Sister Lofton,

Thank you for this one because this is something that I have not paid any attention to: Furthermore, since the advent of personal computers 30 years ago, a condition known as computer vision syndrome has surfaced. One of the most significant problems contributing to CVS is the reduction in a patient’s blink rate.12,13 Studies show that individuals blink approximately 60 percent less when using a computer.14 This decrease in blink rate may be a result of serious concentration on the task at hand, or a relatively limited range of eye movement. Consequently, the patient’s tear film is replenished less frequently and evaporates more quickly, causing him ocular discomfort.

The reduction of a person’s blink rate makes them susceptible to hypnosis. Hypnosis is an altered state of awareness, which produces altered state of consciousness. When the hypnotist speaks to the client, he says “you are getting sleepy”, and their eyes begin to blink slower. Those who hypnotize others are like computer professionals or hackers that can sneak inside your mind and make small, but important alterations, somewhat like implanting a computer virus there. Alteration or distortion of the brain (use of drugs) causes people to be more suggestible and respond in certain ways. Notice how church members are always yawning during service? Blinking helps protect your eyes from the manipulation of the hypnosis. The non-hypnotized person’s eyes seem to be more alive and alert.
