Tips, Tricks, and Notes
I have SafeEyes installed on my computer. It's supposed to remind you to take a break from looking at the screen. I just got close-up glasses (differentials), and I have found that it's helpful for reminding me to check and make sure I'm wearing them! I have also found that setting it to interrupt once every minute (for 1-3 seconds, I forget how long) provides just enough time to make sure I'm active focusing. Every minute I'm on the computer.

My Glasses History
I figured I should track this somewhere and maybe someday I will make enough progress that this level of detail will be interesting to someone besides me. Or maybe just knowing my context is useful. Also adding other non-glasses stuff that could be relevant.
Mid-October 2021
Close-ups
- OD/Right: -3.25 sphere, -1.5 cylinder, 171 axis
- OS/Left: -3 sphere, -1.75 cylinder, 176 axis
- Zenni frame 411516 because it's got half a dozen colors so I can keep track of new glasses easier, and it's the cheapest metal frames they sell. These frames are blue.
Mid-September 2021
End Myopia discovery
- Found endmyopia.org somewhere.
Eating more fiber
- Figured out I can get most of my vitamins and minerals from 2 cups cooked greens and a can of beans every day. My fiber intake just went up dramatically and permanently.

- Right: -4.75 sphere, -1.5 cylinder, 171 axis

January(ish) 2020
Checkup
- Talked optometrist into just checking eye health. Eye health was fine.
June 2019
Quit refined sugar
- Did someone refine the fiber out? I won't eat it. Juice? Unacceptable. Honey? Refined by bees. Maple syrup? Sure, if I'm gnawing on a maple tree. Cane sugar? Sure, if I'm eating the cane alone with it. And so forth.
- NOTE: This took me 20 years of effort before it finally stuck. If at first you don't succeed, try, try, and try again. I get refined sugar on my birthdays.
