Eye Exercises for Focus

One common eye exercise involves shifting your focus between near and far objects. Here's how it works, according to provided reference:

  • Near Focus: Hold your thumb approximately 10 inches from your face and focus on it for 15 seconds. Alternatively, use a near object with a letter to engage your focusing system more effectively.

  • Far Focus: After 15 seconds, shift your gaze to a target about 20 feet (6 meters) away and maintain focus for another 15 seconds.

  • Repetition: Return your focus to your thumb and repeat the process.
