Lately I have been having problems while doing close up work or work
on the computer in which after I spend 15 or more minutes focussed at

I've read here that it's usual for myopia to decrease after say, age
50 but what is the usual shift?  How much improvement to myopia is
average or usual?  And over what period?  Does it stabilise again?

Can the difference in how people see be explained?  By that I mean why people
