Mr. Magoo,
My eyesight is just over the -5D limit at the moment (I think that's due to the extra astigmatism). You say that one way of re-training eyes to see properly is to wear +2 lenses on top. I guess wearing just weaker glasses (in my case -3D) is the same; correct??
I have an old pair of glasses which are -4D (with no astigmatism) but I cannot see a blooming thing with them on!!

What else can I do to improve my vision? I'm at uni at the moment studying Aero. Eng. with the one goal in mind of becoming an airline pilot and I do not want to give up, certainly not just because I cannot see as well as I need to.

Cheers in advance,

Jason
