Hey! We're back to good California weather and maybe lower PG&E bills.
The Sun provides vitamin D and there as a correlation between that and
helping eyesight.

There is a rule in ayurveda that states the sun can improve weak
vision. Today is a sunny day in SF, so I tested this rule to see if
it works. The morning started out with my usual double vision. So, I
started doing garden work at the garden out in the sun. A few minutes
later I noticed that the garden statues and ornaments in the yard
started to look clearer. So, I drove my car to have lunch at an
Indian restaurant a few blocks away and I could see well enough to
drive through the streets fairly safely..
So, I learned that being out in the sun doing some activity is good
exercise and necessary to maintain good vision.
This principle ties in with a certain eye exercise to improve vision.
The exercise is called the swing. It requires one to swing the body
back and forth with the legs as the center or the fulcrum of the
swing. This is supposed to improve vision which needs dynamic
activity to engage the eyes with the environment. IOW, being in a
static position is not good for clear vision.
So, IMO the sun is good for vision since it encourages the body to
move around and engage with the environment. However, the sun may
not be as beneficial to lay outside to sun bathe. So there you have:
the ayurvedic principle is very sound and practical.
