| Step 1: | Refer to the image above labeled "#3 - 3 CUPS." You will also need a pen or pencil. |
| Step 2: | Sit relaxed and adjust your chair so that you are 12 to 24 inches from the computer monitor at eye level. If the image is not perfectly clear to you, that's all right, as long as you can make out the image. |
| Step 3: | Hold the pen vertically between the two circles approximately 1 inch from the screen. The top of the pen should be at the same level as the image. |
| Step 4: | Focus on the top of the pen as you slowly bring it toward your face. (Refer to Figure 3.2 below.) As you bring the pen closer to your face you will notice the two circles appear to become three circles. When it appears that the three circles are all the same shape and proportion, stop moving the pen. |
| Step 5: | Try to shift your focus from the pen to the centre circle. This may be difficult and could take a few days to master. If you have trouble doing this, refer to "Troubleshooting" below. |
| Step 6: | Once you can focus on the centre circle, move your pen away while maintaining your focus. Try to see the centre circle as clearly as possible. As you increase your focus you will notice that the centre circle becomes three-dimensional. It will look as if you were peering down into a Styrofoam cup. (Refer to Figure 3.3 below.) |
| Step 7: | Your final goal for Level 1 is to look at the two circles and create the three circles, the centre one appearing three-dimensional, without using your pen. Once you can easily achieve this, proceed to level 2 as described in the Rebuild Your Vision daily training routine. |
| Level 2: | Continue to levels 2 and 3 of the 3 Cups eye exercise as detailed in the Rebuild Your Vision Program |
And if you have any difficulties (which people rarely do)...There's troubleshooting tips like these to help you along the way...
Helpful Tip #1: If you have trouble creating
the third circle.
Move closer or farther from the monitor. Also, your eyes may have become tired
very quickly, so briefly look away or perform the Distant Night eye exercise to
refresh your eyes.
Helpful Tip #2: If you see four circles.
Focus closer to the tip of your nose. Bring the pen closer to your face and keep
your eyes focused on it. This should transform the four circles into three.
Another option is to move a few inches farther from the monitor.
Helpful Tip #3: If you cannot focus on the
centre circle.
If you can see the centre circle but have trouble focusing on it without the
pen, be assured that this is normal when you're first performing this eye
exercise. Focus on the top of the pen, then slowly look over it at the centre
circle. Keep going back and forth between the two until you are able to focus on
the centre circle without the pen.
