wear eyeglasses (ages 0 to 18). I do not know any of the same people now so I cannot say if they as adults wear eyeglasses or not.
Do your glasses magnify or reduce things? The former is for aiding hyperopia and the latter for myopia.
Also, as far as I can recall, astigmatism is present at birth and not developed over time like some other eye conditions.
Only started to get dioptries at 30 ish but the astigmatism was with me all my life.
No, it's definitely not present at birth (at least to the same degree) and can be acquired during child development and even early adulthood.
