Sunday musing about eyesight
I was thinking about the feet and how over padded shoes and orthotics are trying to (most of the time) substitute for a weakness or poor quality in whatever muscles, ligaments etc, and wondering if the same might be true of glasses for vision...? I've worn glasses to see distance since I was about 26 (after a good few years staring at computer screens) and am passing back through 20-20 vision which I thought was due to age as suggested by optometrist and expecting it to get worse in the other direction in time. But maybe it's more than that - nutrition changes, not wearing sunglasses as much, being outside more, looking to the horizon... Was wondering why they didn't suggest some exercises instead of popping me straight onto prescription lenses (I expect it's a follow the money answer 🤔). Interested to know if anyone else has tried to / been able to correct their vision?

I’ve been thinking the same thing recently! I wear glasses for long distances and noticed the year I was studying on a screen they got significantly worse. But over the past year, I’ve had a lot more time to look and focus in the distance without my glasses and I have noticed I was starting to feel like my eyes were dealing with distance better. I did a Feldenkrais class that involved exercises for the eyes and face muscles and that was really the first time it dawned on me that these were muscles I was neglecting too. Super interesting to hear about the dietary factors, not something I considered. Cheers for discussion post, something id love to keep thinking about!
