Because of my rebelliousness, my left eye was beaten to amblyopia by my mother. As I get older, my vision is no longer clear due to my increasing myopia. I hate the incompetence of my eyes. I squeezed my eyes with my hands, causing extremely high astigmatism. Isn't my fate ridiculous?

It's not ridiculous, it sounds like a terribly lonely and difficult place to be. My vision is ok and I know it would severely impact my feelings if I was to suffer sight loss, especially if it was caused by someone who was supposed to protect me.
I don't really have any advice - except maybe try to stop damaging your eyes further if you can - you'll end up in a worse situation to your current one.
I hope you manage to find whatever you're looking for from this site.

I don't hurt my eyes anymore. Although my mother beat me and left me with amblyopia, I can still see with my other eye. I couldn't live a normal life because I squeezed my eyes.

me as well.. eyes not aligned after a surgery on the nearby tissue and chronic pain/bluriness
It wasnt from physical violence though.. I can only imagine how that feels..
I know people usually will downplay it or assume your problem is just the same as how they can just wear glasses to fix their vision, but I understand a little bit of how you might be feeling <3

In China, it is very common for parents to use violence to educate their children. My mother's purpose was not to make my eyes weak, she just felt that I was disobedient to discipline.They think it's normal to use violence to make children obey.
I can't read paper books because of my eyes

This is so unfair. Even without the risk of physical damages, you run the risk of mental damages. It sounds like you probably got both. I'm so sorry about that. You didn't deserve it, even if you were disobedient - I'll be honest, what child isn't disobedient at some point? Children learn by making mistakes, not by being hurt.

Ah, just another episode of "parents excusing their physically and/or psychologically abusive behaviours towards their children by claiming that it's 'discipline'". I'm sorry that your mother did that to you and I'm sorry that her actions have led to your left eye becoming lazy. Have you tried looking into treatment for it?
No, that was a long time ago. It's just amblyopia. After correction, my visual acuity was only 0.8. But my right eye is really useless. . My vision depends entirely on my left eye.
lm sorry to say I'm almost blind in my right eye is an exaggeration, but it's hard for me to describe it either. .
I'm not trying to defend my parents, I'm just saying this is a common phenomenon in China.

I'm not saying that you are defending it. It's more of a jab at your mother.
