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 [...]
Reversing Years Of Blur Adaptation: The Le Meow Forum
I really do fail to ever mention what is definitely one of our best community resources. So let me say it here: We have a pretty fantastic forum. All kinds of in depth discussion about vision related topics. Once you log in there, it's easy to get entirely consumed by reading threads and updates and being generally amazed at how much is being done with the resources from endmyopia. But do you hear about the forum at all here, [...]
Joonas: From -2.00 D To 20/15 Without Glasses
No rants today, darlings. No rants, and no rambles. Just a quick update that I couldn't possibly pass on posting right now for you. Low myopia back to 20/20 is a tricky one. Though if you follow the correct approach, you will absolutely get there. In fact, many participants experience a very similar progression. Here's Joonas progress, in his own words: This is how it's done. A big thanks to Joonas for paying it forward, sharing his improvement report [...]
From 20/50 To 20/20, Angry Optometrist, & More
Dearest darling kittehz. It's time for the weekly progress reports update, which is turning more into a sometimes-eventually progress reports udate. I need to hire somebody to post these. There's really no way otherwise that they're getting done on a regular enough basis. We get so, SO many progress reports (I love them all, please do keep them coming) and I'm inundated by an endless list of pesky other tasks to do for endmyopia. Hey Jake, why haven't you uploaded [...]
Low Myopia Diopters: Do You Need Close-Up Glasses?
It's been a while since we've gotten into Q&A and diopter how-to posts. I'm working on doing more in video format since it seems that's the way we're headed with online communicating in general. Also I like to torture you with my homeless-man face. So the question here is this: You have low myopia, in the -1.50 diopter or lower-ish range. You may have some amount of spherical diopter ratio and maybe some astigmatism, too. Given this scenario, do you [...]
Janna: Double Vision Resolved, -2.25 D To 20/25 (No Glasses)
The 'weekly' progress report compendium is still waiting on my desktop, growing daily in contributions. Really not a moment of extra time these days, working on off-grid essentials before the monsoon season kicks in full force. There's basically going to be no building things outside for the next five or six months. So whatever we may want to get done, it's crunch time right now. Anyway. Even with all that, had to come in to share this 20/20 progress update [...]
