A myopic prescription can actually be good for seeing things close up but not in the distance- explains why you’re able to see close up with that eye OK
Thing is, I ignored it for about 10 years and my brain simply ignored whatever signal was coming from that eye. I'd look at things and see no blurring unless I closed my right eye. However, at a certain crossover distance my brain "switches over" because my left eye has amazing close vision and my right eye doesn't. I can actually feel it when this happens, like a physical sensation. No headaches, but it is "odd".
Anyway, I decided to get glasses, and it turns out I need two different prescriptions. One is close up (not longsightedness, it is still a myopia lens). The other is for 1m-∞
