Brittany (-4.00): Improved!
You know the drill. BackTo20/20. Great, structured, bite-sized, 20-minutes-at-a-time sessions. And the forum with thousands of searchable stories and per-student breakdown of questions and updates. And my personal support for all your specific questions. It's great stuff. But because I'm part hippie (or perhaps just worried about my lifetime karma points), I sneak plenty into the blog here, so anyone sufficiently motivated can absolutely just freeload the key concepts. Options abound here, there are no excuses to have to live [...]

Optometrist OBSESSED (In A Good Way)
Written By DespinaContributing OptometristWhen Jake asked me to experience this program, I was intrigued and excited. But I had no idea I would become ever-so-slightly obsessed with it. And I didn't realise this until yesterday, 2 months into the program, when I went to the beach.But it wasn't to swim, or to suntan, that I went.It was to get some uninterrupted distance vision, a bit of peripheral vision and some active focus. That's what I do at the beach these [...]
The 30 Day Trick, From Matthew (-4.00 TO -1.25)
Matthew started at out a -4.00, two years ago. He since managed to reverse most of his myopia (to -1.25), with persistence and good habits. If there's one thing I'll teach my child, it'll be to set yourself a goal, and then surround yourself with people who already accomplished what you're just setting out to do. There's no sense going at it alone, or listening to anyone other than those who are already where you're trying to go. Cut [...]
Peak At My E-Mail Inbox (-4.00, No Glasses, Etc)
Every day has a three hour window of Jake-time for @endmyopia. Some days its a bit more, others a bit less. I keep track of it, make sure it averages out to about three hours. The three hour rule helps to solve time sucking problems, instead of just accepting to have to work longer. Things like e-mail volume spam issues are solved by having an admin, and not doing case specific support (anymore) outside the forum. But I do [...]
Paul’s Progress: -3.25 Reduced To -2.25 (& eliminated astigmatism)
Today was supposed to be about optometry, hypocrisy, and pseudoscience. Very fun and interesting stuff. Understanding pseudoscience as a premise will help understand where retail optometry strayed from the path of actual science. You might say, Jake, it's obvious. Mainstream optometry is a bunch of lens sales shops, making money. And you would of course be correct. But we get optometrists coming here, shouting, "show us the science"! Are they actually interested in science, though? Are they basing their current treatment and [...]
