Tell me more about your eye exercises - that sounds interesting!
One of my friends aunt's runs a new age hippy eye clinic...they insisted I get my near sighted ass over there and try it out. Wikipedia is not kind to eye improvement methods. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_therapy
I checked with my opthalmologist and they said it couldn't hurt.. so I tried out the hippie approach to vision restoration.
It's a weird mix of indian meditation, massage, resting, eye exercises, motion exercises, focus exercises.... I'm very incredulous, but I wanted to give it a fair shake.. so like a asshole I'm tracing the imagined shape of a intricate pattern with my chin and eyes closed...... And other things. After about a month I had to reduce the strength of my glasses a bit... And another month reduce a bit more.
It could be placebo, it could be my nerdy lifestyle was holding me back and this program changed my environment... But I'll take it.
