Haven’t done one of these eyeball gains compilations in a million years.
You know how it is. Doing endmyopia way too long, getting way too old for this sh*t. Die Hard, was it that movie? Bruce Willis?
Maybe you aren’t way too old for this sh*t.
Maybe you are way ready to get rid of stupid glasses. 1/4 diopters at a time:
Yup, that is a lot of small victories.
Instead of diopters going up, you’re taking them down. It’s all pretty easy once you’re in the swing of things.
Here’s another one:
You know that’s a lot of diopter reductions right there too, going from a -9 to a -6.
And one more:
Guess that’s having saved best for last?
You have to forgive me, being jaded here. There are a lot of these 20/20 recovery stories. And there are a lot of optometrist confirmed reports.
And it honestly doesn’t matter how many I put online. A lot of people use any sort of positive just as a basis to poke holes. But Jake, where is the prescription document? And then when there is, it’s why did you blur the person’s name? Jake it could be photoshopped. And it goes on and on no matter what. Like I would honestly have the impossible level of motivation to make up things for ten years. Thousands of them. Have a whole podcast just of participant improvements. Facebook with some thirty thousand people posting updates, for also going on a decade now.
I honestly didn’t plan this but just as example, for FB group updates:
See, that’s from literally three hours ago, today.
Not planned, just as I was already typing Facebook group in the usual guru complaining of how people just don’t want to admit reality … really everywhere you look, people who want gains, get gains. That’s the facts.
There are just three groups of people when it comes to eyesight. Largest group is the “I don’t give a f**k” group. People who’ll just blindly amble through life, using corrective lenses, don’t care that they could fix their eyes. Kind of symbolic for why people’s lives are generally crap, due to not caring about things like, hey you literally can’t see out of your own eyeballs. And that being met with a shrug. What can you say about them?
Second group, the people who see others striving for solutions, digging through science, experiments, challenges … and then they find ways to try to bring those people down. This group doesn’t just idly not care, they’re out to bring their own negativity to everywhere that they can. Pollinators of negativity. Go on reddit for more than 5 minutes, you’ll find them. Online people. It’s a theme, seemingly.
Third group, people you don’t see online much. Hobbies, life, family, business, things going on. They’re on a path, always, to improve their lives and those around them. I’m narrowing this into a vision improvement theme of course, and of course not all people know or have the priority time at the moment ot work on their eyes. Generally though, this group goes, hmmm. Well well, we must investigate x-new-finding (sooner or later).
That’s a small group, group three. Just like people in great health are a small group (relatively, especially the further West you get it seems). People not in giant piles of crushing debt. People not on any number of anti depressants. People not still believing that mainstream media isn’t owned by a couple of giant corporations, ruled by dudes flying private jets and wishing you didn’t take up space and pollute their rivers and clog up their roads. Bill Gates and them, who make you wonder why we even need to make up movie villains or read Stephen King novels. These guys are real and out there, ready to corporate-philantrophize us right out of existence.
Well … there we go again, that got dark quick. This is why I’m not online much either. Started all starry eyed twenty years ago, and by now realizing that group 1 and group 2 are a real thing, apply to every part of life, and probably make up 70-90% of humans you’re going to encounter. I’m totally fine living simply and far from all that, focus on sports and adventures and minimal online exposure.
If you want to fix your eyeballs, I’ll help you anyway. Free stuff is free, doesn’t include my time or help. Lots of free stuff. If you want your eyesight to be a more serious, focused-on-results project, find me via BackTo20/20. It’s awesome, it works, and I even skip all of these rants and sarcasm.
Cheers,
