Improve Eyesight: 20/40 to 20/15 in 3 Months
On the subject of how to improve eyesight, I recently received this e-mail from Kevin, a reader of the site: The whole question of improving eyesight, what has evidence and what does not, now has one page: how to improve your eyesight. Hi Alex, I know you are busy so i try to keep this short. My father had a -1/-0.75 his v/a was 20/40 3 months ago. his vision now is 20/20-20/15.

New Rules: Forum Membership
So far there has been no firm rule on who can get onto the forum to contribute, ask questions, and to get support. The problem with non-participant forum members is that many questions that come up from them, are answered in much detail in the paid program (as well as the blog and forum). Of course, I did not want to require money, for support. So that bit of a conundrum has just been left open. But now, I have a solution to suit all! [...]
The Swirling Myths Around Alex
I don't know what it is exactly, and perhaps it's just that time of the year.

Fears, that the paid program must a trap, dragging the unsuspecting participant deep into the lair of never ending installments Queries about me, an international (and possibly Chinese) man of mystery [...]

The Goal Case And the Trophy Case
Lately I have been having a case of Internet, Website, and e-mail fatigue. It just never ends! In a practice in the physical world, an office, we take generous amounts of time off. You wouldn't see me for the better part of July and August. I would be gone all of December, and part of January. And in between, there would be a week here, a week there of someone filling in for me. Not so, with the Web. The Web is every day! Sundays, [...]
Why Does Nobody Talk About Myopia Rehab?
I get this question a lot, and consistently. It is probably the biggest reason that people are highly skeptical about the premise of rehabilitation. Let me illustrate they 'why', with some images: This is the 5 year stock trend for Essilor. Wikipedia describes the company this way: Essilor International S.A. is a French company that produces ophthalmic lenses along with ophthalmic optical equipment. It is based in Paris, France, and quoted on the Euronext Paris Stock Exchange. As one of the 40 largest companies traded in Paris, it is a component of the CAC 40 share index. Essilor is [...]
