“Discover How You Can See Better: Using Natural Eye Exercises: Without The Help Of Glasses, Contacts Or Risky Surgery”

If you want to improve your eyesight, you need these facts.

Glasses and contacts can weaken your eyes! – They cause you to use your eyes in the wrong way and they weaken your eyes, instead of helping your eyes.  You see better, but not because your eyes are getting  better~

Corrective surgery can be risky, very expensive, and there is no guarantee.  What can you lose with “Natural Vision Improvement?… Not even a lot of money

Many professionals know little or nothing about natural preventative measures. (They are not really interested;  as MOST doctors are not very interested in natural remedies.  That is not their chosen field)

Try for eye exercises. This could improve your vision Naturally!

It is no surprise that more and more people are seeking alternative ways to improve their vision. We’re eating organic, buying green (heck, even Wal-Mart is jumping on the environmental wagon), and reclaiming the herbal remedies our great-grandparents used, so natural vision improvement is right on the money.

Contact Costs: Financial

Or should we say, right for your money. It’s a safe bet that, even had the technology been around in our ancestors’ time, Great-Grandma couldn’t have afforded contact lenses.  Add the cost of fitting the lenses, plus contact solution and cases, plus follow-up care, and, well, Grandma could literally have bought her farm.

Contact Costs: Physical

Figuratively speaking, while no one is known to have “bought the farm” from wearing contacts, a few recalls throughout the years have highlighted the lenses’ health risks.  Contact wearers are wondering what solution is safe to use. One  infection is a canthamoeba keratitis, caused by a waterborne parasite.

Try for eye exercises. This could improve your vision Naturally!

In 2006, Bausch & Lomb pulled its ReNu with MoistureLoc off the shelves and discontinued the solution worldwide. O’Steen & Harrison, the firm representing the people who developed fungal eye infections as a result of using ReNu, says, “The latest report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provided that the agency is investigating 164 reports of fusarium keratitis infections. … Fusarium keratitis infections can scar the cornea and potentially blind the person. Early symptoms of this eye infection include blurry vision, pain or redness, excessive discharge, and increased sensitivity to light.”

Scary, but also ironic—the very method you’re using to improve your vision could instead make you blind.

But wait, as they say, that’s not all: giant papillary conjunctivitis (caused by an adverse reaction to the contact lens itself in the eye), corneal warpage (where the contacts literally change the curvature of the cornea), and even corneal ulceration may also afflict the contact lens wearer. EyeMDLink.com calls corneal ulceration “one of the most dreaded complications of contact lens wear.” This bacterial infection of the cornea can cause permanent visual loss, depending on what part of the cornea is affected.

Contact Costs: Mental

All of this is not to mention the little things that can make life uncomfortable for contact lens wearers on a daily basis. The dryness and itching. The protein deposits. Makeup on or under the lens. Having to carry both solution and lens case—not to mention glasses—as a backup. Knowing that if you clean your lenses improperly or wear them inappropriately, you could potentially develop a debilitating eye infection. And the worst: that panicky feeling you get when your lens slips into the back of your eye and you feel like you might never get it out again. (That did happen to me!)

Come on in, the Water’s Fine: Seven Tips for Healthy Swimming This Summer

There’s nothing more refreshing than a dip in a pool or a lake on a hot summer day. But before you dive in, remember that contaminated water from swimming pools, lakes, rivers or oceans can cause illnesses, including serious eye infections.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the number of outbreaks of recreational water illnesses has increased over the past decade. So what can you do to stay in the swim of things? Here are seven tips to keep you healthy in the water this summer.

1. Observe swimming pool conditions.

Just because a pool has chlorinated water does not mean it is free of germs. Ask yourself the following: Is the water in the pool cloudy? Are there leaves or other debris in the water? Is the water being properly filtered?

Swimming pool water should look clean, clear and blue—you should be able to clearly see the painted stripes on the pool floor. Bacteria can develop when foreign substances such as leaves, insects or dirt enter the pool. Also look for drainage grills at the top of pool walls; water should be constantly lapping over the grills to be filtered.

2. Take the quiz.

Question: A healthy swimming pool should smell strongly of chlorine.

a) True
b) False

Answer: You might be surprised to know the answer is b) False.

Strong chemical odors are caused by the presence of chloramines, which are formed when chlorine combines with perspiration, urine, saliva, feces, body oils and other wastes introduced into pools by swimmers. A strong chemical smell actually indicates an unhealthy pool. A high level of chloramines is a common cause of eye and skin irritation.

3. Ask to see pool maintenance records.

Another important factor for maintaining a healthy swimming pool is the pH of the water. If the pH is not within a certain range, swimmers will start to feel irritation of their eyes and skin. Also, a balance should be kept between chlorine and pH levels, because the germ-killing power of chlorine varies with pH (as contaminants enter the pool, pH goes up and chlorine’s ability to kill germs goes down). Many states require public pools to be tested hourly.

4. Keep wading pools clean.

Shallow, warm wading pools—used by little ones who are not reliably toilet trained—are an ideal incubator for germs. Because they are not usually chlorinated, home wading pools should be emptied straight after use and scrubbed clean. Public wading pools might best be avoided.

5. Choose beaches carefully.

Sometimes a day at the beach is no picnic. Sewage or industrial waste, agricultural and urban runoff (such as fertilizers and pesticides), stormwater runoff, animal feces and pollution from boaters are just some of the things that can contaminate rivers, lakes and streams.

To reduce the likelihood of getting sick from swimming at the beach, find out if the beach you want to go to is monitored regularly and posted for closures or swimming advisories. You are less likely to be exposed to polluted water at these beaches.

In areas that are not monitored regularly, choose swimming sites in less developed areas with good water circulation. Avoid swimming at beaches where you can see discharge pipes or at urban beaches after a heavy rainfall.

6. Wear goggles.

Wearing goggles is a necessity for maintaining clear vision and excellent eye health in the water. Over time, chlorine and other pool chemicals can actually begin to break down the tissue of the eye, so it’s important that you wear goggles each time you plan on opening your eyes in the water. When buying goggles, first check the fit. Goggles should stay on your eyes for more than a second when put on your face without using the straps; if they don’t, they are not the right fit for you. Goggles should also feel comfortable once you’ve got them on. The centerpiece over the nose should sit well, without cutting into your skin.

7. Beware of pinkeye.

The most common type of eye infection resulting from swimming in contaminated water is conjunctivitis, or “pinkeye.” Pinkeye is extremely contagious and is spread by person-to-person contact or contact with infected materials, such as towels. Avoid sharing towels or goggles with others. Taking a shower to rinse your skin, hair and eyes is important after each swim. If you have a discharge from your eyes or light sensitivity, see a doctor immediately. Children, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems are most likely to develop illnesses or infections after swimming in polluted water.

During any activity take off your glasses from time to time and leave them off as long as you can do so comfortably…but, only do this if it is safe and comfortable!

Your vision does NOT stay the same.  It can change drastically and rapidly.  This means you may have moments of seeing perfectly without your glasses…this will prove to you that it IS possible to see well again.

“Can I exercise my eyes“  Yes, You CAN!

Go to the movies?  I you do, make sure that you glide your eyes all around the screen.  Don’t try to take in the whole scene at one time.

Try to look at one part of the screen, and the area right around that part.

If you go frequently to the movies, use it as a learning aid.  If you are nearsighted, try to sit as close to the front where you can see without your glasses. And then, keep moving back a little at a time and see how far back you can go to see without glasses…and then, do the eye exercises and see if you can keep moving further back.

If you are farsighted, do the same thing in reverse.  Again, do the eye exercises and see if you can continuously improve this.

Natural Vision Improvement and Correction Is Possible In Most Cases!

It’s a long weekend in Canada, and along with this long weekend comes fireworks (my poor black lab hates the noise).

Prevent Blindness America warns that there is no safe way for nonprofessionals to use fireworks. It is only safe to enjoy the splendor and excitement of fireworks at a professional display.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, fireworks were involved in an estimated 9,200 injuries treated in U.S. hospital emergency rooms in 2006.

An estimated 6,400 injuries were treated in hospital emergency rooms during the one month period surrounding the Fourth of July.

* Eyes were the second most commonly injured part of the body, with an estimated 1,500 fireworks-related eye injuries treated in the same one-month period of 2006.

* Firecrackers accounted for 1,300 injuries, sparklers, 1,000 and roman candles, 700.

* Males suffered three times more injuries than females.

* 2,300 of the injuries were to children under age 15.

That Has Huge Success Improving Vision

Avoid reading when you are tired or ill.  If you have to read then you should do so for short periods of time, with lots of rest for your eyes in between.

If you are watching television, do NOT turn off all the other lights, but rather, keep a soft glow of light in the room.  And as always, teach your eyes not to stare, to get fixated on one spot,  but rather start to roam your eyes over the screen. And don’t forget to blink frequently!

While natural vision improvement isn’t nearly as profitable as surgery or corrective lenses, you, the consumer, can save hundreds or perhaps thousands of dollars by safely and naturally rebuilding your vision through the use of proven eye exercises.

By The Father Of Natural Vision Improvement, Dr Bates

So, Do Eye Exercises Really Work?  Yes, according to Dr Bates

One of the most efficacious methods of relieving eyestrain, and hence of improving the sight, is palming. By this is meant the covering of the closed eyes with the palms of the hands in such a way as to exclude all the light, while avoiding pressure upon the eyeballs. In this way most patients are able to secure some degree of relaxation in a few minutes, and when they open their eyes find their vision temporarily improved.

When,relaxation is complete the patient sees, when palming, a~flack so deep that it is impossible to remember or imagin~’ anything blacker, and such relaxation is always followed by a complete and permanent cure of all errors of refraction (nearsight, farsight, astigmatism’ and even old sight), as well as by the relief or cure of many other abnormal conditions. In rare cases patients become able to see a perfect black very quickly, even in five, ten or fifteen minutes; but usually this cannot be done without considerable practice, and some never become able to do it until they have been cured by other means. When the patient becomes able after a few trials to see an approximate black, it is worth while to continue with the method; otherwise something else should be tried.

Most patients are helped by the memory of some color, preferably black, and as it is impossible to remember an unchanging object’ for more than a few seconds, they usually find it necessary to shift consciously from one mental picture to another, or from one part of such a picture to another. In some cases, however, the shifting may be done unconsciously, and the black object may appear to be remembered all alike continuously.

A Sentence From The Writings of the Father Of Eye Exercises: Doctor Bates:

The normal eye usually sees the background of a letter whiter than it really is. In looking at the letters on the Snellen test card it sees white streaks at the margins of the letters, and in reading fine print it sees between the lines and the letters, and in the openings of the letters, a white more intense than the reality.

Persons who cannot read fine print may see this illusion, but less clearly. The more clearly it is seen, the better the vision; and if it can be imagined consciously—it is imagined unconsciously when the sight is normal—the vision improves. If the lines of fine type are covered, the streaks between them disappear. When the letters are regarded through a magnifying glass by the eye with normal sight, the illusion is not destroyed, but the intensity of the white and black are lessened.

With imperfect sight it may be increased to some extent by this means, but will remain less intense than the white and black seen by the normal eye. The facts demonstrate that perfect sight cannot be obtained with glasses.

Even in the snow and winter the sun can harm your eyes.  Your eyes and the sun.

Due to many stresses put upon the visual system, the use of glasses and contacts, and the natural aging process, your eyes can become weak and distorted, causing blurred vision. The Rebuild Your Vision Program is designed to strengthen your eyes just as you would any other weak part of your body, improving your vision and helping you to see clearly –naturally

How accurate are visual measurements? According To Bates?

Not very. Vision changes continuously and the autorefraction and subject refraction tests performed by optometrists and opthalmologists give only a “snapshot” of your current accuity.

Autorefraction gives a sort of “at rest” measurement and subjective refraction measures your ability (some people say “under pressure to perform”) to discern what the eyes present to yourmind. A score of 20/20 does not include your acuity at the near point.

Many other measurements are not covered by a standard optometry test.

Eye-movement skills, the ability to quickly focus from one object to another.

Eye-teaming skills, converging and diverging, the ability to turn the eyes inward and outward in a coherent way.

Eye focusing skills, the ability to make rapid and accurate shifts in visual inspection with instantaneius clarity and at any distance. Also the ability to maintain focus on a an object. Focusing is about expanding the point of vision not about forcing or trying harder.

Dynamic visual acuity, the ability the see sharply while an object or person is in motion.

Peripheral vision, the ability to use side horiztonal and vetical vision. Used to position yourself in space and time. Improvements result in better balance and movement.

Binocular fusion, the ability to coordinate the eyes precisely so the brain can “fuse” the input. Dyslexia is a catch all term to label crossed and left/right reversal dificulties. It is about a lack of  co-ordination between the left and right hemispheres of the brain and body. Fusion creates depth perception.

Eye-hand co-ordination. Combining the visual and motor systems, if the eye movements are jerky then the hand movements will be too. Effects sprots performance and even handwriting.

Visual form perception. Becoming aware of the shapes features of sensory information. The ability to organize images on the printed page into letters and/or words.

Visualization and Visual memory. How you make and store and recall visual images and imformation. Effects you ability to learn.
