Hello everyone, I'm new here and I'm not really interested in the Bates Method, but I'm curious about Ortho-C

I think what Julesmoz means is that the reversingnearsightedness.com sells the book (and some other things included with it), but does not come with the contact lenses. I have the same question as well. I'm guessing that once you order the book, there are instructions included on getting your keratometer reading and ordering your contact lenses from John. By the way, has anybody else had success with ortho-c? I'm considering to try it out and post my results, maybe even start a blog like Jay was going to do.

What I've heard anecdotally about this is that you have to keep wearing the lenses all night every night and then you can see more clearly during the day, that it's not a permanent fix. I'm thinking, how could you sleep restfully with something in your eye? Also, like Lasik, it's not doing anything to address your underlying habits of misuse and strain. Sounds like mechanical Lasik to me, a "quick fix" which really isn't.

no...you are talking about ortho k, ortho c is something different.

you need to wear them only for a couple of minutes a day and the results are permanent. Atleast that what he claims.

I think any vision improvement method that simply addresses the eyeball is as misguided and ignorant as the lenses and surgery they think they're replacing.
How will it affect eye dominance?
How will it resynchronize the user's eyes?
How will it reactivate the optic chiasm?
How will it help the user reorient themself?
Maybe those necessary aspects of normal vision will magically occur as a result of the magical orthoK or orthoC - but what if they don't? Will the eyesight be improved for each individual eye, but the individual themself continue in their misguided pathway and habits? I don't like it.
On a more practical consideration, what kind of additional stresses are put onto the already stressed eyeballs? Sounds to me like you're playing with fire.

Hmmmm...... I just reread the original 2008 post for ortho C and it sounds better than I'd thought. I guess I will have to do some research on it.

OK, thanks for correcting me, but it still sounds too good to be true. Most of us were given perfect bodies and eyes at birth, but managed to create lopsided posture or swayback or pigeon toes or myopia or whatever with our incorrect habits, or "use of ourselves" as the Alexander Technique would say. Mechanically changing the shape of the eye without changing the emotional or mental habits of how we use it doesn't seem to me to be a total solution. I'm sticking with my Bates work.

Greetings,

I am new to this forum and recently stumbled upon it because I was looking for others who have tried or considered trying ortho c lens. I tried them back in 2007 and wrote some blog posts about them. I wrote today my final experience with them. I can't seem to post my web address but it's under my profile so please read it to learn more.


I don't recommend ortho c. I am going to go with ortho k instead. I had my eyes tested yesterday. Back in 2007, they were -8.5 and -8 and now were -7.5 and -8.25. Initially the ortho c lens improved my eyes by 2 diopters but obviously the improvement is only temporary and not permanent as Yee advertises it.

Someone mentioned he was personable and I agree. I don't think he is trying to scam people, I just don't think he has a good product. Perhaps he's not the best of scientists as it's not peer reviewed and it's just him. At least with other methods like ortho k, there are people working on the idea and it gets peer reviewed.

I hope people can read about my experience. I don't recommend ortho c.

All these contact lense treatments are dangerous. Use the Bates Method.

How do I find an eye doctor in the US who works with Ortho C. I have only found ones that work with Ortho K. In that case are there any in FL?
