Has anyone improved their eyesight with eye exercises? Readi

It won't work, can't work. Have you been reading Mr Bates' book?
It's not a muscular change, your muscular input is the same whether you are 7 or 70, it's what the muscles are acting on that changes as you get older.
Look at it like a balloon full of water, easy to change the shape. Then put that balloon full of water in the freezer to simulate aging. As it gets more frozen (you get older) the balloon contents get more solid until it is solid. It doesn't matter how hard you try you can't change the shape, but you can try.
Just get used to it and buy some decent glasses.
And get used to getting older, it beats the alternative.
Now if you could find a way to reliquidise your crystalline lens then you might be onto something...

Roughly akin to saying - I was starving hungry and did some mental exercises to convince myself I wasn't.
It didn't work. So I had a meal and it was all better.
Rubbish analogy aside - listen to DKL, for he is correct.
Incidentally @ DKL, my all-time favourite storyteller of this self-help stuff was the Russian "step-daughter" of a local retired business chap who was convinced she could hold her head at such an angle that the flow of blood to her eyes would be magically halted for a short while.
Then - she would face front and the resultant force of the rush of blood to her eyes cured her astigmatism.
(Keep it quiet!! Business is hard enough without everyone finding out they can cure astigmatism with a few careful head movements!)

Loads of weird and wonderful out there, you have to laugh.It didn't work. So I had a meal and it was all better.

I had a postgrad colleague investigating this stuff. They were, and probably still are, about -7 but wore no correction mostly. They would usually completely blank you in the corridors as they didn't know it was you. They were very friendly mostly so it wasn't that they didn't want to say hi.
They brought some colleagues in once for a dept show and tell and they got a right grilling even when the pyschophysicists started picking up on a few things that might actually be feasible with work.
Sadly they simply didn't have any answers that made any sense or, more importantly, that they could demonstrate any actual evidence for.. To be fair it was rather coming into the lions den but we had a wide range of specialties there and we were there to try and see if what they offered could be made into something more. Sadly not.
