I'm modulating my language simply because I don't have a firm grasp on expert consensus, I only have a handful of optometrist friends, and I usually like to defer to consensus.

I'm not sure why you'd think they wouldn't be honest with me: you should assume good faith.

I am assuming good faith. I wouldn’t ask you why they believe that if I didn’t. Incidentally you didn’t answer my question: “why is that?”

I thought I did answer it with my first paragraph, but if that still seems odd to you we can probably chalk it up to English as a second language or to a misunderstanding.
