I haven't spent as much time at divergence the past few days as I would have liked to but I am still at least getting some practise in. Tonight I have continued practising divergence which seems to be going at a slow progress but I think I am getting somewhere. I seem to always come up with 4 cups instead of 3 and with a little effort can get it into 3. This is going away but sometimes I think when I have overworked these eyes it goes funny.
I also decided to try and transfer these skills onto the eye charts as this is the next phase: the In and Out Method where you converge on near letter, converge on far letter, diverge on near letter, diverge on far letter. I can't seem to diverge without having a distance object to help in the background, so a chart on the wall is out of the question at the moment. So tonight I took one of the three cups and then help a letter chart near my face. I converged onto the thre cups which I was holding out and then converged onto the letter on the chart near my face. I did this with divergence as well. Divergence came up much clearer for me than convergence and I felt like I was squinting on the letter when converging which was weird. I found it very easy to transfer the skills though without a wall being behind them. However as I got to the third letter divergence became a little tricky as the letters overlapped as I was doing it, like I was having a dizzy spell. I think my divergence strength is very weak as I believe this meshing of letters and overlaping is the same as when I see 4 cups. As a result I am going to spend a little more time focusing on strengthening divergence before I move on.
I must say that though this is challenging and I wonder how I am going to transfer it completely to looking at near letter and far letter. Also I wonder how I am going to edge my distances too. I can barely see as it is so things are going to be very close to begin with. I really hope though something gives me a sign when I start doing that.
We will see.
