I followed that up with a more solid doublel -1.75 end of last month. THis month I'm shooting for double -1.25s(-1.25 for each eye). I think I'm at -1.5 now. I'm on a roll now.

I discovered that around strong -1.75/weak -1.5, it became much easier to cycle through plus lenses since your eyeball won't lock up anymore. I was using the +1.75 lens at the time. Then +2.0, Then ...

I do think excessive close work even before the period of strain can slow down vision improvement. Of all the eye exams I've had, there were a couple times I scored better than I expected. One when ...
