Children May Improve Their Sight by
Consciously Doing the Wrong Thing
——
Children often make a great effort to see the blackboard and other
distant objects in school. It helps them to overcome this habit to
have them demonstrate just what the strain to see does.
Tell them to fix their attention on the smallest letter they can
see from their seats, to stare at it, to concentrate on it, to partly
close their eyelids—in short, to make as great an effort as possible
to see it.
The letter will blur, or disappear altogether, and the whole card
may become blurred, while discomfort, or pain in the eyes or head,
will be produced.
Now direct them to rest their eyes by palming. The pain or
discomfort will cease, the letter will come out again, and other
letters that they could not see before may come out also.
After a demonstration like this children are less likely to make
an effort to see the blackboard, or anything else; but some children
have to repeat the experiment many times before the subconscious
inclination to strain is corrected.
