Blurring your vision on purpose - good, bad, or neither?
I have always been able to focus my vision closer without crossing my eyes, resulting in blurred vision for any object more than a foot or so away, although I can control just how blurry things get. This is a great trick for me because I don't like the scary parts of movies and I don't want to look goofy covering my eyes, but I want to know if this is safe to do on a regular basis. If it is using a muscle, (I guess the ciliary muscles) wouldn't it be a good thing to exercise that muscle?

It's not good to use the muscle if it's going to make your vision blurry. It will get conditioned to stay blurry after awhile.
You won't look goofy not looking at sary parts of movies. :-)

I think I know what you mean. I think what is happening is that you are managing to focus at different differences, even though you cannot see what you are focusing on. The only thing that could be bad about this is your eyes may get sore if you are constantly changing focus all the time, no real harm.
