EYE BLACK

DOES EYE BLACK ABSORB LIGHT, IMPROVE CONTRAST & FOCUSING?

From an article in Mental Floss by Will McGough titled 

There have been a handful of studies done in the past decade, including one by the University of New Hampshire and one by Yale University… —they have agreed that traditional eye grease made of beeswax, paraffin, and carbon does, in fact, reduce glare and improve contrast sensitivity.

‘I thought we would find it to be like war paint and a psychological advantage more than anything else,’ Dr. Brian M. DeBroff, the lead author of the Yale study, told The New York Times. ‘We were surprised to find a benefit from the grease’...

‘Certainly in football and baseball (softball), where tracking a ball at high speed is an important aspect, any competitive advantage could be beneficial,’ DeBroff said.
