Re: Eye problems

As a repairer myself, and right in your age group too, I can recognise your symptoms well.
I suggest one thing that can help is to take frequent breaks when repairing to look up and away from the bench, preferably through a window at some very distant object.
This can help prevent the eye muscles from getting rigidly set in close-up mode and as noted in earlier post these muscles do lose flexibilty with age and so making focus adjustments takes progressively longer.

My workshop (attached to my house) equipment is spread between two locations and so I regularly have to get up and move between them. Not really efficient I grant but I think the enforced changes help eliminate the symptoms for me.
