That’s just plain goofy. Shut up and sing.

[Mr. K]

McCartney must be the coolest guy who ever lived.

There is no pretentiousness in him. When you listen to him you get exactly what he thinks, no BS, no acting.

It is so refreshing just to watch an interview with him.

If I want advice on important stuff, I’ll ask Ringo.

Maybe it was the pot smoking, it works for glaucoma.

[erlayman]

Vegetarianism is more likely.

“...your eyes are muscles whereas your ears aren’t, so you can’t exercise your ears...”

My uncle taught me how to wiggle my ears many years ago. I still do it every once in a while. It’s a great party trick and will embarrass your grandkids when you do it.

[Veggie Todd]

Can’t he just let it be?

[Sans-Culotte]

It sounds like he is exercising the muscles that align and turn the eyes, not the eyes themselves. I don’t see how it would help with actual vision (nearsighted, farsighted, astigmatism, etc.), but it might help in keeping one’s eyes aligned. I have had surgery on my eye muscles so I should probably try his exercises.

[Exit148]

There are several good eye exercises that are easy and very effective. Do a search on them. The trick is to do them daily.

I’m probably one of the oldest FReepers here, and altho I have reading glasses, I have no problem reading or typing here. Same with driving or watching TV glasses. Have them, but don’t need or use them.

Paul seems like a nice dude, smokes a ton of weed though. All the time.

Who gives a s*** ?

[Born to Conserve]

Lenses harden. Period.

I’m nearsighted. When I was a teen, I could focus anywhere between 1/2” to 18”. Now, in my 60s, I can only focus at 18”. I have the same exact prescription I had when I was 12.

[Mariner]

Darn it.

He could have told us that 40 years ago.

Dont you all remember that Mariette Hartley pushed this method in the early 2000’s? The commercials were everywhere.
The See Clearly Method.

Don’t know about his eyesight, but Ringo looks amazing for 80 years old! He says it’s from eating carrots!

[Chauncey Gardiner]

So where are the schwanstouker exercises...
