Why

It is essential for our eyes to have the ability to rapidly switch focus from objects in the distance to objects nearby. This critical skill is known as Accommodation Flexibility and is used often by children and adults alike. For instance, when copying material from a class room board to a book on the table, or when driving when focussing on the road and then looking at the speedometer.

How

  • Put the chart on the wall at eye level.
  • You sit 3 meters away from the wall with your tablet.
  • Match the number on the screen, with the shape on the chart on the wall.

Goal

Match each number on the screen with the corresponding shape on the wall, as quickly as possible.
