Ciliary Myopia Symptoms
Lately I have been posting a lot of eyesight improvement accounts, leaving behind a bit more specific myopia related topics. Today, let's take a quick look at ciliary myopia symptoms. It is a fairly common (mis)conception that myopia is entirely based on an elongation of the eyeball. The full myopia explanation can be found here - in short though, myopia tends to begin as a focusing muscle spasm (from close-up strain) that later develops into that axial elongation. For the most part, axial [...]
Vision Improvement: Recognize Opportunity
Let's look at a recent question in the forum: At school I wear full prescription contacts for 7 hours. Up close and far away I use them. I know this is bad but I usually make up for it by pulling focus and reading all those cheesy signs teachers put up the classroom. So when I come back from school My vision would be what I imagine below 50cm because I was using them with contacts for up close and [...]
Ruth Ann: Motivation
As discussed in 'how myopia happens', most myopia symptoms are actually a sign of a healthy eye - which is merely adjusting to strain. While ciliary myopia is the better case scenario for a myopia cure (a focusing muscle spam, often easily reversed), even axial myopia is nothing more than your eye adjusting to counter focusing muscle strain. If you remove the cause of the symptom, and add targeted positive stimulus, your healthy eyes will respond accordingly. Reducing myopia is [...]
One-on-One Program Pricing Change
The One-on-One option of the Web program is an excellent tool for clients who were not geographically close enough to visit the clinic, but still wanted to work on improving their eyesight. When the Vision Improvement Course began showing results, I decided to update the distance care program to reflect the new direction. With my retirement, and the new online resources including the forum, blog, and paid program, a prospective client now has a lot more options on how to improve [...]
Khyati: Myopic Child – A Parents Story
When I started the Web version of our myopia rehabilitation program, I decided not to use any of our client success stories from the local office practice.Since the Web requires more engagement on your part, is more challenging as you are working with a screen instead of a practitioner, it seemed disingenuous to use office client successes to substantiate the Web program. Fortunately though, as more people are finding this online course, positive feedback is beginning to accumulate.My favorite may [...]
Myopia Cure: The Sum Of Its Parts
Sometimes I see questions and comments about the #endmyopia Method when discussing myopia cures, on other sites and forums. As the idea of plus lens therapy in particular has a niche following, my method tends to get put in the same category. Likewise, sometimes clients like to 'pick and choose' parts of the #endmyopia Method, and seek eyesight improvements using a partial strategy. Certainly, in some cases we do use plus lenses to help improve your eyesight. The #endmyopia Method [...]
