Myopia: A Modern Yet Reversible Disease — Todd Becker, M.S. (AHS14)

Our speaker today is Todd Becker and he's going to talk about

myopia

, a

modern

but

reversible

disease

. Thanks, it's great to be here. How many of you wear glasses or contact lenses? That's a pretty good percentage of the audience. Okay, so we'll be. Today I'm talking about your eyes and I hope you find the talk interesting, but I would like to start with two photographs of me and my daughter. The first one on the left was on a merry-go-round at the San Francisco Zoo and she was about a year old and the one on the right was newer and you may notice some differences between the picture, well I'm standing by the fact that my hair is gray, he wore glasses and the one on the left. about 20 years ago, so part of today's talk is my story about what I did to learn about

myopia

and how I got rid of my glasses, but the talk really has two parts: the first part will be about the causes of myopia myopia and you really have to start there if you want to be effective at reversing myopia and the second half will be a technique that I have developed and it is similar to techniques that others have developed but it is my own particular spin on how I use the active approach to reverse myopia. myopia.

The photograph shows some girls in high school in Singapore and in a language arts class using their iPads and you can see that all the girls in the class wear glasses and in some Asian countries like Singapore myopia is very common, So, first of all, what is myopia? Well, colloquially it is myopia and what it is biologically is a refractive defect of the eye in which, when you look into the distance, distant objects appear blurry because the images are focused in front of the retina. which in the retina, it is actually a very common disorder, probably the most common refractive error of the eye and it is becoming more common and severe myopia can lead to macular degeneration, cataracts, eye floaters, retinal detachment in severe cases, so It is something we must worry about now in my talks. about myopia, but some of you have farsightedness and it is the opposite condition.

I had to focus the talk, so I chose nearsightedness because it's more common, but a lot of the principles here, if you pay attention, also apply to farsightedness, so the question is. Is myopia caused genetically or is it environmental? There is evidence on both sides, for example twin studies and parent-child studies show a higher correlation than you would get with fraternal twins or, just by chance, there are a number of genetic mutations that have been identified as SCO 2. which has to do with copper metabolism, which is implicated in severe myopia and there is a large variation between different ethnic groups, for example, it is much higher in Asia, from 70 to 90 percent, in some countries, perhaps a third of people in the US or Europe have myopia and it is much less common in Africa.

On the other hand, there are many environmental factors, so for example there has been a large increase among Aboriginal peoples, for example the Eskimos, once they were introduced to Western education, there is a correlation between the level of achievement at school or academic level in myopia and there are some experimental demonstrations that blur generated by close work is a cause of myopia and we will go into that in some detail if we go back to some of the early studies on myopia. There is one from Holland in the 1880s looking at military recruits, looking at the occupations where people came from when they entered the army and looked at farmers and fishermen, the prevalence of myopia was about 2.5 percent if you I watched the leather workers who use their hands in the work of the course. maybe about 5% of manual workers who are doing a good job, maybe jewelers, jumps to 12% of tradesmen who were doing a lot, you know, counting paperwork, 15% and advanced students about 1/ 3, so that was an indication that there might be a relationship between the type of activity you're doing and the incidence of myopia, if you look more recently, myopia has actually increased since 1970, in all age groups, and What this shows here is different age groups, from young people to my age, where the incidence and prevalence of myopia has almost doubled and the gray and black show the incidence of the most severe or advanced types of myopia where you see a particularly big change, so if you also look at virginal people, I think a good example is the Eskimos and this was A study done by Francis Young in 1969 in Alaska, if you look at the incidence by age group, It's very interesting because in 1969 there was a school in operation for about 30 or 40 years, so people over 40 had not had Western education. education and you can see that there is virtually no incidence of myopia there, whereas those who had been introduced to Western education had in some cases over 50% incidence again, some evidence of an environmental factor if you look at Germany, there was a study done recently where people who did not complete secondary or vocational education had maybe 20, 30 percent or 20 percent myopia, those who completed their secondary education increased to maybe 35 and then those who completed college , more than half of them had myopia and there is some geographical distribution that indicates countries particularly in Asia where there is more schooling even at young ages like 7 to 9 years old, we see that in Singapore, for example, there is 34% of myopia, whereas in Nepal it's only 3% and that compares to a modest maybe 7 or 8 percent in the US again in schoolchildren, so there is another environmental factor which is diet and there are some studies, particularly conducted by Cordain, showing that, for example, eating a lot of carbohydrates not surprisingly can induce a higher incidence of myopia and has been linked to hyperemia and Selenia to excessive carbohydrate consumption. a deficiency of fish oil and essential fatty acids and mineral deficiencies now Cordain opined that genetics were not really that important because he was studying that children on the non-wahoo islands went to school eight hours a day and yet, they only had about 2% myopia, but you know, as I'll argue later, it's not genetics or the environment, but I think the two come together and if you think about it in terms of epigenetics or the environment acting on the Genes, it's kind of like alcoholism, right? a predilection gene for alcoholism, but if you are not exposed to alcohol you will not have it, you will not have that condition.

Well, there was a study done by Douglas Frederick in 2002 that showed that if you had the genetic indicator for myopia and you engaged in genetic myopic practices, such as schooling near work, you could have strong myopia of more than two diopters, whereas if you didn't you're predisposed and you had those habits, you might have milder myopia, however, if you had practices other than my OPA, Janek, basically, Oh either. a low level of education or occupation that did not involve much close work there was mild or no myopia. It's a very interesting article, so let's get into biology.

Do you know how you can explain this? Okay, so I think it's important to start. With an understanding of how the focus of the eye is set, if you look at the eye, it has this lens, the crystalline lens, which just like in a camera can change shape to focus light on the back of the retina, where you perceive the image now when you are looking at distant objects and most of the rays come in parallel, the lens is quite flat so not much focusing is needed; However, when you focus closer, the lens actually has to expand and become more curved and tight.

As with a magnifying glass, you will tend to be able to focus the light. Now, in a healthy way, I can go back and forth between those two states of focus quite easily. However, what happens in myopia is actually a process that develops in a couple of stages. So first of all, as we saw in the diagram above, you have a thin lens when you look at distant objects and you have a thicker lens when you look at close objects if you spend a lot of time working on the computer or after reading or looking at your smartphone, when is doing its job, the lens will go into spasm and it will be much harder for it to thin again when you look into the distance, so now when you look into the distance instead of focusing on the retina, you are focusing in front of the retina and you perceive a blurry image, so this can be temporary, you know, and this is what happens when you're in elementary school, but if you're doing a lot of close work, you're looking at your smartphone all the time, that twitch becomes more permanent , then you go to the optician and the optometrist and they put lenses on you that are convex lenses and when you put them in front of your eye, it kind of has the effect of making it seem like you are seeing things in focus when you look into the distance and everything is very good, However, there is a problem here because that distance correction now causes focus behind the retina when you look up close. and this induces a very interesting process and I will go into its biology by which the axis of the eye lengthens and it has to do with a biological mechanism that has to do with focus D now when the eye lengthens suddenly the eye is longer this is fine when you are doing your job where you spend most of your time however you have the same problem that you had with pseudomyopia in that now you are focusing in front of the retina and those images are how to focus so what do you do ?

You go back to the optician and you get a stronger prescription and the process repeats itself over and over again and this was my experience where I had to get stronger and stronger prescriptions. To be able to see in focus, there's a theory called incremental retinal D-focus theory and it was developed by Heung and Cher Fretta and there's some very interesting recent data in humans that show that if you actually put a person with an a - lens in the correct axis of the eye will grow and in just one hour the length of the eye increases by more than five millimeters, which is significant because the eye is only twenty-five millimeters long, on the other hand, if a plus lens is placed in front of the eye in Over the course of an hour it will be reduced by about ten millimeters and if you simply place a neutral lens there will be no changes.

This is a human study. It is very recent. Much of the oldest data was obtained in primates. in chicks, but this is exciting because now they have tools that use a photometer that they can measure the length of the eye when you're focusing and I think this is a pretty interesting test of what's happening, so what's really happening is that when you put this lens on the eye and focus behind the retina, there is a process by which there is a growth of scleral tissue and the scleral tissue grows in response to some neuromodulators that are secreted when there is a blur and it's actually quite interesting .

These neuromodulators have been shown experimentally to increase the elasticity of the scleral tissue and allow them to lengthen the same process because of the way that can happen in farsightedness, where you are focusing in the other direction and it can cause the eye to shorten. Let's see if we are going to put this into practice. Can we take this learning and turn it into a method to reverse myopia? I mean, there you saw an experimental demonstration of how placing a lens in front of the eye can change its shape in such a way that in this sense, I would like to touch on a key principle that I write about in my blog, increasingly stronger, and that is the hormesis.

Mises is a beneficial response of an organism to a stressor at low doses that is otherwise harmful or lethal at high doses and works by activating various defense or repair mechanisms and there are many examples that you may be familiar with, e.g. , exercise and immunization, calorie restriction, exposure to heat or cold, these cause an adaptive response, UV radiation, phytonutrient formation, calluses, if you play the guitar, go barefoot, you get the skin growth there and I will argue that the Active approach is also analogous to exercise in this sense; exercise, particularly weight lifting, is a great example of hormesis.

If you lift heavy objects, you're causing these micro tears, micro trauma to the muscle. and as a result you get a super compensation, as long as you don't overdo it, your muscles will grow stronger again. The key is that you have to train optimally by working on the edge of failure, if you train too much, you will succeed. you damage the muscle if you train little you don't get a response and this is sometimes called specific adaptation to impose demand or said principle, so how can we apply this to reverse myopia? But first imagine that you went to a gym and wanted to get stronger and you applied the same model that Thomas Tris did, now you go to the ophthalmologist and what they give you when they give you a pair of glasses or lenses is essentially a crutch, right? you want to have immediate satisfaction, to see things. crystal clarity immediately you wouldn't want to do any work well if you went to the gym and instead of exercising youThey said here we are going to put an exoskeleton on you and it is no joke that there is a defense contractor that is In fact, I propose this for soldiers who have to carry out long walks and training missions.

They would wear this exoskeleton and as they move, that would amplify their muscle strength and make life easier. What do you think would happen if you used this? exoskeleton all the time, probably the same thing that happens to astronauts in space, their muscles atrophy, they weaken and when they remove the exoskeleton the problem is even worse. Well my argument is that this is exactly what you were doing when you were in glasses you are weakening your eyes like this So let's talk about how we can apply hormesis to make your eyes less myopic. Well, there are some techniques, first of all, there is printing pressure and also glasses that you wear while reading.

Secondly, there is a distance, there is the use of progressively weaker lenses. or ghost image fusion which I will talk about so first you have to understand how nearsighted you are and the best way to do that is to use a Snellen chart which you are all familiar with if you have been to the DMV or If you have been to the ophthalmologist, there are a series of letters with different lines and you stand 20 feet back and see how far you can read, so if you could read to line 4, there are lengths of a line 5, the PE cfd would have a Snellen score of 2040, which which means you can see at 20 feet what a normal person can see at 40 feet and if you can only read the e at the top well, then you have a problem, but if you translate that into the recipe, you will get it, if you look at That person in 2040, they might get a prescription of about point five diopters, which means they could see normal sized text about 52 inches in front of them without glasses, so first you have to know your strength, now this is where the interesting thing comes there if you really want to work on reversing your myopia you have to read without glasses if you have them so I would like to distinguish three different distances and this is my daughter acting as a model here in front of the computer so you are sitting in front of the computer or a book and you're reading, take off your glasses now if you wear them and hold something printed in front of you, okay, keep it at a distance where you can see things in focus and shoot that's d1, that's what I call the edge of focus, now push it a little more until it starts to blur, you can see the beginning of the blur and that's what I call the edge of blur and that's d2, push it. go back a little more and it starts to get confusing that's too far that's the limit of readability well this is analogous to when you go to the gym choosing the right weight, you want to choose that weight that puts you right on the edge of discomfort and you What you want to do is if you go here, you just go back and forth between d1 and d2 as you read and keep holding it down a little bit and you'll feel like it's a little bit awkward. but it's never painful, it's never difficult, so you'll read between d1 and d2 and you'll do this for about two to four hours every day, you'll take a break every fifteen to thirty minutes or so, and eventually what you'll find is that you can increase d1 and d2 you can move it a little further, maybe the second day you get another inch of distance, okay, keep doing this.

You'll actually be surprised how fast it works once you get 20 inches away, if you can see. that you are in excellent shape now you need to use plus lenses, so if you have strong myopia you don't need to use anything, but if your myopia starts to weaken now you use plus lenses, so this is what do it if your correction is a little weaker yes you need it, if you have a correction of less than minus two diopters, you go to the pharmacy and you will see these shelves with readers and you can try the plus one or the plus 1.25. or the plus one point five, choose a pair so that you can comfortably read between 15 and 20 inches, so now that you are starting to put yourself at a disadvantage, this is like going for a run carrying weights and you are going to get stronger faster this way This way, you could buy several pairs and, as you get stronger and stronger, you could work your way up to a plus two.

Now you will find that as you look into the distance everything begins to become clear and that is very exciting, continue. and keep testing your Snellen, you know, every week to see if you can read more and more into those lines. Okay, what do you do when you're not reading? You say you're going to walk around watching television. You're sitting in a room like this and you want to get better, maybe you're writing as a passenger in a car. I wouldn't recommend this when you drive well so what you do there is you get weaker lenses so let's say your prescription is for a minus three so get a minus 2.5 now maybe your optometrist will cooperate and do it for you , but if not, go online, go to zhenya Optical comm and put in your prescription and here you will have some frames around $7 and with the lenses it could be $20.

Order a few pairs of progressively weaker lenses, so if are at -3 get a -2.5, get a - to get a -1.5 and then as you get better and better, move down to the weaker lenses. Okay, now I'm going. to talk about a technique that is really fun and very playful in the spirit of Darrell Edwards and this is a true story, how did I discover this technique? Well, I was on vacation. I left my glasses at home on the other side of the US. So I went without glasses for two weeks and at first I was very frustrated.

I had brought some good books to read and my eyes were all blurry, so I went for a walk and said, "Okay, I'll see what I can do." Without glasses, what I noticed is that when I looked into the distance, particularly at objects that had strong contrast, like the edge of a building or overhead telephone wires, I could see a sharp image and then I saw next to it a very faint secondary image and This is sometimes called diplopia or double vision, it is not a serious problem unless it is in only one eye, which you should tell your ophthalmologist, but it is usually just a refractive problem when your eyes have mild nearsightedness, not very strong nearsightedness. .

You'll see these two images, sometimes you'll see more than two and it will actually only refract the IV phenomenon, but it's actually quite useful because the more you look at this, you'll find that one of those two images is darker than the other. The other one on the right and as you keep looking you will find that one becomes darker and the other becomes lighter and fainter and eventually merges together. It was a very exciting discovery for me: by looking at distant objects, particularly with high contrast, I could begin to merge the images. So this was my method for actively focusing and looking into the distance and the plus glasses for working on the computer.

Well, there are some key questions here. The method really works. How much time should I spend each day doing this? How long before my vision? improves and is the same as the Bates Method. Well, a couple of facts, first of all, it worked for me and dozens of other people. I write a blog that is going strong and has had over 1.3 million views. There are two posts in particular that I encourage you. To see what has to do with improving vision, one of them is called improved vision and throw away the glasses and then I have a forum where there is a thread called vision without glasses and these have more than a hundred thousand views and so do I.

I'll show you some slides with references at the end of the talk and they'll be on my website. If you're skeptical or want to follow the science behind it, how much time should you spend on it in the first place? you must have the right mindset these are not exercises that you like going to the gym these are activities that you integrate into your daily activity while working on the computer while working every day or while going for a walk spend at least two to four hours pushing without glasses plus if you have mild myopia if you have strong myopia and with lenses plus if you have mild myopia and take breaks it is very important not to sit there looking at the screen all the time look in the distance look closely look look closer look far away at the point key again it should be uncomfortable but never painful if your eyes are red or you strain to, take a few days off try again how long does it take to work?

That's the other question. I always have patience again. It took years for your eyes to reach this condition. It's not going to change overnight. How do you approach exercise, going to the gym and dieting? You don't expect immediate results. However, you have to work at this. Keep in mind that you are going to see clearly and that is going to be exciting. I mean, the only thing I have to say here is that it was the most exciting thing for me to be able to take off my glasses and see everything clearly. detail to see expressions to see leaves on trees find little you know branches to see little patterns in the sky that I've never seen before if that doesn't motivate you I don't know what what can it's just incredibly liberating to be free of glasses and not have lenses contact, so normally most people see some improvements within a few weeks and the rate of improvement is usually faster at first, it is common to see a sudden improvement and then no change for a while and then a sudden improvement , but that's how it works going to the gym right or on hold, it's not a constant line, but again, the excitement comes at the end, when you no longer need glasses, is it the same as the Bates Method?

Well, actually Bates had the theory that you need to relax the eye and he had a misconception about physiology. He thought that focusing the eye muscles had to do with the muscles around the eye tensing or relaxing and that you were actually changing the shape of the eye. I now know that is not the case, it is the ciliary muscles and the lens that change the shape of the lens. I mean, I was probably right about eye strain and the fact that you need to relax, however, it only really addressed half of the problem, which is what I called pseudo Myopia in that initial period where you can't see in focus, not really. addressed mild axial myopia because I didn't know the I would lengthen or shorten and unfortunately their relaxation and distance viewing methods are the same.

They're great, right, I think they're fantastic, but they don't really do anything for those of us who sit in front of a computer all day, because you can only spend a certain amount of time looking into the distance and what we know from the La Incremental theory of retinal T focusing is that it is a kind of average exposure over time at different focal lengths, it is important, so if you are going to spend a lot of time in front of the computer, you need a technique and that is where the idea of ​​boosting the impression by holding the piece of paper or the screen at the right distance, without getting too close, without depending on your lenses, but working right on that threshold between focus and blur, focus and blur, it is a very threshold. small and you can find it pretty easily so that's what Bates I didn't offer well so I'd like to summarize your eyes are adaptive organs just like your muscles just like your metabolism just like everything about you that you've been reading up close For years you have been working with smartphones those are particular The problem with children is true, they are looking at their smartphone or their video game all the time and as a result their glasses twitch.

He needs progressively stronger lens prescriptions to correct that problem, but that only ensures that I grow older and his nearsightedness gets worse. so reverse the process do the opposite, use the same adaptability to reverse the process and use active focus take time out of your busy routine look at distant objects stand back when reading if you are sitting watching a TV show sit as far back as possible If you are in a conference room, you can sit as far back as you can to see everything without your glasses, if your myopia is weak and your eyes are very well using Plus lenses to speed up the process, and when you use those Plus lenses. you will find it Wow, everything is very clear, so stimulate your eyes, it is very important play with your eyes, have fun with this, this is not a task, incorporate it into your daily life, make it a habit, but make it a game when you are. walking along a path look at each little branch trace those branches well look at the shadows look at what you can make out there is a wonderful world around you that you don't notice, but only a fraction of the details and it is very exhilarating to be able to do it without your glasses , what I can tell you is that the more you do this and the more disciplined you are in doing it, the better your results will be.

Anyway, that's all I have to offer you today and I'm glad to see the questions first before. I answer questions. I just wanted to show here some references on the epidemiology and biological mechanism. Well, this will be in the video and you can take a snapshot and finally about the methods that you can use to improve your vision and some websites in particular. I recommend DeAngelis' book in Severson's book and Otis Brown's really good methods on my site for strengthening the Feld clinic electric vision system frown, these are all good sites that have similar methods, okay, we have time for ten minutes.

I'd take the first one, thanks. It was really interesting. I was wondering if you still haveYou have to do these types of exercises now or you are just more or less cured. So, just like you would when you're in shape, you go to the gym from time to time, right. I would say periodically. I have a pair of plus glasses, if I read a lot, I take them out and wear them for a while, but not really much because what I tend to do is just sit a little further away from my screen and try to avoid bad habits, in Firstly, since this screen is a potentially negative part of the environment, I noticed that if you know your daughter was modeling in front of the screen, it is best to try training with books and not looking at screens.

Is there a certain amount of time to look at a screen considering how much you said smartphones and computers are harming our eyes? Yes, I think it is preferable to have a well-lit book in front of you would be ideal, but sometimes you don't have that option, so if you are working on the computer I don't see any real difference, as long as you have good lighting and are healthy, you can use the computer or a book thanks that's fine, it seems that in my family we have myopia. My brother has two eyes that measure around 21,000, so he can't do anything without glasses.

I have an unusual problem: this eye is perfect and I am really nearsighted when you look at the Snellen charts I can no longer read the larger print, but the problem is that I remember what it is, then you see that your two eyes are different, very different , this is, by the way, very common, it is called amblyopia. I have it too. In fact, I have one slightly farsighted eye and one slightly nearsighted eye, so here's what you need to do right: If you have two different eyes, block one eye and work with the weaker eye because your stronger eye will dominate. and will do more. it works for you you can put a patch on your glasses you can just hold your hand like this or you can wink the right link of an idea and it's awkward at first putting your wink muscle gets stronger yeah because i have 20/20 and 24hundred Okay, so i think my problem is that I can read here and I can read here and only here it's difficult because my eyes are not used to competing for dominance and they don't like that, oh, so I should probably do it. read a lot here so that my eyes get used to seeing in three dimensions, it would be yes, but your eyes are very different.

I think you probably want to work on your eye first until it gets close because it's much easier to do this method when your eyes are closed, so in my case it was you, my left eye that was weaker and I spent a lot of time working until it the two were evenly matched, would you have any advice for my brother who would probably have to be this close to the computer before he could even get to the edge of readability, that's tough but that's where use maybe his nose gets in the way along the way yeah now that's where you start one thing you can do is use a weakened prescription so cut a few diopters off the prescription so it's a reasonable distance away in this case it would be a prescription but just weaken it the recipe and start there.

Many thanks to someone with a really strong prescription, if he goes through this process, will he have to replace his glasses down the road because they can be quite expensive, yes, and that's why I recommended this website. Any optical communication, very cheap frames, you know, get several pairs for 15 or $20 frames or glasses, about six dollars for the frames and with lenses, it could be. Twenty to thirty dollars total is fine, thank you similar question about uneven like I'm a - six point five and minus five do I exercise like? I just make a point like a negative six and leave it the same or write back to both at the same time, I mean how do you work with this?

You know, without blinking or whatever, yours are pretty close, so they might work, but if you want to wink or lock your eye harder and work with the minus six. one first until it goes down to minus five and you can use the Snellen chart there; with one eye, you know, read as much as you can and wait until your eyes are more uniform and then they will proceed together. Just like if you went to the gym and you had a strong right arm and a weak or left arm, you would want to work the weaker arm first until they were both similar so you could get lenses, which I'm only going to lower one. lenses for something like that, yes, I buy them or I just put a patch on our diffuser in front of one leg, okay, thanks, hello.

I was just curious to see how much your axial length has actually changed since using this method, unfortunately I don't have the device to measure my axial link requires a sophisticated apparatus; However, in the study that I cited there, you can read about 28 different patients and see all the measurements that were done on their eyes, but typically if you look at the results that they got, it would be by several millimeters, so sorry, several microns, yeah, okay, so I think one of the things that your method teaches is to improve your visual acuity and not necessarily change the optics of the eye, which can help, but I just want to say that the optical problems that exist are not They are being corrected because it is just about improving your visual acuity through practice.

I just want to say that yes, if you have other eye conditions besides myopia, you know, yes, this doesn't address them, thank you for a very insightful talk. I have a question about font size when you do this, a lot of people, especially here in the Bay Area in tech, use a larger font size and stay the same distance, so would you still recommend it? If you use a larger font size to move away from the screen to the right, there is obviously a connection between font size and distance, so the recommendation here was for normal size font, if larger you would have have to go back further to obtain the same benefit. beyond a short distance, even despite using a beer background, the problem is focusing on a short distance, that's right, that's right, so you want to increase the distance, whatever the font size, going back further and more progressively, thank you and yes I have children who have 20/20 vision, how can I prevent them from ending up with glasses?

Yeah, I have a good question, so first of all, good hygiene, which means don't work to close, write the work your way, but if you want to do it. who can use weekly plus lenses like the plus ones, the readers are very economical, just go to any pharmacy, they are there, if they are doing long work, ask them to use them, many people see this as a preventive technique and do an experiment, Ask them to put on the plus lenses and read for an hour, take them off and ask them: Do you now see the world sharper and clearer than before?

Just ask them, thank you, okay, I think two more questions I've never had. I have a problem with myopia, but I'm getting to the point where I need reading glasses and more recently night driving is less comfortable, wondering any thoughts on those two problems. I think the two protect each other as you get older. your vision deteriorates and it's harder to see things at night, in particular one thing I didn't touch on is Anya's, you know, a good diet. I think that helps a lot in terms of a low insulin diet and also a lot of phytonutrients so that you have your rods and cones are healthy so that you can detect color in low light, but I also think that these healthy approach methods will be helpful for at night because you will see the car lights and the details that you need to see more clearly. the same principles as you, the same principles yes, okay, final question: what if people kept going after the division was back to normal, would they continue to improve?

Oh, there's a post on an interview I did on my site with a student who had vision problems. She got to 20/20 and said, I want to do better than this. I want super vision and he went down to 2015. Continue. It is called how a person improved his vision or a person first his eyesight and used the method to obtain. until 2015 and if it continued like this it would create the opposite problem for myopia, ah no I mean you can get better and better vision at a distance but you can use the same process for farsightedness if you can't see things it closes then you and you have to read like that, then do the opposite, pull them in until they are at the edge and eventually you will be able to read closer, you can basically change the shape of your eye. in any direction using active focus correctly, so I would continue after it was normal, like after my own myopia is resolved, create farsightedness, not necessarily not, I mean, because it is correct, as long as you are flexible and can exercise your eyes. that you are looking at both close up and then vision and I recommend alternating the two, increase the focus range from near to far.

Thank you if you improve your myopia using your technique, do you think that will reduce your chances of suffering from macularity? degeneration, uh, maybe if you look at some of the causal contributors to macular generation retinal detachment, eye floaters, you'll see that myopia is featured prominently there, it's not the only cause, but there is a connection, okay, thank you so much.
