Five research-backed eye exercises for people whose near vision is starting to slip: near-far focus, pursuit tracking, convergence, Gabor patch, and blur-to-clear. Each one names the paper it is based on, and the citations are readable inside the app. One minute each, capped at five minutes a day — then it closes until tomorrow. Everything runs on your device: no account, no sync. Free and ad-supported. Not a medical treatment or device.

Could you build this?
Yes It is a timed exercise app with five defined drills, a daily cap, and a citations page, all standard UI and timer work. The exercise protocols come from published papers, so the builder needs to read them, not invent them.
