Ciliary spasm! When your eye gets locked up in close up. Living within our four walls just now, so many of us stuck at home, working from computers and having a social life through screens, surely I am not the only one whose eyes are giving them trouble. My ciliary muscle is in spasm, and this is holding me back from progressing on my EndMyopia journey. I don't want to be in visionlimbo for 6 months I want to keep improving my vision and fixing my eyesight despite any chaos the world may throw at me.
So, I am setting myself a Ciliary Spasm Release Challenge!! And I invite YOU to join me!
This week, I will be making sure I treat my eyes like the precious treasures they are, and not abusing them with excessive closeup, even though I am now working from home, on a computer. As a result of current circumstances, my work now involved me editing videos for my work place so we can stay in touch with our peeps. This week I am editing 5 videos, and each one can easily take 16 hours. That's a lot of screen time!!
So, if I can do it, anyone can!
So, take those measurements (links to the EndMyopia vision calculator and Snellen charts below), get those good habits happening, and tune back in next week to see how it went for me and to let me know how it went for you!
And remember to like and subscribe if you enjoyed the video. Thanks!

Using the reduced lens method, and need another pair of glasses?
Clearly are an online retailer, based in Australia especially great for those of us based in Australia or NZ and is available worldwide.
I use them for all my glasses in my EndMyopia journey, and they have been great.
I joined as an affiliate because I was already talking about them so much anyway. If you use this link to go to the Clearly website, it will help me out and cost you nothing more, so if you go this way, I thank you.

A little about my eyesight:
I have had glasses for astigmatism since I was 7 years old, but I only needed them for specific circumstances, like reading blackboards or night driving (not when I was 7, obviously).
At the age of 22 I landed an office job, and with my lovely new money I bought a smart phone. 6 months later, I had myopia and had to wear glasses fulltime.
My prescription has been going up since then, and I have been freaking out as I sit back and watch my eyesight deteriorate, feeling helpless and scared.
I was up to 3 in my left eye, and 2.5 in my right eye when I discovered Jake Steiner and the EndMyopia method.
I am still only a few months in, but already I am seeing at almost 2.25 in my left eye 2.00 in my right eye. Small changes, but any improvement is amazing when my eyes have only been deteriorating for the last 10 years.
I am loving knowing more about eyesight and how eyes function. It's fascinating, and learning so much feels empowering. I love that I no longer feel helpless about my vision. I have also quit my smartphone so I could get over my screen addiction. I even bought a Nokia to get me out of temptation's way! Since doing this, I have been making progress with my vision, but also have regained so much of my life and time and perspective, so this vision journey is definitely having positive knockon effects in my life as a whole.
