Thread: Myopia manual
Post: Re: Myopia manual

Thread: Correct Eye Movement Pattern
Post: Re: Correct Eye Movement Pattern

I'm no expert, but I believe that you are maybe being too methodical about it, and this is producing strain. The eyes of those with perfect vision move as you describe, but training yourself to do so...

Thread: Correct Eye Movement Pattern

Good to hear. I've learned so much from my 11-year-old daughter who has good vision. When she's done palming, she often remarks that she feels weird, like her eyes are not even there. And she alway...
