For a good while I didn't realise this was what the problem was; however, when I finally went to Specsavers for an updated prescription, they saw something was wrong and referred me to an ophthalmologist.

Much though I was dreading it, it really didn't work out badly at all (so far; there's always the possibility that my eyes might just drop out or something, I suppose).
