Standard scrollbars in Sublime Text 3

Is there any way to have standard Windows/system native scrollbars in Sublime Text 3 or do I have to get myself used to these tiny little ones?

For me, a person with medium eyes problems, current scrollbars are just to tiny and I'm having problems, from time to time, with catching them. I heard, that eveything is configurable in Sublime Text 3, so I'd like to ask, if scrollbars can be changed as well?

As Miles Zhang suggests,

you can try some third part themes ... you can find more themes from Package Control

And you can change the size of the scroll-bars for most of them as well. Create a file in your packages directory with the same name as your theme. I like to use Cyanide theme, so I would create a new file in (packages dir)/User/Cyanide.sublime-theme. then set the attributes you want. In this case, you want to set scroll_bar_control : content_margin. My Cyanide.sublime-theme file looks like this:

[
    {
        "class": "scroll_bar_control",
        "attributes": ["horizontal"],
        "content_margin": [3, 4] //makes horiz scrollbar taller
    },
    {
        "class": "scroll_bar_control",
        "content_margin": [1, 3] //makes vert scrollbar taller
    },
    {
        "class": "tab_label",
        "parents": [{"class": "tab_control", "attributes": ["selected"]}],
        //"fg": [30,30,30],
        "fg": [255,131,0] //change highlighted tab color
    }
]

Most of my info was learned here

I don't think you can change the scrollbars to system native style, but you can try some third part themes that with bright color scheme.

For example: Numix Theme. You can find more themes from Package Control.
