It's easier to read on a computer or other device because of the brightness and because I can increase the font size. Even when my vision goes blurry, I can still read with no problem because I can still see the outline of words. But when the font is smaller, like in books, they slowly blur until they become shapes that I cannot decipher.
I have tried reading while shining a light on the book. This helps, but only slightly. I have tried different positions, even standing. I have tried being more awake while reading. I have tried holding the book in different lengths away from my face. My vision still goes blurry every time.
When this occurs, if I focus really hard, I can make my vision sharper for a few seconds, but then it fades away. It's actually happening right now; I'm straining just to type this.
If you've been through this, let me know what helped. Thanks.
