Measure Your Myopia & Improvements (Android & Windows)
Quick heads up for you here, if you're looking for logging and measuring tools: There's a fair bit of community based development going on, building tools to help realize your lofty back to 20/20 vision aspirations. This is all community work, meaning that you're not having to pay for these things - and consequently also, there's no guarantees or definitive support or anything besides use-at-your-own-peril. Peril, kittehz. Depending on how these things evolve we may eventually go for official support and development on some [...]
Bill Otto: Endmyopia Is A Disinformation Site
Oh-oh. Your favorite darling eye guru is having a high blood pressure moment. This is about to turn into a full on yikes-rant-fest, darlings. So please do join me here today on the darling endmyopia bloglet, fellow darling non-believer in 'genetic myopia'. Pull up a comfy chair and let's together explore how a certain conspiracy theorist by the seemingly non-consequential name of Bill Otto has managed to somewhat annoy Otherwise Dignified VonJakensteen. And for today we won't even go on about the mainstream and selling [...]
Louise: Optometrists, GTFO 😡
Let's kick off this latest round of improvement reports with some fun drama from the Facebook group. For a bit of background, for whatever reason the last couple of days has been stirring from sleeper cell optometrists in the group. Suddenly a flurry of activity there, recommending everything from atropine drops for myopia control (literally, poison) to ortho-k (literally, thousands of dollars for not addressing causality at all). And while your favorite darling eye guru attempts to be patient with the forum moderating and [...]
Active Focus: “Describe The Blur”
Quick one today, a bit of participant perspective on how to find active focus. As you probably know, active focus can be an elusive beast. It's difficult to explain, since the part of how to get there is an intangible, personal kind of experience. To help with this, I compiled the active focus link list and in it, various individual explanations on what it means and how people found it for themselves. It's usually some way of explaining it, that works for one [...]
Reducing Diopters, This Whole Thing, Is FOR WEIRDOS
Darling fellow endmyopia kittehz. Welcome back to another post, and another round of all the 20/20 gains. Of which as you probably know by now, there are many. But let's start this one out with something that bugs your favorite holy sage eyeguru, and I don't know what to do about it. Every so often I get an e-mail like this one: *sigh* Now, that's a well-intentioned message. The problem with it is, that you may well figure that for every one person who [...]
Video: Should I Reduce My Diopters?
Arch bishop Papa Giorgio VonderCrankypants just uploaded a new video for you, discussing a very commonly posed endmyopia question. Which is, hey Jake. Should I reduce my diopters? This question is one of those curiously self-answering ones, once you stop and think about what diopters are about, and why you'd possibly want to reduce them. Or in other words, this is rarely the actual question to ponder. More on this in the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqRVo2te_BU Jovial, that's the word you're looking for. And as always, please [...]
