A list of common EndMyopia terms:

Active Focus

Clearing up blur and challenging your blur horizon

Normalized

Glasses worn for distance vision. Combined with Active Focus as the primary stimulus to improve eyesight

Differentials

Very under-corrected glasses that are worn for activities requiring near vision ( Close-up ). They correct just enough to clearly see what you're working on.
