#59 session

Yeah, things went well.  The double images this morning were pretty close to one another.  Last night, I spent the entire time fighting the hypertropia.  It was nice.  This morning there was very little discernible fighting against the hypertropia, although it is my suspicion that it is always there in some capacity.  I did a good amount of fudging.  I did find that immediately after I fudged a bit, that the brain engaged the lazy eye more and then I started to fight the hypertropia more than before.

Saccades went really well.  By the way that the saccades are going it feels as though I could be a few weeks left.  After about five or seven minutes of saccades, I find that I start to land directly on targets with no real need to adjust.  When I saccade to the bottom right there is still a little bit of lag, although when I do the saccades in the afternoon and at night time the lag is minimal.  It's just a nice workout.  I forgot to mentally occupy the lazy eye this time around when I did the saccades.

It's funny observing how my vision is different when I go about my day.  I am now aware of the two different ways of seeing simultaneously and I can sort of imagine what stereopsis is like now.  I remember that Susan Barry mentioned somewhere that when she improved her vision her stereo ability began with objects that were close to her and then as she got better, her stereo ability would function on increasingly more distance objects.  Well, right now as I am typing, that distance has gone to my keyboard and my work area... so the speakers and keyboard and toothpaste thingy are pretty depthy looking to me.  Anyway.  So.  I got that going for me.  Which is nice.
