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.
20/20 Gains: Mark Reduces From -2.50 To -1.50
Today let's look at an e-mail from Mark, who is getting well and nicely comfortable outside of the mainstream single prescription paradigm. Great to see people learning about their eyes, about optic, about myopia! Look at a sane and appropriate use of lenses here, as described by Mark: Jake, I'm writing to you to give you an overview of my progress (as it's exactly a year since I subscribed) and ask a couple of questions. I've realised, through your teachings [...]
Hugh (-2.50) Reduces Myopia 40%, Nobody Believes Him
I'm about to get huge trapezius muscles, from all the shrugging I do while reading e-mails (and now also various Youtube and Quora comments - thanks ya'll, talking me into doing Youtube). Here, what I'm talking about: You know how much that sucks, for Hugh? Imagine you find a possible fix for your pesky myopia. You go out on a limb, against all of what the mainstream says, and you try it. You go through the trouble of reading this blog and [...]
Kristina Did It! (18 Year Old High School Student Reverses Myopia)
You want to know what tangible success looks like? How about six months to reduce a full diopter in lens prescriptions? Big deal, you think. You show us these stories all the time, Jake. But this one is Kristina, who is an 18 year old high school student. And before anyone gets their huff-pants on about how age doesn't matter, let me just interrupt that right now. We've actually got a strict minimum age of 25 for BackTo20/20, exactly [...]
(-3.25) Zero Dollars Spent, Many 20/20 Gains Made
Serious vision improvement stories. You don't want to miss out on these! In this post we'll focus only on ones that are "blog readers only", ie. students who use entirely just the free materials, and none of the BackTo20/20 participants who pay for a structured approach (which is still the single best thing out there in terms of natural myopia reversal). So let's look at a few diopters of entirely free 20/20 gains, as told by readers themselves. First up, Andrew. Andrew, who [...]
Omar: Reduced From -1.00 To -0.25 (In Six Months!)
You know what is amazing? We could literally do only eyesight improvement stories, and cover every single day of the blog. We're actually pretty close to where we could do only eyesight improvement stories from just blog readers (not even students), and cover every single day. That's huge. Oh boy, I can't resist right now ... Right?! Anyway. This one is interesting because it's low myopia, which really takes getting everything right, not being torn by doubts of what's possible, and taking [...]
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 [...]
