Abstract

The methods and systems of the present invention enable a user to perform eye exercises and training that may aid in relieving eye fatigue and eye strain. In general, the present invention teaches providing movement between associated images having a plurality of objects. When a viewer focuses on a central focal point interposed between the viewer's eyes and the associated images, the viewer perceives, in addition to the associated images, a merged image (also possibly having a plurality of objects) derived from the associated images. Then, by performing one of a number of suitable movements with the associated objects, the viewer's eyes are exercised. For example, by increasing the separation between the associated images along a horizontal axis while the viewer attempts to maintain the perception of the merged image, the viewer's eyes are exercised in such a manner that eye fatigue and eye strain may be relieved. The present invention further teaches a computer input device that has an ocular device incorporated therein. The ocular device has a stem, which in some cases is telescopic, and a focal tip. A viewer may utilize the ocular device to perform certain eye exercises.
