Emmetropia

"parallel rays from infinity are focused perfectly upon the retina"

"Sadly, this condition is enjoyed by only a minority of the population."

Tomorrow morning I will be in optometry clinic again. Last week I watched the eye exams for a couple veterans. I've never had an eye exam myself so all the fancy equipment was relatively new to me.

I learned that age-related eye changes start at age 42 and stabilize by age 60. The lens becomes less flexible.

The pressure of the eye fluid changes throughout the day.


Pressures change thoughout the day. Your stress hormone levels change throughout the day, too.

I feel pressures beyond those in my eyes today.
