I agree, it’s good to look at other perspectives on a problem like this including Jacob Liberman’s. I’m big on analyzing data, but at the same time I have to be careful because there’s more things going on that are affecting the outcome than what I’m looking at. Bates was big on the concept of relaxation, which isn’t wrong, but he loads it up pretty heavily and I think there are other ways of understanding it.

He spent a considerable amount of time to show that the exterior muscles are what cause imperfect vision and not the lenses. The third paragraph under “Practical Results” is really the summary of all the work.

I think it is important to make the distinction between the findings and the cure. It seems to me that some people tend to over analyze the findings and they approach the cure with the same mindset that created their imperfect vision in the first place. Jacob Liberman’s book “Take off your glasses and see” dives deep into changing to what he called “effortless seeing and learning”. It is changing the approach itself or I guess I would rather call it “releasing the old way of seeing and letting your system see as humans are intrinsically meant to see and evolve if let be”.

Excellent! Keep me updated on how it goes!

I’m seeing more and more that the weakening of 3d perception is a big factor!
