Behind The Scenes. Highly professional outfit that @endmyopia is, behind the scenes is all entirely sanctionable, appropriate, and educationally valuable content.
Or not any of that. We take no responsibility for what you may find in this section. (nor anywhere else, really … Jake is any PR professional’s amused nightmare)
PRO TOPIC: Normalized Glasses Or Differentials Glasses Indoors?
Here's a common question, about the use of corrective lenses while indoors. You have your normalized glasses for distance vision, often emphasized for outdoor use. And you have your differential glasses, for sustained single point focus close-up use. This invites the question what you might do with all the in between distances? Short answer: Whenever you're not on the computer (or your otherwise primary close-up distance), use normalized glasses. No need to adjust for every single distance, two focal planes [...]
Kristen A (-4.25): Optometrist Confirms 1.5 Diopter Reduction
Here's a great improvement report for you, from our darling Facebook group. You might like this one since it's a) optometrist confirmed, b) has diopter equalization (left and right eye same diopters), c) includes more than a full diopter of reduction, and d) even has reduced astigmatism. All this in a span of a very short 7 months. Not bad at all for seven months start, and an "incurable genetic condition". Here's the full post: Win on every front. Myopia [...]
Outdoor 20/20 Gains!
"But Jake, can't I just wear plus lenses and spend every waking moment in front of my computer?" You know, endmyopia is actually all a big ploy. Yes, just like the haters say. A trick! You learn all these things about optics and vision biology and how to control strain and how to get positive stimulus. And then, when you're too deep into it to want to turn back, then you realize the dirty secret: Ultimately to really get back [...]
How Much Active Focus Per Day?
This one comes up a lot in the Facebook group: "How much active focus do I need per day?" Makes a Jake a little crazy sometimes, this question. Because of course active focus isn't an exercise. So 'how many times' is definitely not going the right way about it, and might even suggest that the person asking hasn't really taken the time to understand this very underlying core premise of our method. But you know what? My fault for not [...]
Off-Topic: The Guru’s Old Walking Stick
Off-topic randomness, of the potential consequences of starting to see the world more clearly. Myopia control. It creeps into your life, becoming less short sighted. First you just learn things about vision biology and optics and the difference between lazy (but profitable) symptom treatment, and actual health. About so-called medicine, vs. science. Then you start making 20/20 gains. Making small habit changes. And really what it boils down to after you get through the basic learning curve, is fixing your screen [...]
The Five Thousand Kitteh Army
This, just a ramble about progress and things. Our most awesome Facebook group just hit the 5,000 member mark. And you're thinking, woopdie doo Jake. You're right of course. Just numbers (try to say it with a Scottish accent though ... fiiive thuuusand - way more impressive). And sure, many of those members never post, comment, read, or otherwise partake in the idle subterfuge that is endmyopia. It's also a tiny number compared to what we might have if [...]
