Near-Far Focus Shift
Alternating focus between a close and a distant point
How to
Hold a thumb at arm's length and focus on it clearly for a few seconds. Then shift your focus to an object 15-20 feet away, holding that focus for a few seconds too. Alternate slowly back and forth.
Benefits
- Retrains the eye's focusing muscle after long stretches of only near focus
- A close relative of the eye-doctor-recommended 20-20-20 habit
- Simple to do at a desk with nothing but your own thumb
Practice
Repeat the near-far alternation 10 times, breathing normally.
