Ask HN: Do your eyes bug you even though your prescription is "correct"?

I’m digging into an idea around eyeglasses, screen-time, and vision discomfort. If you wear prescription glasses but still get headaches, eye strain, or blurry vision after long screen days, I’d love to chat briefly (20–30 min).

Pure research, zero selling.

Interested? Drop a comment below or email me directly at jbornhorst [at] gmail.com. I’ll coordinate a convenient time to talk.

I used an app iOS “eye movement training” for free post concussion.

The slide rule looking eye training is also kind of rough. A string with two or three beads on it. All fun things that could make me puke from doing too much.

This is part of what's referred to as "vision therapy". Optometrists would tell you to go to a paid expert---because purportedly some people do it wrong---but IMO you can just YouTube it.

I don’t think YouTube is the solution. It took me 1 year plus to recover and the iPad part was take home work. Much more intensive in person.
