Focus Gym is an eye training app for people who are starting to notice changes in their near vision. Built around one idea — a gym for your eyes, five minutes a day — it helps you turn five science-backed exercises into a daily habit. FIVE TRAININGS Near-Far Focus Shift your gaze between near and far targets to work the flexibility of the ciliary muscle. Reference: Ciuffreda et al., Optometry and Vision Science, 2011 Pursuit Tracking Follow a moving target smoothly to exercise the coordination of the extraocular muscles. Reference: Scheiman et al., Optometry and Vision Science, 2005 Convergence Training Work the convergence muscles to support how your eyes team together. Step-by-step guidance and haptic cues keep you on tempo. Reference: CITT Study Group, Archives of Ophthalmology, 2008 Gabor Patch (the strongest evidence base) Perceptual learning with striped Gabor patches. It stimulates the brain's primary visual cortex directly and supports contrast sensitivity. Reference: Polat et al., Scientific Reports, 2012 Blur-to-Clear Training Just watch as blurred text gradually sharpens. A passive way to exercise the focusing action of the ciliary muscle. Reference: Scheiman et al. (2005) / PMC3361569 (2012) / PubMed 28097018 (2017) FEATURES THAT BUILD THE HABIT Streak counter so you can see your consistency at a glance Monthly calendar to look back on your progress Daily reminder notification at a time you choose A five-minute daily cap, managed for you PRICING Every feature is free to use. The app shows ads. If you would rather not see them, a one-time in-app purchase (Remove Ads) hides them. All trainings stay free either way. IMPORTANT This app is not a medical treatment or device. It does not promise improved eyesight or a cure for presbyopia. If you notice anything unusual with your eyes, please consult an eye care professional.

Verdict
GeneBee and Focus Gym are too close to call on the numbers: across 6 compared parameters — price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
