'''Pseudomyopia''' is a temporary shift towards near-sightness and occurs when the [[ciliary muscle]] inside of your eye temporarily locks up due to extended periods of closeup focus, resulting in [[blur]]red distance vision. This is usually the condition people get before they go to the optometrist, and then go onto to develop [[lens-induced myopia]]. If the ciliary muscle spasm is not relieved, then that muscle spasm's degree can worsen over time. Now, it will take longer to fully relax that muscle. Proper [[eye strain]] management and [[active focus]] habits will help to tackle this.

The [[20-20-20 rule]] is useful to avoid a lock up of the ciliary muscle.
The [[3 hour rule]] is useful to avoid a lock up of the [[ciliary muscle]], but the [[20-20-20 rule]] is questionable.
