If you try to do close work with distance glasses on, you will get "nearpoint stress" and if you tell the eye doctor about it you will be given a stronger prescription. This is the cycle of progressiv...

Jwlboyce (James), my vision fluctuates a lot too. I see it as 1) better than having it never change and be stuck, 2) a sign that it's re-calibrating, trying to figure out how to make it clearer, and 3...

Good for you! I think the "wanting to see" mindset is essential, maintaining visual interest and curiosity. This will naturally keep you seeking out small details to focus on, and is very different fr...

Yes, the long slow blinks can be very relaxing, like a mini-palming session. Reward yourself with this as much as possible! When doing the long swing your body and eyes and gaze should flow smoothly ...

What you call "sketch" I call "shift", and shifts can be very small distances, from the top of a letter to the bottom. See if you can shift smaller distances when you practice, and then you'll hardly ...

OK, thanks for correcting me, but it still sounds too good to be true. Most of us were given perfect bodies and eyes at birth, but managed to create lopsided posture or swayback or pigeon toes or myop...

What I've heard anecdotally about this is that you have to keep wearing the lenses all night every night and then you can see more clearly during the day, that it's not a permanent fix. I'm thinking, ...
