Unraveling Myopia: Begin To Understand Your Eyes
The support forum is a gold mine of insights from participants.For anyone working on their own eyesight, as well as casual readers considering improving their vision, I highly recommend some browsing there.

Let's look at some recent dialog:Ziju writes:My snellen results with the -2.75 are OD/OS/Both eyes:Morning(natural light): 20/30, 20/50, 20/25Night(room light): 20/70, 20/200, 20/70My centimeter measurement with -2.75 is OD/OS: 55cm/47cm at [...]
Why You Are Likely Wasting 97% Of Your Vision

Well over 90% of the natural vision experience is lost, when we combine 8+ hours a day of close-up, TV, and eyeglass frames.

David’s Progress: -4.00 to -2.50
If there is one thing I am glad I did, it was to have started a support forum.More of the insights come from there, than most things I write here on the blog. If the Web Program is the brush and canvass, the support forum shows the paintings you create. David writes:Hey all,I started the program back in October and had been not using glasses for a bit before that, but wasn’t doing active focus or blur horizon work, till [...]
Contact Lenses For Computer Use: Tricks, Tips, Caveats
A recent post in the support forum reminded me of a trick I sometimes prescribe for heavy computer users (who happen to be in the one-on-one program). Since it makes sense to share this with everyone, let me give you a bit of the circumstances where this may make sense for you.
