Recognizing Clear Focus Triggers
Exercising the eye is much like exercising any other part of your body - a single activity creates a stimulus with far reaching consequences. If you run on a treadmill or lift some weights, you are just doing one thing: Moving muscles. This is exactly what you are actively doing, when working on your eyesight (affecting the ciliary muscle actively, vs. passively letting glasses do the work for you). When you do lift weights or run on the treadmill though, [...]
Focal Plane Hangover, Chicken Livers, more
I am out for a conference, which has left little time to answer your e-mails, look over the forum, and take care of site updates. My apologies! I will be back to regular schedule in a few days. Meanwhile though, I updated Installment #65 for those of you who successfully managed not only to work out close-up blur, but also distance blur. There is a thread in the forum related to the subject, where some participants are discussing the results. [...]
What You Missed: The Focal Plane Leap
Focal plane leap session: What we are going to find from this session, is that you can overcome a 1.25 diopter correction need, by using my blur focus method. This means, that if you currently need a -1.25 differential correction to see at 50cm distance, you can accomplish the same vision, at the same distance, without any correction (though it will take some work to make this persistent, and will take some notable effort and focus initially). In a [...]
Reducing Potential Harmful Prescription Complexity
Have you seen your eyeglass prescription recently? If you haven't, it might be worth a look! Chances are, it is anything but straightforward, and looks like something in the above image. There will be a difference between your left and right eye spherical values. Then, there will most likely be an astigmatism correction. This one adds a whole lot of complexity to the lens that you see the world through. You have different values for each eye, and then also [...]
Key Prescription Risks That Everyone Should Understand
Two recent forum topics bring to light the need to discuss eyeglass prescription strength, both for program participants, and casual readers alike. I also have a pair of +1.25 glasses, which was the lowest power I could get at the drugstore. I hope to “grow into” these but in the meantime am wearing them about 1 hour a day at the computer. This has my face about 6 or 7 inches from the screen — not that comfortable, but it’s [...]
Unduly Neglected: The Importance of Using Distance Vision
There was a recent thread in the forum, discussing the lack of improvement on part of a few program participants. While of course I prefer to highlight the positives of the program, and build trust and a positive attitude (which helps you improve your eyesight as well), we can't ignore the lessons from some of the setbacks. Here is the thread in question, if you would like to read the first hand account: http://www.frauenfeldclinic.com/myopia-forums/topic/active-focus-focus-pushing-and-pulling/ If you spend enough time in [...]
