Thread: afterimage post shifting
Post: Re: afterimage post shifting

Cezar, I have seen after-images when sunning, and also when looking at the chart. I have wondered with amusement if this was my mind's desperate attempt to "hang onto" the image. I think there is also...

I've seen an abnormal fear in myself of going down stairs for a long time now, which may be the same thing. I thought it was from not being aware of where my feet are (ungrounded!), and also sometimes...

Thread: Sungazing / Sun Treatment / Sunning
Post: RE: Sungazing / Sun Treatment / Sunning

Someone sent me a PM today noting my big gains from when I started vision improvement, and wondering if I do sunning. (Funny that some folks wonder why I'm not 20/20 yet, probably those with mild pres...

Thread: I dont get this
Post: RE: I dont get this

gekonus, about 10/20 being the same as 20/40 being the same as 5/10 because they're mathematically equivalent, you're right -- that doesn't really work. People are not machines! My unproven guess as t...

Post: Re: Practicing with myopia

It's fine to hold the chart in your hand. When it starts to feel too close this way and the practice too easy, prop it up and start moving back. Play with different distances.

Put the chart close enough so you can make out the first few lines. I wish I'd known this when I started, as I avoided the chart completely, since I could barely see the big C at the top more than a f...

It's not either-or. You can still practice Bates techniques while wearing corrective lenses (under-corrected, I hope), though of course you're better off if you're not wearing them much. Second point...

At first I thought you were straining to "blur out the background", which would not be a good thing -- you should be letting it happen instead of making it happen. However, the results you're seeing, ...
