Starting Point: -6 To -8 Diopters
This isn’t super awesome, mostly just because it’ll take you a little while to make it back to 20/20.
Which one could say, is actually kind of awesome. So far all the so-called professionals and doctors have been telling you that nothing at all can be done about your bug-eyed level of shortsightedness. They say suck it up, you’re a genetic dumpster fire. Give us your credit card, you tragic aberation, and buy these here 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:
Brice: -7.25 Down To -4.50 (Plus Reduced Child Myopia)
Today let's take a quick look at a great e-mail from Brice, who managed to reduce diopter dependence for himself, and his entire family. While I only manage to post a small amount of the total improvements being made by endmyopia followers, ones like this are pretty instructional. All it takes is one family member to take the lead. Learn about the biology basics, learn about diopter dependence, learn about the realities of myopia, as well [...]
Katarina: -8.00 Reduced To -6.50 (In 5 Months)
Initial gains! Important to note as you read this, that initial gains are usually 1) reducing over-correction from the optometrist and 2) reducing ciliary muscle spasm. It's not the magic part of getting all the way back to 20/20, but it's a great start. Here's Katarina: Beginner gains. It's great for motivation! Of course you can get beginner gains from doing all kinds of things. There are a million ways to reduce ciliary muscle spasm, and [...]
Sean’s Take – Endmyopia & Improving Eyesight (Video)
Video, kittehs. Moar video! I've been asking our fellow myopia dissidents to try out video for talking about their 20/20 gains. Not easy getting those, understandably. Unless you're a teenager hoping to hit the Youtube gold, or an extrovert narcissist, sitting in a room by yourself while talking at a lens isn't the most natural thing. Just look at the first 50 of your favorite Jakey's videos, pretty obviously not quite comfortable with that whole process. [...]
Aniket: -6.75 Down To -4.50 (Optometrist Confirmed)
Kittehz! If you've been coming around looking for new blog updates and left wanting, please accept the humblest of all beardly apologies. Lots been going on: I've posted a few new videos on our Youtube channel, spent quite a bit of time in our new private forum, updated our privacy policy, e-mail list, and BackTo20/20 to finalize GDPR compliance, finished updating the site and BackTo20/20 to full SSL encryption, updated the site to handle Google's new [...]
John: -8.75 Down To -3.50 (In 2 Years)
Uncle Jakey's been getting a wee bit bored, lately. The hate and snippy comments from optometry professionals have long stopped. Not ah-one of them is stepping up to let out some rant questioning divinity and the existence of eyeguru-ashrams on misty mountain tops. Come on. there used to be at least a few of those e-mails, most days! Most of my motivation has been coming from adversity. If it's not about trolling the mainstream or schooling [...]
Felix: -9.00 High Myopia To 20/40 WITHOUT GLASSES
Hello darlings! Your favorite eye guru has been increasingly less completely on point of keep track of 20/20 gains updates posted by our kitteh gang. Every time I say there are more updates than I can post here, and every month it seems like the last time I said it was much fewer in comparison to the current moment. More and more and moar gains updates are coming in, as the site and project continue [...]
