:{{Re|Heddy}} I know Jake has attempted to describe it as a principle, but he also says "Active focus is a key activity..." in this page [https://endmyopia.org/active-focus-links/ Focus: The Link List (+ Video Explainer)]. I think Jake wants to call it a principle because he wants to differentiate it from eye exercises. However, it still makes no sense to call it a principle, because most people consider active focus as something they do, as in "do active focus". One cannot do a principle.[[User:SilentNote|SilentNote]] ([[User talk:SilentNote|talk]]) 14:09, 11 June 2020 (UTC) | :{{Re|Heddy}} I know Jake has attempted to describe it as a principle, but he also says "Active focus is a key activity..." in this page [https://endmyopia.org/active-focus-links/ Focus: The Link List (+ Video Explainer)].

"excessive sharpness is the stimulus that increases the axial length of the eye"... that's a new one. Do we know what that means, and is there evidence that it causes elongation ?

:{{re|Divenal}} 1)Accommodation is the process of bringing a subject into focus. It is not limited to an increase in power alone [https://medicine.uiowa.edu/eye/patient-care/glossary-eye-terms Glossary of Eye Terms]. The reason I wrote these sentences is to differentiate the conscious control of skeletal muscles vs autonomic control of smooth muscles without being too technical. 2)Wait... are we not doing links??[[User:SilentNote|SilentNote]] ([[User talk:SilentNote|talk]]) 14:10, 11 June 2020 (UTC) | :{{re|Divenal}} 1)Accommodation is the process of bringing a subject into focus.
