I recently made a minor change to my workout. I'm now doing about eight minutes of fixation card exercise and another eight minutes of large bead jumps with the Brock String.
The goal that I'm currently working toward with the fixation cards is to get the images to come in clearly for both eyes simultaneously at all distances. Just a few days ago I appear to have made very significant progress in that regard. When using only one eye at a time I can get the image to come in clearly when the paper is about three inches from my eye. That is a normal accommodation limit for most people. But when I use both eyes one of the eyes gets much blurrier sooner. But I noticed the other day that I can get much closer than I could before. This seemed to coincide when I began implementing those bead jumps into my regimen a few days ago.
So that's good. I did seem to have a particularly good eye day yesterday. I was looking at my eyes in the mirror as well. The deviation---it looks pretty good. Sometimes I forget and don't realize that I'm making progress until I check in like that. The workouts have just become a part of my life, I guess. It'll be weird to think of a day when I'm not doing any vision therapy.
