Reversing Low Myopia: Your eye is a stimulus response system. The degree of myopia is largely irrelevant to your ability to reverse it – in other words, you can always reverse both pseudo- and lens-induced myopia.
The devil though, is in the details. It may seem more challenging to reverse that last (or only) diopter. The reason for that though is largely because it’s a) a bit trickier to get the right sort of stimulus and b) it’s harder to quantify a 20% improvement (for example) when you’re just dealing with low myopia to begin with. Read through this section for ideas, student feedback, and how-to guides for the low myope.

Vladimir: -2.00 Diopters To 20/20
Oh boy, I can imagine the comments already. "But Jake, that was barely two diopters. From there to 20/20 that's not even impressive, brrrrrrro." But here, anyway: There are a lot more of these, some starting with much higher diopters. If it's just regular improvement reports, people aren't happy because "bro that's not 20/20 there's no point". If it's massive gains, people aren't happy because "bro why am I not getting four hundred million percent gains in a month, that [...]
