Opening the sight

Peripheral vision
"it has generally been assumed that signals from the fovea determine the effects of vision on refractive development. However, experiments in laboratory animals demonstrate that ocular growth and emmetropization are mediated by local retinal mechanisms and that foveal vision is not essential for many vision-dependent aspects of refractive development. However, the peripheral retina, in isolation, can effectively regulate emmetropization and mediate many of the effects of vision on the eye's refractive status. Moreover, when there are conflicting visual signals between the fovea and the periphery, peripheral vision can dominate refractive development."

I was observing how I see with my eyes. I noticed that also my vision seem not know how "to open" to welcome the whole visual field. It's about awareness, it doesn't matter if the eyes are closed.
As the sight opened more, neck and shoulders followed. The dorsal-ventral wave.
And my mild myopia in the right eye is almost gone.
