If you have ever worn glasses, you have probably dealt with shady and untrustworthy optometrists. Besides all glasses in the US being owned by a simple monopoly in Italy that makes you have to pay to see, most of the time people in the US are given glasses when they do not need to have them. These are people like me who are born with perfect vision but have it degrade over time due to excess screen time and time spent mostly indoors.

I am not claiming to have a magical solution to computer-induced nearsightedness, but the science suggests that the only issue in this case is that your eyes are tense from constantly focusing on close objects, and the muscles in your eye that control your pupil are not able to relax, so the pupil can become thinner and direct light to the back of your eye which is what happens for people with perfect vision. The problem is muscles in your eye, and if you use subliminals for vision or spend time outdoors in places with sunlight, you will realize that you begin seeing clearer and clearer.

If you were born with myopia, it is possible you have an elongated eyeball and in that case you would really need glasses. In places like Russia they will not even prescribe glasses for people who do not have a certain threshold of vision, because they will cause your problem to get worse. When you are looking for glasses, keep in mind the extreme bias provided to everyone involved in the process due to material gains from getting everyone prescribed glasses.

    Glasses feel magical as someone with myopia lol, I go from being very, very low vision(legally blind) to being averagely sighted.

    I think sleeping in a totally dark room is good for sleep quality. True dark and natural sunlight (with protection as needed, UV also has aging effects) seem to be harder to get in the modern day.

      After my first time working at an outdoor venue where I was forced to face in the direction of harsh glare for no reason (we literally could have moved tables, it made it hard to serve people) my boss (who actually could not do anything as we were contractors lol) mentioned how the surface of your eye can just kinda die if not kept oxygenated by tears, burned by UV, or abraded by grit that’s unable to be cleared, but it will grow back pretty fast.

      A very dark room, proper sleep, eyedrops, hydration, and a hike/walk are all good for correcting mild eyesight problems, but you should still see an optometrist for more serious things. Also people should just stop gaming all night no need for those goofy glasses.
