“I started Lumosity brain training as I was getting very forgetful. This worried me, as I dread losing any of my mental faculties as I get older. I am now half way through the second basic course and loving it ! Some of the exercises really stretch me, but apart from the odd bad day, I am getting better and better and acing my scores.
But one of the most wonderful results has actually been very unexpected. I have an eye disease called Retinitis Pigmentosa, one of the effects of this being that my peripheral vision deteriorates. I am also long sighted and need glasses for driving and TV. I have just had my yearly eye tests, and to my utter amazement, I got a score of 100% on my peripheral vision test, which is nearly unheard of, and far higher than my last tests, and my overall vision had improved to the extent that I no longer need glasses for driving ! My optitian was amazed, and I was delighted ! All thanks to my training with games such as Birdwatching. I knew I was getting much better at that, but didn’t realize what the full extent of the improvement would result in.
So 2 birds with one stone — improved brain function and improved eyesight ! I’m already a winner!” - Sandra Bond
