Video. More and more endmyopia content is available with video. We have an entire YouTube channel filled with various levels of cringe while Jake attempts to explain core concepts, goes on epic rants, and digresses via extensive rambles.
If video is your thing, our YouTube channel is definitely your thing.
Not that pro topic how-to guide videos are no longer available publicly on the channel. This is since Jake likes dialog and community and two way streets of contribution, so for the advanced topics you’ll have to be a member of the free endmyopia Le Meow forum. There the how-to forum contains dozens more videos discussing advanced actionable strategies to get all your 20/20 gains.

Focal Plane (aka Diopter) Tuning
Most optometrist intervention in your eyesight is like applying a sledge hammer. There's not exactly a whole lot of finesse in the common, mainstream approach.

Your Glasses: Does Your Ciliary Muscle Love Them?
In video format today, a quick explainer why your eye's focusing muscle might love (and be better off) with glasses.This is in response to a few recent forum stories where students (before finding @endmyopia) went no-glasses, cold turkey.

I'll explain in the video.Only in video format today since this one [...]
