Can a Smartphone App Improve Your Eyesight?


A new smartphone app promises to help reduce or even eliminate your need for reading glasses. The Wall Street Journal says a 30-person study found that after 12 weeks, GlassesOff participants on average could read letters that were 1.6 times smaller than they could previously. Users spend 12 to 15 minutes, 3 times a week training their eyes with the app. Studies show it’s most effective on people between 40 and 60 years old.
