Started wearing glasses full-time a few months ago and I usually take them off during my lunch break because, well I’m mainly looking at my sandwich and I’ve been told it’s good to let your eyes ‘relax’ as such.

Is this BS, or does it actually have some value?

    I think it depends, farsighted? Probably not.

    Nearsighted looking at things hopelessly out of focus and not trying to look, perhaps.

    I’m very nearsighted amd taking my glasses seems to make them relax, since nothing will be close enough to make them focus.

    Somebody that’s farsighted might strain their eyes to focus without their glasses.
