Some days, my eyes are so tired and just hurt. Even if I don't even do my VT homework that day! I can get stereo and sometimes my eyes just lock in on it! And it huts! The prisms in my glasses take care of the vertical alignment, but the horizontal I have to really dial in. Ouch! There have been times over the past week or so when I had a lock on stereopsis when doing close work like working in the kitchen - something that's about 12 - 18" from my eyes. I can see depth and I can actually control the depth by really pulling in my focus. It's like a camera trick where you zoom in and pan out at the same time to give an amplified sense of depth. Other times, my eyes just do their normal thing and alternate and the world is relatively flat.
This has, however, effected my ability to read. I'm getting a fuzzy image up close if I don't fuse the images. I'm OK on the computer because it's far enough out from where I normally get a fusion lock and depth, so my brain is happy suppressing as usual. But book reading distance is different. There was 1 day where I had a really hard time reading my phone or Kindle. I had to really pull in my focus to do it.
My eyes are tired and itchy from my allergies today. They just don't want to cooperate. I tried doing my homework, but was just struggling, so I put it down. I'm finding that my biggest struggle is getting that balance between my eyes to overcome the suppression issues. I can easily get depth at close range but with suppression - I don't see all the parts of the tranaglyphs. I seem to have to concentrate on one aspect or another. I'm not sure which is the most basic that I should really focus on.
And so we plod onward!
