I think he wrote you need to stop using Glasses to get improvement,

Thank you Nancy. This is very helpful and encouraging. I will do my best to take it easy without straining my poor eyes anymore than they already are from the hours of computer work I have to do for college and other work. Perhaps sometime down the road I will give a progress update.
I do believe (although some days the belief is weaker than other days) that eliminating or at least reducing my astigmatism is possible. I just really need to get better at suppressing the negative thoughts. Again, thank you for taking the time to respond to my questions it has been an enormous help and I hope that this approach helps me, not only with my eyes but for my body as a whole.

Thank you Nancy. I did read the article about dim lighting and found it helpful. I know a part of it is that I need to relax and not be strained, but I know for a fact that the shape of my cornea is ever so slightly warped that makes everything in the dark (especially bright green and blue things) be seen as double (astigmatism). I can still function without glasses in the dark but it’s very stressful as I am constantly reminded of the double vision I used to not have, no matter where I look. I know that glasses will only make the problem worse. Can reducing my emotional and visual tension really help my cornea actually change shape and restore to a perfect sphere?

Joe, hi. I don’t wear glasses at all now, partly from stubbornness and bad memories 🙂 and also because they don’t help much, as my vision can vary a lot depending on my emotional state. I have no problem driving in daylight, even in rain or dim conditions, and have not yet challenged myself to drive after dark. I do walk around my neighborhood after dark regularly. I can see 20/20 sometimes in good conditions, not all the time. My average vision is probably 20/30 or so, sometimes better, sometimes worse.

For people improving a myopic pattern, night time vision usually comes last. This article may give you a few things to think about: https://www.iblindness.org/3153/how-can-i-see-better-in-dim-light/.

Vacheslav, if prayer works for you, great! My energy teacher says prayer is often like meditation, which relaxes the entire body and mind, and can allow it to heal. And remember, not everyone is Christian. All can benefit from these natural healing methods. 🙂

Steve, yes, and I also especially recommend the Better Eyesight Magazine compilation by Tom Quackenbush, case after case of folks Dr. Bates helped with his simple natural methods, over 100 years ago. It really gives one hope.

The original Bate’s books and monthly magazine are amazing. Written in about 1920. He writes about healing all ages and most of his patients wore glasses until the learned from him. Your book would make him roll in his grave unless you did misread it. To heal your eyes is like healing any other part of your body. #1 Dont poison yourself NO Fluoride from drinking water #2 Nourish yourself (I was deficient in iodine) #3 Recreation/movement of the eyes #4 the eyes REST while they see and after they see (no strain) And also #5 See beautiful things. Want to see it. If you look at something stressfull your eyes may want to head in the wrong direction.
