Shifting similar as reading a text?
#1
Hello to all Bates enthusiasts,

These are my questions regarding the shifting method.

Does shifting means simply moving the eyes ALL the time? And doing so will break the habit of staring?

Since when normal sighted person looks at things at afar, their eyes shift rapidly in small amounts, the myopic person will not be able to imitate this subconscious shifting of the eyes quickly, what do you suggest to a myopic person to start with the shifting method?

How looking at the top of words/letters when reading is a help to the eyes in terms of shiting? How is it done properly to avoid the problem of trying to see the whole letter at once since to my understanding we only see the top part of a letter.

If the shifting is very 'mechanical' and not smooth, is that strain?

David and other members, please help shed some light to these questions. Thanks.

In an old thread http://www.iblindness.org/community/view...thing+cure someone recommended to download a program that builds familiarity to swinging. I did download it and it seems quite relaxing--

See the Shifting thread in the Method of the Month forum. That should help clear up those issues.

Relaxed eyes will shift normally, and it can't be done consciously, but consciously practicing shifting by means of the exercise described there can help stimulate it.
