These simple exercises are designed to improve depth perception and peripheral vision, which can be beneficial for tasks like spotting traffic or landing in challenging conditions.  The exercise involves focusing on five progressively distant points; first with sharp, "eagle-eye" focus to discern details, and then with a soft, receptive gaze while introducing peripheral distractions (like waving hands) to stimulate the visual cortex. This practice, which can be performed sitting, standing, or even walking, aims to enhance the brain's ability to process visual information related to distance and motion, thereby reducing visual clutter and improving overall visual acuity.
