I'm going to work on fixing my lazy eye.

Since.. forever.. I've had a lazy left eye. Can't really see out of it very well, When I do try to use just my left eye by covering my right.. the centre of the image is black, obscured...

It's not the eye though.. it's perfectly healthy.. It's how my brain interprets the information that's all wrong.

Having a lazy eye.. it a right pain.. frequent eye stress, headaches.. difficulty reading.. putting up with it most my life.. only now am I actually making an attempt to make it better.

There are a bunch of things I could do. That I need to improve.

Tracking is pretty iffy for me, It's not as smooth as it should be. I was thinking I could make a little webapp that shows a coloured box that moves from side to side at random but acceptable speeds to practice tracking objects with my eyes.
Would work really well on my ultra wide monitor.

Convergence is something I should already be doing.. That's done by focusing on the point of a pen with both eyes and bringing that pen towards your nose.
Basically you are trying to cross your eyes while focusing on an object to make both eye remain in sync.

Another exercise I can do is covering my right eye for a period of time each day to force my left eye to work more. This ones particularly difficult to do as if I cover my right eye and don't really concentrate I'm effectively blind as my vision is so bad with just my left eye I can't read or make out most objects.

I'm thinking about getting an appointment at a place up in York that does like.. proper eye tests, the kind of optometrist who really digs into the whys, how's, and what not of your eyes.
Sick of this half assed tests you get from places like Specsavers and the likes.

Anyways, this is all a precursor to me learning to drive. Having good vision and a decent set of glasses or contact lenses would honestly do wonders for my wellbeing.

And being able to drive, I'd be able to justify getting that Mazda mx5 I've always wanted.. if I can afford it some how.

Anyways all in due time. The first appointment alone will cost over £200 so we'll see how it goes.
