Reducing From -1.75 Diopters
A parent writes that their teenage daughter was prescribed glasses at -1.75 in the spring of the prior year but never wore them. Practicing active focus almost daily, she can now see the classroom whiteboard, read street signs, and read the Starbucks menu, though no exact current measurement was taken. The parent separately reports reducing their own reading glasses from 1.25 to 0.75 in three-month steps.
