Reading Fine Print close to the eyes
#1
Bates stated:
"THE photographic reduction of the fine print can be used with great benefit to patients suffering from high degrees of nearsightedness. At first it has to be held at a certain close distance from the eyes and cannot be seen so well if placed an inch further or an inch nearer. When read easily or perfectly the white spaces between the lines appear much whiter than they really are and the card seems to be moving from side to side or in other directions, if one takes the trouble to notice it. The eyes are blinking frequently and this is also usually an unconscious act.

More perfect rest or relaxation of the eyes is obtained by reading this fine print perfectly than by doing some other things. By alternately looking at the large letters of the Snellen Test Card at five or ten feet or further and reading the fine print close to the eyes, one can obtain flashes of improved vision at the distance. By practicing, these flashes become more frequent and the letters are seen more continuously. The method is to be highly recommended because it seems to be one of the best methods of improving the distant vision." [BEM, May '24]

Once I learned to relax into it, I found fine print very beneficial to helping restore my vision, and in helping maintain near vision even though I should be well into presbyopic age. At first, practice other methods to release mental strain and tension prior to, and during the reading of fine text (closing the eyes to rest them, palming, swinging, etc.) I cannot be forced in any way, and as Bates states, you have to first find that distance where you see it best, where an inch closer or further away will only be seen worse. That's very important. This is a very simple technique to practice, requires only a small sample of small print. Keep the conditions consistent as you are learning, (distance, size, ambient light) . Gradually move the fine print closer, and further away as you become more proficient and comfortable at seeing it clearly.

This is a post I can send students here to read, to learn from!

I am going to make a 'best of the iblindness truly natural members' list for students to read, improve their vision the natural way.

Thanks arocarty!

Because in other words Bates said that movement and change are two main principles of stability for both brain and vision.
The myopic brain thinks staring is the stability needed and that is why staring ruins the vision.

Went to St. Patrick's day parade today. Met a lady that wears Myopia glasses with bifocal for many years. Eye muscles so these; when I had her remove the glasses and try shifting part to part on my face;
her right eye moves slower than left just to un-converge from her hand at 5 inches to my face at 3 feet away. She says myopia so advanced she can only see clear without glasses about 5 inches from eyes.

Gave her a card with iblindness address. Hope she pops by.

Will be interesting observing how she improves.
