From Glasses To No-Glasses 20/20 Vision
Every so often I'm asked whether students actually make it out of glasses and back to real, uncorrected 20/20. Of course they do. Figure that only a relatively small percentage post progress updates (I can't really complain, I'd probably be a non-poster myself), and that average myopia is at least 4-6 diopters for most people. That's several years of progress and I haven't been running the site quite long enough for most of them to be back to 20/20 just [...]
Nakanita: From -3 Diopters To 20/30 Without Glasses!
We don't really Facebook. Mostly that's your darling host's fault, who just doesn't have the attention span for juggling the social media. All for the better anyway, considering the type of heresy that we appear to be inciting all over the world. I'm embarrassed, frankly. Take a look at Nakanita's insouciantly flaunted disregard for professional advice: Go ahead, shake your head. There we go, people not listening to their retina specialist about further increasing a -3 diopter prescription - and then [...]
Debbie’s Progress: 25% Improvement In 4 Months
Progress update time! Debbie posts in the forum:Eye drops for cataracts, we're curious how they work for Debbie (keep an eye on Debbie's forum posts for future updates on that front). Besides that, just the usual here. Reduce close-up strain, create positive stimulus, and the biology does what it's designed to do. The hustlers selling you lenses and telling you that you're broken, refuse to acknowledge that you're actually fine and don't need their "treatment".Yes, I kind of phoned in this [...]
Eric”s (from -4.25) Optometrist: “Amazing! What Did You Do?”
Opening e-mail is a bit like Christmas, these days. Lots and lots and lots of great stories. Check out what Eric just sent over, brilliant experience (and he's lucky too, to have found an optometrist with some sense and curiosity, and not an outsized ego). There's hope for myopes, yet! Big thumbs up to Eric for making those gains, and especially taking the time to write! If you haven't started yet, take inspiration from Eric. He read the blog, he [...]
12 Year Old Boy Beats Myopia
Lots of things occupy your darling eye guru's wee little brain, with this @endmyopia project. How do I get the new reader to stick around long enough to seriously consider natural myopia control? How do we create credibility and trust? Do we need to do social media things, make videos, leverage tools to get younger myopes thinking about their eyesight? And if we do, how do we do it? And sometimes of course, I think ... man, why keep putting all [...]
Down to -1.50 D: Progress, Patching, Observations
* progress chart forum signature: Janna The forum is really very helpful for perspectives and insights and individual experiences with reducing myopia. I highly recommend reading it regularly (if you're in BackTo20/20), there's much you can learn from the collective experiences there. Here's Matthew's update from yesterday, working on low diopter equalization: I’m almost 30 days into a new normalized of L -1.25 / R -1.50. I have been working on patching for several months now, too. Here’s my observations: [...]
