bates also advocated reading the smallest letter on the snelling for an extended amount of time a day. This seems to be ignored. all the bates teachers/website seem to just focus on relaxation, shifting, swings, etc.
print pushing/reading snellen/pushing focus was a MAJOR part of the bates method.

Perhaps they are just trying not to be "all over the place," as some have claimed.
Reading the smallest letterS, would be more accurate, he never advocated staring at one letter for an extended period of time. Quite the contrary. Bates never described using the eyechart in the manner that you define, as "print pushing." Your sweeping generalizations that ALL Bates teachers and sites ignore using an eyechart is, just silly.
