Put Away Your Wallet. Improving your eyesight doesn’t have to cost a thing. All you need is a modicum of intelligence, a bit of persistence, some curiosity, a little open-mindedness, and get ready to spend some time investigating, learning, and trying things out *(site content guide).
On this page, some of the most recent first-hand improvement accounts from student readers, who used just the blog (not the famed and elusive BackTo20/20 program). Read, learn, find your own inspiration.
Optometrist (-5.50 Progress): “Eyes Gone Back To An Older Prescription”
There's one key premise that made me moderately successful in my previous career: Never take anyone's word for things that will be critically important to your decision making. An example: I wasn't an accountant (I'd be the worst accountant, seriously). We'd get these in-house accountant summaries of financials, a neat few pages covering dozens of boxes of paperwork. Everybody was using the summaries. Everybody but Jake. I'd kept an eye on the in-house accountants, and I didn't trust them. I had my own guy (kid in school [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Kris Reduces Glasses From -6.00 To -4.50 (In 4 Months)
Youtube comment today, from Kris, a viewer and reader of the blog: I love getting these bits of feedback to share with you! Of course a reasonable diet matters (insulin issues often tie to eyesight problems) and from there it's not that much further to get some better eyesight habits as well. Nicely done, Kris. Housekeeping: Still in Indonesia for a few more days here, I brought various cameras and things but haven't done any proper videos. The studio is [...]
(-1.00 To 20/40) Innocent Bystander Improves Her Eyesight
Today, back to the good news parts of the blog! :) (and more on the headline image in a moment) Matthew posts in the forum: Hey endmyopiaers! I’ve posted before that my wife has very mild myopia and wears a -1 / -1 prescription. She doesn’t wear glasses in the house and only wears them when she goes outside. While she is very excited about my progress, she is only marginally interested in working on her own vision. She’s in [...]
