I did not have a chance to test this theory as I had alot of vision issues. But if it is not giving you headache and fatigue I think reading in short intervals would be OK. I listened to a ton of audiobooks and still do today, if you get a good narrator it gives a whole new dimension to the story.

Thank you for the reply, I appreciate the insight.
The problem is I'm 4 months into my recovery and still suffering from daily headaches.
Wouldn't audiobooks in the same regard then require effort on a healing brain?
I'm rather bored, and not sure what to do with my time.
No screens, reading, but complete bed rest should be avoided as well. I'm trying to figure out what the best approach is here and what to do with my days.
