Behind The Scenes. Highly professional outfit that @endmyopia is, behind the scenes is all entirely sanctionable, appropriate, and educationally valuable content.

Annette: -5.25 D Reduced To -1.75 Diopters
Dahhhhlings. It's been a very video-centric past couple of weeks. Not only for the freeloader YouTubes, but also the most excellent BackTo20/20 paid member side of things has seen quite a few updates. In the slow turning cycle that is dealing with all the things that make up endmyopia, a bit of this was quite well due. And what always seems to get neglected, is the gains updates. Obviously the best and most important part of endmyopia, being able to [...]
Bates Method Didn’t Work .. Now What?
Another quick video today, from your most favorite darling eye guru. Do you ever wonder why we even bother posting videos about nonsense like Bates Method, attracting all teh trollz and mouth breathers of the Interwebs? Well. The videos are bait. Here's why bait videos seem necessary: I get a ton of e-mail from people who tried eye exercises and Bates Method, in the hopes of improving their eyesight. Of course it never works out, so some give up, some [...]
Endmyopia-Friendly Optometrists
Shjeeeees. They are out there, kittehs. Optometrists who know the secret handshake. The winkey-wink. The cough-cough-lower-diopters requests. As of this writing, nobody who sells lenses for a living is going to tell you that you shouldn't start wearing glasses. Or that you shouldn't wear full minus for close-up. We're not living in some kind of post-for-profit endmyopia wisdoms future. But we are living in the present. This site gets millions of regular visits. Even our tiny Youtube channel has over [...]
Darshani: Daughter from -4.25 Reduced To -1.75 D
Kittehz. Uncle Jake's desktop is completely full of student gains reports screenshots. If I stick them in a folder again, same thing will happen as always ... I'll never remember to try to post them all. Yes all these 20/20 gains are a problem entirely unique to our holy temples of Meow. Since we dare to consider vision biology and stimulus, we're getting these unusual results of reducing myopia. Who'd have thought. On to the point: Well then. Here we [...]
THEY SAY I NEED GLASSES?! (what to do next)
So you just went to the optometrist for the first time. And what?! They told you that you need glasses. And you hopped online. And fired up the old Googles. And searched for wtf that all is about. And stumbled upon this holy grail of all teh sagely wisdoms. Good on you. Now as punishment, you'll have to watch in video format what all that talk of you about to be some four eyed nerdface, is really about: [...]
Do I Need A Test Lens Kit? (for vision improvement)
Here's a quick video lesson on whether you need a test lens kit. Note that this is based on many years of experience, which isn't easy to whittle down into a couple minutes of video. (Especially when you deal with the sort of majestical guru who doesn't script or plan his videos.) And as usual, don't go monkeying around with stuff unless you know what you're doing. I get comments on videos from people who can't grasp basic math or [...]
