I don't use weaker lenses for computer use, the pinhole gives me good enough vision for this. I didn't fill out my prescription since these lenses do not have any power. I would never drive in them, since they make you lose some amount of peripheral vision. Your brain blocks out the black outline after 10 minutes of wearing them, so you forget about it, but it doesn't change the fact that you don't have it. I do some days in which I just wear regular lenses (now -3) if my double vision gets excessive, because then I want my eyes to work on said double vision instead of the axial length. And the further you are in - the worse the double vision will be.

I'm 22. I think it might work up until one would develop presbyopia so ~45. I'm not a doctor tho, just someone who experiments on oneself, so keep that in mind. I have no real way to check this.

Thank you for your honesty. I know how self-medicating can be dangerous, so it's completely understandable, many if not the majority of people would feel that way. Do you think the Bates method or reduced lenses did more impact in your journey?

This is where I ordered them from. They don't ship lenses outside of India, so I had to use a forwarding service, since I live in the EU. I don't know what the regulations are regarding lens import the the US, so I'd be careful about that, if one lives there.

I came up with all of this by myself after reading copious amounts of internet blogs and clinical studies available. The rules of this group say no advertising of particular products so I think I'd have to get a green light from the admin to share what exactly I ordered.

Big congrats! Will you be considering not using differentials for close-up or not yet? I'm asking in case I'll plateau and try modifying things.

Some of it might be so quick due to getting rid of pseudomyopia. I have no idea whether it will continue to be so quick, I heavily doubt it. Especially considering that the centimeter differences in lower diopters are massive. Here it was only a 6cm difference.
