It's pretty simple. [[Normalized glasses]], combined with [[distance vision]] and relaxing your [[ciliary muscle]] ([[Active Focus]]). Also, making sure your [[screen habits]] aren't undoing all of that hard work, so use [[differentials]] or no glasses for [[close work]], depending on your eyes. | |||
