Line 1:

'''Distance vision''' is, for practical purposes, anything over 6 meters or 20 feet. Because the difference in lens power from 6m to infinity is less than 0.2 [[Diopters]], the limiting factor is less about ability to focus than simply the resolution of the retina (the number of the [[rods and cones]] in the back of your eye).

As far as the [[ciliary muscle]] is concerned, your edge of blur is distance vision, no matter what the absolute distance, but you will have [[convergence]] at a near vision angle when looking at edge of blur through [[differentials]]. This is a possible mechanism of action for improvement, when the visual cortex notices the discrepancy between focus and convergence.

As far as the [[ciliary muscle]] is concerned, your [[Blur Horizon|edge of blur]] is distance vision, no matter what the absolute distance, but you will have [[convergence]] at a near vision angle when looking at edge of blur through [[differentials]]. This is a possible mechanism of action for improvement, when the [[visual cortex]] notices the discrepancy between focus and [[convergence]].

In the EndMyopia system, we use [[normalized]] glasses for outdoor work, for reading street signs, for looking out windows, and other distance vision tasks.
