Is there a similar situation with a left lazy, to the case of a right lazy eye? And just flipped in terms of the gender traits as a factor...

A question about glasses:
Should I be wearing  the - 5 reduced or -10 dioptres, my strong, glasses. If so how long a day shall I wear them ?

My answer:
The wearing of the -5.00 versus -10:00 is dependent on your becoming aware of when there is distress in and around your eyes. The idea is for you to train yourself to become aware when there is physical or mental tension, to check in whether it is a good time to wear the -5.00. 

Basically, the weaker lens prescription acts as a parasympathetic stimulant that is, the lens invites you to become more relaxed when you receive feedback that your eyesight is not as sharp. The difficulty with strong lens prescription is that when the eyesight is sharp, you are less aware of the build up
of tension.

Okay you humans out there, let me share a little about how frogs view vision. We are pretty smart and can show you guys and dolls some tricks. Croaaaak.

The difference between you and I, is that you have a thinking mind and I DO NOT. Plusses and minuses I suppose!

Plus first. I feel, smell, taste and hear everything! OOOPS, forgot about seeing. Yes I see with the purity of what I feel. I hear that many of you see with thinking. OUCH, that must be very boring. Just looking, looking, looking and occasionally feeling. Try it some time. Feel first, then observe, then experience. This is my case. So long!

Member Esta Denroche wrote this to me: She titled it Clarity, colour and depth
The scientist in me would love to be able to tell you, the scientist, exactly what it was that worked the magic. Unfortunately, it was not a controlled experiment - it was just an intuitive interaction with life. It could have been:

- the homoeopathic eye drops
- the eye fitness exercises from you book "Seeing without glasses"
- holding mudras while travelling to and fro from work
- a deeper acknowledgement of my fear of death
- ongoing treatment with TCM
- the agonising eye strain from computer work that said: "We can't go on like this!"
- a depressive phase with a great feeling of vulnerability
- my therapeutic glasses (I had found them impossible until I realised recently that they were a little too strong and sitting further away from the computer reduced my panic when using them)
- a thousand and one other things, or
- everything working and interweaving together.

Exactly what it was, does not really matter. The result is wonderful! And it happened so quickly, almost overnight.

My eyes seem to be developing/have developed a friendly or at least a working relationship with each other - although it is still very one-sided. The world has become so colourful and so bright. I am noticing things I have never seen before in my familar environment. The depth is amazing, but also the breadth - frog-eye panoramas. The clarity gives me the impression that everything, including the windows, has been cleaned. More frequently than in the past, I experience, for example, what it is like to look at a whole carriage full of subway passengers in one glance!

What fascinates me is the consciousness behind my seeing - the conscious switching on of the seeing process, a going out into the world, which I also switch off (usually unconsciously) when I am overloaded with external stimulation or when my thought processes are so strong that they draw me inside of myself.

Roberto, this is not an easy journey but it is fascinating and very rewarding. Thank you.
