Hans, what brought on your eye problems?
Mine was from 'fixed focus'.
As a Tattoo Artist I was looking at a fixed distance of around 14 inches for up to 12 hours a day, with only very brief moments at looking further (looking up to see who walked into the Studio etc). I worked like this for 16+ years!
(people working on computers all day run the same risk if they don't attempt to focus on things in the distance every few minutes while working)
The muscles in my eyes pretty much froze in that position making it hard to focus on anything further out.
My close-up focus was amazing.
On the old $5 and $10 notes were some fine print (almost micro-print) which was good for testing eyes. I could read both easily.
But know, probably through age, I am starting to lose my close focus too. I find myself moving things away from me to focus on them.
But I still need glasses to get sharp focus for anything further than about 1 metre.
So my original problem (no distant focus) was work based, my current problem (no close focus) is age.
