The Critical Analysis of Harry Potter Question

If Harry Potter is so magical, why can't he cure his own eyesight.

I read that quote in Reader's digest a while back. It was meant to be funny.

Jokes aside, this really is food for thought. Anyone care to shed some light?

PS - Just so we're clear which side I come down on, I've been an HP fan since forever.

same reason why he never buy a better clothes with so much money he inherited from his parents.
he just never bothered to do anything about it.
I mean the glasses was something he ALWAYS wear since he can remember anything. maybe he was just feel like somthing's missing without it.

Plastic surgery (and better clothes) are about vanity, and I gladly accept that harry is above that. But poor eyesight is a major disadvantage, especially when you duel on a regular basis. Plus, there isn't anything to suggest that there WAS a magical cure Harry decided against.
