Dr. W. H. Bates started his career as an orthodox ophthalmologist following the old rules of the practice; prescribing eyeglasses... During his life, working with different patients, eye conditions; he realized that unclear close, distant vision, astigmatism, other conditions often cured itself, reversed back to clear vision when his patients stopped wearing eyeglasses and relaxed. He noticed that wearing glasses 'tensed' the eyes, eye muscles, lowered the vision and resulted in stronger and stronger eyeglass prescriptions. He began his own studies on the eye and its function. This led him to discover that many of the old ophthalmology, optometry 'supposed facts' about the eye, lens and its function and cause of unclear vision... are incorrect. Dr. Bates began teaching his patients to stop wearing their glasses. He taught them natural methods, including relaxation, correct use of the eyes/vision (shifting...) to produce clear vision. Dr. Bates cured his eyesight, close vision, presbyopia. Distant vision also clear. He wrote an article in his book, magazine describing how he did it with Memory, Imagination, Relaxation. He controlled, changed the focus of light rays in his eyes with his mind. Dr. Bates performed experiments on the eyes of animals, and observed the function of animal, patient's eyes under different conditions. He used the retinoscope to see the refraction of light rays in the eye under various conditions. He proved that the refraction, clarity of vision changes often. And when the eyes are left alone, eyeglasses avoided; the refraction, clarity returns to normal, clear vision. He proved that the state of the mind, thoughts, emotions, body change the refraction of the eye, clarity of vision. Example; when the mind, body is relaxed, positive, happy thoughts, emotions; the refraction is normal, vision is clear. When the mind, body is under stress, strain; the refraction is abnormal, vision is unclear. Dr. Bates discovered that the main cause of unclear vision and other eye problems is; Wearing Eyeglasses, Mental Strain, Mental/Visual Effort to See, Poor Vision Habits-incorrect use of the eyes/vision; squinting, staring, not shifting-lack of normal, relaxed eye movements, lack of central-fixation, poor memory and imagination... Perfect Sight occurs with Perfect Relaxation (deep or active/dynamic relaxation). Relaxation occurs first, then the eyesight becomes clear. Practicing normal, relaxed eye/vision function produces relaxation of the mind, eyes and perfect clarity. Dr. Bates' experiments on the outer eye muscles proved that tension in these muscles (mainly caused by eyeglasses, strain in the mind, incorrect vision habits) disrupts their function, the eyes' movement, accommodation/convergence, un-accommodation/divergence, causes pressure, tension, pulling on/in the eye, alters the eyes' shape, (and lens, retina...), impairs focus of light rays in the eye, on the retina and the clarity of vision. Blood, oxygen, fluid, tear circulation, production, nerve function in the eyes is impaired. Relax the mind, return normal eye movement (shifting, fixations); the eyes return to normal shape, the eye muscles relax and vision is clear. Read more

  • I have not practiced reading this book because it's such small print. I have now used the book
I know that I need to learn how to read this small print so in time, I may accomplish this. For right now, I need to do a lot of studying to succeed at this . A warning: The print in the book is so tiny and blurry, I can hardly read it. But after relaxing and not using my eyeglasses, I'm beginning to be able to read it but it's still blurry. However, it less blurry than when I started. So after I accomplish reading this clearly, I will enter another review. This is an add on review. I've had the book for a few months and when I first opened the book, the print was too tiny for me to see. After exercising my eyes as it suggested in other books and then returning to read the tiny print, I can now see the tiny print and I can read it. I am amazed. Following Dr Bates method does work for me and I'm so amazed that I can actually see the fine print. I had to learn some of the methods on youtube and then after doing that, I can now read the book and learn from it as well. There are many tips in getting your eyesight back. Wearing eyeglasses does not help your vision. So I took off my eyeglasses and only use it when I have to read something I can't see. Dry eyes are better, vision is clearing. It's 4 stars because I had to learn some of the exercises before I was able to read the book. This is my addition to my 1st review. I have and am reading the book. When I first opened the book to read it, I closed it since the print was so tiny. I have now and ma reading this tiny print by practicing the exercises in the book. Can't believe that I can now read the tiny words. it works!!!! You have to practice and keep doing the exercises. When you stop doing the exercises, you won't be able to read the small print. It's amazing and it works. I did change my stars from 4 to 5. ... show more

  • If you cannot read, then read
There are several methods these days on how to improve eyesight. All of them work. But also, all of them derive from the original work of Dr. Bates. These texts are original. Read them all, if you want to touch base with the source.

  • OUTSTANDING
I suffered from sudden onset double vision. Went to several eye doctors and got the same information and suggested treatment with an estimated $6,500++ cost. Personal research steered me to the Bates methodology. Four days after starting the outlined method there was a noticeable difference. Now, after three weeks. the double vision is gone. I am still doing the exercises every morning. It worked for me. THANK YOU ... show more

  • 100 year old language constructs abound
There are some excellent ideas to be found in this book. But since Dr Bates is writing about 100 years ago his turn of the phrase is not easy at first blush. I had to read over and over and track down his words constantly to understand just exactly what he was trying to say. And he is not too good at defining some of the terms used. Also many of his examples seem to be miraculous and promotional in scope. I finally quit reading these since they are not really a help. Also several subjects are readily a repeat of ideas already presented as though trying to come up with enough to fill out a book. He could have said more by saying less..... ... show more

  • If you wear glasses get this!
Very informative and interesting, highly recommended. I have only been doing the exercises for a couple of weeks and about 20 mins each day, but am noticing a positive difference in my vision.
