The Myopic Eye when reading with glasses on is strained

When reading or doing near work with glasses on, the eye’s ciliary (focusing) muscles contract and tighten.

The Myopic Eye when reading with glasses off is strained

When you remove your glasses to do near work, your eye’s ciliary (focusing) muscles are able to immediately relax, preventing accommodative eye strain from occurring.
