How I Went From -5D To -3D (& Why You Shouldn’t)
Recent YouTube Jakey post, about my own journey from -5D to -3D glasses.And yes, I do get confused on locations. Pretty sure that was the first Laos round, though there was either there or Cambodia that -3 started working well. If only Jake had kept better logs ... (like you ought to).Either way, some possible lessons there for those who like to monkey with lenses, skip the learning process. You always come back to RTFM eventually, after a few rounds of "meh, [...]
Addicted to Lenses
Written By DespinaContributing OptometristJake's recent blog entitled, "Shh, don't tell them how to fix their eyes," got me thinking. You can take a horse to water but you really can't make him drink. There really is no point preaching about anything, reversing myopia included.

They know the health risks, potentially life-threatening ones at that, but may do nothing about it, either because they don't believe it will actually [...]

Matt Improves From -4.25 To -2.50 (and more stories)
Let's look at some reader and student e-mails, today. First up, Matt improves from -4.25 to -2.50. That's a healthy start right into low myopia territory. Well done. Avoided the LASIK. Lucky Matt! Some days it's easy to take all the improvement stories for granted. Especially if you've been following @endmyopia for a while, or if you're me, clicking through hundreds of e-mails a day (yes, I skim and hit delete liberally, and the e-mail admin does the rest).

(-1.00 To 20/40) Innocent Bystander Improves Her Eyesight
Today, back to the good news parts of the blog! :) (and more on the headline image in a moment) Matthew posts in the forum: Hey endmyopiaers! I’ve posted before that my wife has very mild myopia and wears a -1 / -1 prescription. She doesn’t wear glasses in the house and only wears them when she goes outside. While she is very excited about my progress, she is only marginally interested in working on her own vision. She’s in [...]
