Brief Answer:
halos especially around green and blue light.

Hi
Thanks for your query.
what i could see from your refraction is you have got anisometropia. i will suggest a repeat refraction say it can be second opinion. with the age advances there are changes in-body so also in vision. what you are experiencing may be normal. say different co lour of light are focused differently because of different wavelength. so it creates a fog like haze around bright light.it can be optical aberration may be it will not create problem with contact lens. some time it happens as side effect of drug like Viagra. it is suggested to consult retina surgeon to correlate it with any disease in retina or vitreous .it can be hallows and glare. so it may help if anti glare coating is added to lens our retina or macula can identify green and red lights but have difficulty to see blue. we-can say blue light hazard. out of all light blue light is focused in front, so it creates a halo.it is a common problem for many around world.exclude glaucoma. and early cataract as well.
Hope it helps.

I was having +0.5 hyperopia previously in this eye but when i got it checked last month hyperopia was gone and my vision was 6/6 so can this halos and glare can go naturally or will it get worse with?i practise eye exercises regularly,
Brief Answer:
contact lens and antiglare specs can help.
Detailed Answer:
yes it will go by itself. I would suggest you use contact lens and use anti glare glasses. I do not think eye exercise will help in any way.

Thank you very much sir for your answer i wanted to join merchant navy and they need 6/6 vision in better eye and 6/9 in other with good night vision so would i be eligible as during night halos and glare around lights is not very much except for blue lights ? But when i look together at any distant light with both my eyes there is no halos around lights but when i look with my left eye there is slight halos ?
Brief Answer:
fitness to join navy with 6/9 vision in one eye.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Welcome back.
In navy you will be subjected to medical examination by armed force doctor. Rules and regulation of armed force will be applicable to you. As far as I know with this minor refractive error it will not be a hindrance to join navy. you will be fit to join navy. problem will be only colour vision defect and biancularity. You do not have such problem.
Hope this helps you.
You can get back to me if you have further queries.
Take care.
Bye.
