I recently went to an optometrist and he gave me an inadequate prescription. The vision in my left eye is good, but the right eye is off. After I complained, he suggested that I tape something over my left eye and read through my right eye for 20 minutes a day, to strengthen the eye. However, he wouldn’t admit that he gave me an incorrect prescription in the first place. Is that a legitimate eye exercise?

Because your left eye is better than the right, you are using that one more and the right is just getting lazier.
It is possible that you’re too old for the therapy to work, but your doctor could be trying to help you by suggesting this type of therapy.
Different doctors will have different opinions where this is concerned, so I won’t suggest that you see a different doctor, I would suggest that you listen to your doctor.

I don’t think so, go try another optometrist, if you find the same answer than go for it.
