The Myth of Correct Eyesight in the Unspectacled People

Do all the people who have no eyesight problems in their young age have a focused mindset and a ready & relaxed muscular system in their bodies? They certainly have if in their 40s and 50s also they don't need using spectacles either for near sight or for distant vision or both.

Alas, but it is not so. How many people on earth do we find who never needed using spects in their old age especially for reading near if they didn't need them for seeing far in their young age? Very very few!

Generally young people who never had any problem of sight in their young age start having it as they approach their 40s. the reason is that their eyesight had never been flawless even in their young age but for the kind of flaw they had (latent hyperopia), the lens of their eyes could always help them by fattening and forming the image on their retina. But with age the said lens goes on reducing its flexibility and hence its capacity to fatten as much as from the level of 14 diopters at age 10, it reduces to 7 at age 30, reducing further to 3.5 at age 40 to 45, still further to 1.5 at 55 until it vanishes completely reducing its diopter power to 0 by the age around 70 years. When it comes down to 3.5 at age 40 to 45, people start feeling a problem in reading near whereas with its further advance to 1.5 by the age of 55, even far sight becomes affected and bifocals are needed to see the world clearly. This is called presbyopia that is only a special case of hyperopia i.e. the latent one.

In case of myopia, lens can not come as a rescue as it did for the people afflicted with latent hyperopia since for that purpose it would have needed to flatten rather than fatten which it simply can not do since there is no mechanism that can make it do so. So the myopics feel the grunt of faulty eyesight early in life than the latent hyperopics do.

It is only a question of time when the axe falls on your eyesight but it has already fallen on your general health and your performance level. How many people are there who rarely go to a physician or do without medicines? Aren't they really rare? How many people are there who have a high performance level not only in one field of their specialty but in all the fields they participate in their lives? Be it the corporate performance, performance in sports, academic performance, sex performance, performance in relationships, their personal energetic performance in life or performance in the field of keeping and maintaining a flawless health throughout their life!

So isn't it better to render the axe ineffective immediately? Isn't it better to be a ready and relaxed person in your body and a focused one in your mind right now and here?!
