This is pretty amazing. Barb reports a 40% reduction in myopia in a month and a half. Sometimes you read these progress reports, and you just have to think. How's that even possible? What's the scheme here? Is Jake preparing some kind of eagle eyed cult scenario over there, wherever he is in Asia? Let's figure that out. First, a quick look at Barb's support forum post: Look at that centimeter graph. Data! <3 Centimeter graph to show us what's going on. Starting [...]
Do Not Do These Things To Your Eyes
Resist the temptation to try some random 'natural' cure for eye issues. Please. The odds that you'll experience anything in the range from just wasting your time to seriously messing up your eyes, are very high. Much higher than you actually finding some "cure", some "easy natural remedy". In fact whenever you see any of what I show you in this article, just click away, and forget all about it. Besides what modern optometry propagates of course, most everything else [...]

Where Should You Start With Diopter Reductions?
It's time to put this question in the FAQ. Diopter reductions, where to start. First, obvious disclaimers. Don't monkey with lenses if you don't know what you're doing. Don't go dig up some "old prescription" and start wearing it. Learn about the biology first, learn centimeter measurements, do a ton of reading, before messing with focal plane changes. That stuff is no joke and you'll do way more harm than good by going into this experiment without a clear background [...]
