I want to cover my eye for entire week with something that will keep it dark as crack. After a week. I want to check whether there is difference between eyes (don't tell what, don't spoil it!). When I keep my right eye under darkness for a week. Could something bad happen? I mean, I realize my eye will blow up because of hue, saturation and lightness. But I won't become blind or something? I've heard that if you're not using parts of your body, they're disabled by brain.

No. Your eye will be in the most relaxed state it has ever been Wink Face

Therefore, your iris will thank you for that.

You will not become blind at all. Update us after a week, this sounds interesting and weird at the same time.

Apparently my eye is sweating like hell. + I'm hygienic psychopath. So... we shorten the "7 days to die" (c). I will do it through today (05-08-2014), tomorrow (06-08-2014) and at noon next day (07-08-2014) I will take it off.

I was wondering how you'd take a shower with an eye-patch also.

I took it today off, it was miserable. Like I can't stand the fact that I can't see in 3D. The brightness and saturation was a little bit better than in the one eye that is supposed to work. But beyond that, nothing special. No improvements in vision whatsoever.

Logically it makes sense, doesn't it?

Poor eyesight comes from the inability of the cornea and lens to focus light onto the retina.

Yea. I know that.

A little bit. Relaxed eye would means relaxed eye muscles and some doctor did research about it and has proven that stress of muscles in the eye has bigger effect on eyesight than lens itself.

Intuitively it makes sense. Why not repeat the experiment with a longer duration?
