Improving eyesight
-
I was the same with sunglasses and looking at the sun. Not directly for long, but I like challenging myself. When I suntan, I often look to check where the sun is and accidentally blind myself for a sec lol.
I probably noticed the seasonal improvements more because I am nearsighted. I wear contacts and glasses, have since I was like 15. Several times when I've been outside in bright sunlight without glasses, I notice that I can see so much better. It's like instant improvement.

@Hearthfire This is an answer to both you and luke.
So. I read on twitter a dude healed his nearsightedness by staring at the early morning sun and the later at evening sun for months. Don't remember what poster it was but the sun thing is interesting. I think contact lenses (which I usually wear) is not very good for getting sun in the eyes. Kind of blocks it.
Update.
So today I ordered new glasses, followed the recommendations from the book/pamphlet and got -2.75 on both eyes (-3.25 and -3.0 from my prescribtion) and no cylinder or axis adjustment since I only have minor astigmatism (-0,75). Will be interesting to see if I get any improvements!

@heyman you can achieve the same effect as lower lenses by simply looking at things at the "point of slight blur"

@heyman i will read it now
he has the right idea
yars ago I had the idea of using adjustable lenses, and I would adjust the strength of the lens for every activity I did

it does work
in nature at the lake i can see like a half mile away individual trees in the forest
it’s from being inside and books/screens and not looking far away alot
otherwise my prescription is like -3.75 iirc indoors in a lifestyle of office type work
i can literally drive a vehicle without a need for glasses when spending most of the time outdoors -
@Luke theres a study showing looking into red light is actually good

Yes I have seen that contacts block some of the UV light, but I have definitely experienced it both ways where if I have them off, the vision improves, and with them on it improves as well. Probably less of an effect, but still.

if you hypothetically were in a plane crash and lived on a desert island, your eyesight would improve

We have to go back, Kate!
