Any opinions on this?
Babies, children and adults learn to see clear by first shifting on a new object: moving the visual attention from part to part on the object, becoming familiar with it, the brain visualizing, creating, storing a clear mental and visual picture of the object in the memory, imagination. In this way, the object is seen clear by the function of the brain activating, retrieving the clear memory picture of the object each time the eyes look at the object. The brain works with the eyes, eye muscles to move the eyes, visual attention on the object correct and see it clear. The object becomes familiar, easy to see and the brain, eyes relax, function perfect and the object is seen clear.
The pattern of eye movement can change, vary each time the eyes look at the object but the brain will also produce certain eye movements for that specific object, the brain knows how to move the eyes, visual attention on that objects specific shape; Example: The brain moves the eyes, visual attention differently on a round and a square shape.
Example: The eyes move the visual attention (center of the visual field) on the round areas of a apple, center, along edges, top, bottom, sides....
If the eyes try to move on the apple as if it has a square shape, squared edges⦠then the eyes will be moving, looking out into space sometimes, away from the apple. This will be diffusion, eccentric fixation, no central fixation because the eyes are not on the object . Moving the visual attention, center of the visual field along, around the edges, corners of a apple is different than moving along the edge of a square.
A memorized, familiar object activates easy eye movement, shifting part to part, perfectly on the object, perfect central fixation, the object is seen clear.
Familiar objects are easy to see, relax the mind, eyes, vision is clear.
This is why Dr. Bates advises keeping a familar, memorized eyechart in the classroom.
