In context of curing imperfect eyesight, I've found that it's not productive to try to analyze the subconscious and psychological issues that originally caused the strain to build up. It's just the up...

Central fixation is not a process but a state. It cannot be "performed" but reached. When you look at a new point, notice that the point you've been looking at one step before is now seen worse. Seei...
