Starting Point: -4 To -5 Diopters
Congratulations, sort of. You have less diopters than many, though it’ll take you a little while to make it back to 20/20.
Which one could say, is kind of good news. So far all the so-called professionals and doctors have been telling you that nothing at all can be done about your shortsightedness. They say suck it up, you’re a failure in the vision department. Give us your credit card, consider yourself lucky we’re here, and buy these glasses.
And then you end up on this page anyway, skeptical ideally, open-minded, hopefully.
Then you start finding out that retail optometry knows that minus lenses cause myopia and that myopia in most cases isn’t an illness at all. Myopia is usually nothing more than a refractive state, meaning that your eyes simply adapted to both strain (from close-up) and stimulus (of the wrong kind, from minus lenses).
Oops. And you may look and find more and more articles on the subject, realizing that you’re neither hopeless, nor broken.
That part isn’t really in question, at least not once you explore a bit of the clinical science and studies that can easily be found on Google Scholar. The real question is, is Cooky VonJakenstein off his regal rocker, or is this particular dirty stock trader and capitalist Schweinehund on to something, with all this talk about reversing myopia?
This is the question. Is endmyopia just more Internet unicorn farming, or is it the real deal?
Spoiler alert, at the very least it’s run by a amusingly deranged creature of the beard.
But whatever. What counts is results, and so let’s look at some results for those who started out just like you:
Ben C.: -5.00 Diopters To -4.00
Ben originally had -5.00 with glasses and -4.50 with contacts before starting. He is currently working with -4.00 after staying at -4.25 for almost a year and a half. He sometimes uses a slightly stronger prescription at night when doing a lot of driving. See more documented cases in the EndMyopia Case Report Registry.
Jiaqi F.: -5.00 Diopters To -3.75
Jiaqi reports being down to -3.75 from -5.0 since June of this year. They say they are glad they came across the method and thanked Jake. See more documented cases in the EndMyopia Case Report Registry.
Diana: -3.75 Diopters To -3.00
Diana started wearing glasses at age 9 and stayed at -3.75 in both eyes for about 15 years. After noticing her glasses felt too strong, she began reducing her prescription in 0.25 steps on her own and is now at -3.0 in her normal glasses and -1.5 in her computer glasses. She says she is about to step her normal glasses down to -2.75. See more documented cases in the EndMyopia Case Report Registry.
Shruti: -4.50 Diopters To -3.50
In 2019 Shruti's prescription was -4.5 in her right eye and -4 in her left, with cylinder of -1.25 and -1.50. At an eye appointment in January 2023 she measured -4 in both eyes, and at her most recent appointment she was given -3.5 in the right eye and -3 in the left. She used -2 differentials for close-up work and normalised glasses of -3.75, along with active focus. See more documented cases in the EndMyopia [...]
