You're welcome! I get that feeling too, makes me uneasy. Best of luck on your eyesight improvement journey!

Congrats on the improvement! Progress will most likely slow down for me too, from what I heard it's common to have quick gains in the beginning. After that it's supposed to be .75 diopters per year, so roughly what you're get

Well I can see 20/20 with my new weaker glasses on the Snellen eye chart, so I don't think I just got used to worse vision. I will be going to the eye doctor soon again and will hopefully get a similar prescription from her as fro

That's very common, you use weaker glasses for near work then, so around -6 or -6.5 depending on your distance from your screen. You can find more information on that on the endmyopia page or wiki by looking for "differential glas

I always use weaker glasses on my computer now (around 1.5 diopters less than my full correction). I just reduce that reduced correction step by step (recommended is .25 diopter reductions, .5 worked for me too though) when it feels right (

Yea, that's sort of the founder's style. He has a very ironic and not very serious way of writing that drives a lot of people away. He does it intentionally though, as he wants people to really look into the topic and understand i

Oh no worries, I didn't understand it in a negative way. I'm always happy to learn new things - especially in this case as it does sound important and I haven't really been paying attention to PD.

Best of luck! I first heard about it 3 years or so ago, but also dismissed it until I found out I could just try it out at almost no cost with glasses from Aliexpress. One of my best decisions of the past few years :)

Oh interesting, thanks for letting me know. I'll have to look into that topic a bit more :) My PD is around 64mm and I'll be receiving glasses with that PD soon. It will be interesting to see if I notice any difference to my other

I'm not familiar with it and can't look into it as I'm on a slow connection right now. It sounds similar to the endmyopia method, which has been working very well for me.

All near-work affects eyes, so books too. You can look up "near induced transient myopia" on google scholar. I'm on a slow connection, so I can't right now, sorry.

I have some and haven't noticed much of a difference. I think f.lux is preferrable, as you should be getting blue light during the day, just not at night.

I had no issues with that luckily, but if you order a custom prescription, many aliexpress sellers also ask for your pupillary distance. With zenni you always give your PD I think (I haven't tried it, but zenni is very popular in the e

Since march of this year I stopped following my eye doctor's advice ("wear your glasses as much as possible otherwise your brain gets lazy", which is proven BS) and looked into endmyopia (i think i even read about it on HN),

No, I'm not assuming that - Europe is experiencing a higher inflation too. Diversification is generally a good idea in investments, many say it's the only free lunch you can get :)

Well diversified (international) index funds seem like the best option to me. Companies can increase prices with inflation.

Tough to say, I can see how some of that can be bothersome. But once it impacts others health there has to be a limit in my opinion. Maybe he can do the spraypainting outside or in a garage?

I agree, I had that experience too. SO duplicates are bad but official documentation pages of libraries would be very good, so I guess it'll be a bit difficult to determine which pages should be allowed as there will be quite a few dom
