The Jake Origin Story: I grew up with glasses, 5.00 diopter high myopia, and yet today have 20/20 natural eyesight. No surgery, no glasses, I figured out how myopia actually works and how to reverse it (and no, not eye exercises!) The mainstream tells you it's impossible - but the whole concept that myopia is an illness, is complete unscientific nonsense (a 100 billion dollar a year profitable nonsense, though).

I never believed my eyesight could improve until I went on a beach holiday and my prescription dropped 1.5 in under a month without trying. I put it down to lots of sunshine, barely wearing my glasses and generally being more relaxed. There was a lot of 'intemediate' focus trying to find my way back to the right sunlounger after swimming! Conversely Lockdowns in winter increased my prescription. I'm looking forward to trying your course.
@G E T R E K T no I'm talking about my prescription as given to me by my optician. My prescription went down 1.5 points and was verified by my optician. I had an eye test a few months before my holiday and had to have another after as my glasses felt too strong. So I'll leave your assumptions and judgements with you.
@G E T R E K TI didn't claim to be an expert. I shared my experience which I interpreted through ("put down to") my observations and understanding at the time. I didn't say they were based on science or set in stone. I'm new to this. I also said how I was looking forward to the course which I obviously wouldn't even be considering if I didn't know I have more to learn. My comment above simply stated I had noticed some changes in my eyesight and this had changed a belief that change could happen at all. I didn't say I was cured. Thank you for sharing your "final findings" with me and helping me make up my mind. You've saved me money. I'm going to look elsewhere. In my limited interactions with "Endmyopians" I've noticed more than once how rudeness is barely hidden behind an attempt to educate. That's a very unpleasant quality in a community, especially when approaching evident newbies. Do know I won't be replying to you again and I would suggest not getting an affiliate link for yourself as you're a terrible brand ambassador.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. That's inspiring.
It happened to me.
When I worn my glasses things got small and without detail -- a sign of overprescrition, and lots of headaches, could not tolerate screen for too much time. But, of course, the good side effect I had lot of feeling of euphoria, happiness, dopamine realising after wearing 20/15 or even 20/10, shades, bold, contrast increasing and so on.
I once got stuck sitting on a rock for four hrs waiting for the tide to go out. There was nothing to do except gaze at the ocean and horizon. To my great astonishment that night i saw one moon, instead of a moon and shadowy quarter moon, my astigmatism entirely disappeared and didn't return for years.
He's back. He just can't stay away from the RUclipss and helping people. The helpless sounding comments from some people, who don't want to read and search for answers in Jake's content and website themselves, isn't enough to keep Captain Jake away.
Oops. 😇
And yes tips from my experience :
1. Using full full prescription indoors under poor lighting conditions for a small amonut of time does not hurt your progress
2. Always guage your progress by how clear you see with your normalised during the night time compared when you first reduced, the clearer it gets at night the closer you are to your next reduction.
3.take few munites weekly and pop on your full prescription during the day for a few munites and explore the distance, it reminds your visual cortex of the end goal and at the same time you remind yourself of the clear picture of what you are missing by been myopic. I call it "DE-BLURRING"
I agree with all of this
Can we practice active focus blinking while looking at the computer with a weaker prescription lens?
@@osu3167 Blink when its time to blink. Dont let ur eyes get dry from not blinking enough, AF does add more strain than casual vision even with a relaxed eye
This subject reminds me of a conversation with my brother 20yrs ago - we talked about how after our teens we quit looking at the road signs and things in detail. We generally look at things and we've seen them before so we don't notice the curves of the lettering and details etc. That's about the time many of us begin needing glasses coincidentally. Always wondered if it's related.
My primary takeaway being it is about the level of engagement, which I knew but great reminder. 😀
This is encouraging to me as someone who *may* have taken the whole "distance vision" thing almost too seriously... I found myself constantly struggling to find opportunities to look at mountains, birds, horizons, etc. and I got frustrated because it was basically impossible for me to find hobbies that required such a distance vision. I would find myself just staring at mountains pointlessly, which would only last a few minutes before I got bored because I have no hobbies that require staring at mountains for hours. So I would just end up feeling discouraged. I also used to feel "guilty" about intermediate distances, as if they weren't far away enough. Like they were too clear to be effective. I feel motivated again having this new perspective to troubleshoot with! Thanks Jake :)
What hobbies are there where you can look in the distance for long? I’m trying to get one for myself
@G E T R E K T thank you, I will definitely give that last one a try.
tnx jake, for supporting such a long journey of mine.!
Thank you for this! Being mentally engaged with your environment is key and you contrasted scenarios when someone is engaged or not. Thanks for spelling this out. Very Helpful!! :)
Few people talk about blood circulation, circadian rhythm, diet that causes chronic inflammation -- that influences circulation.
A lot of people won't improve their eyesight or win the Plateaus
from sleeping too late or waking up too late.
It may sound ridiculous, but small details can help immensely.
2 reasons for worse vision at the beach. Problem is we dont know the % of each that is the culprit. My quess is the closer screen is doing you in. Thanks for the video, I do intermediate AF alot, glad im not wasting time
I found that gaming on big screen on intermediate distance removes my spasm. cos you focused and involved into process, and brain feels like it in real life survival scenario.
This is a really useful piece of info. Thank you Jake.
When you follow carrefully and with commitment all the advices on your channel you will improve your vision with time.
I wonder if people who never had myopia have the same feeling than you.
I mean it's been 20 years that you are 20/20 and you are still need to work always in practising distance vision to keep that level of vision (after hours on screen or books etc..).
I guess people who have never worn glasses or had myopia have a more flexible ciliary muscle spasm...our is more fragile.
Good point 👍 Beach is total blur. there should be some blur challenge like in heavy traffic
My astigmatism completely went away for years after looking at the ocean for four hrs with nothing to do, waiting for the tide to go out. I have never worn glasses. Ive always wondered if it was because the ocean is always moving, and my eyes couldn't fixate on anything, and after four hrs the muscles just let go and relaxed.
I struggle with this too because i use my normalized during school and we do a lot of close-up work with bad lighting and when I go outside, I see way better than indoors and having too much closeup work in bad lighting is slowing down my progress and I try to release the ciliary spasm once I'm outside with better lighting. Do you Jake have any suggestions to help me reduce the amount of close-up work while at school??
Standing desks? Looking away as often as possible? Work near a window? Also muscle imbalances from the whole body can lead to tightness in the eyes, so make sure you have good posture, and desk work screws us up this way too.

Wow thats really interesting, your the first person I've heard talk about middle distance. I have excellent near vision and surprisingly pretty good way far distance, its the middle distance that is messed up. I have never worn glasses. I live in the woods and don't spend much time on screens, and ive noticed there's almost no activity i do using middle distance vision. My middle distance views are a sea of green forest, complex visual structures of leaves, sticks and vegetation that i seldom have a need to closely scrutinize. I wonder if it would be beneficial to spend some active focus time on mid distance vegetation?
I first found out about this method 4 years ago, and I have practiced it for almost a year, and it tremendously improved my vision, but then I stopped because I lost motivation, and I have been angry at myself ever since because I know that it works.
Forget the anger! You learned lots of things. Lots of people (me included) had and have plenty of setbacks. Just get back to good habits when you're ready.
I declare that I am back to the game. @@endmyopia
Yeah i for long realised that i try to actively focus on infinitely distant objects my eyes get tired fairly quickly overtime then when just going about my day in the city. Its similar to having prolonged closeup work. Needless to say it seems like the eyes quickly give up if the distance is too much if you have residual myopia i think. I use - 1.5 now. It clear but gets worse when night time comes. Very normal😁
I’m in my 20s and it seems like so many people in my generation and earlier wear correction in some form now. It may be anecdotal but it just seems like it’s less common to not have some form nearsightedness. It doesn’t help that glasses are in style either. In fact, I know quite a bit of people that started out wearing less than -1.0 all the time that now have much worse vision.
I have a conspiracy theory about it, it is well known that the neck in its proper posture regulates hormones as well as bringing nutrients and blood flow to the brain.
That's why many people correlate myopia with blood circulation problems.
With the use of smartphones, looking down, people are altering the natural shape of the neck. They are also increasing the use of visual accommodation by associating their own thoughts with the smartphone.
The conspiracy theory lies in the belief that governments know how to lower the spirits of human beings.
The next trend is the Metaverse, which can really reverse this scenario, biconvex lenses to relax accommodation, 360° reality, wide field of view, etc.
Yeah happened to me i had -0.25 but my mom told me to Wear my glasses all the Time and i did thinking that it would help my vision now i have 4.50
I have. Myopia fort and. My retina. is Sick and i suffer from Squint. Doctors still could not tell the real cause of squint. Any thing could help me please
Hi everyone. Im new here and i saw jake channel &site but i really confused. Where can i started where can i see method in site i get some quizz but nothing happened after. Plz someone. Tell me how can i start unfortunately my English is poor i cant explain well
plz suggest me

Stop using phone 🙃
stop masturbation
Do you have any experience of placing mirrors in a room to create an artificial distance?
Mirrors in a bedroom?
Give us this day our daily beard. And forgive us our diopters. Lead us not into eye tests but deliver us from the spasm. For thine is the back to 20/20, reduced dioptric power, and active focus . Give us the steeeps. Amen
😂👍🏻
Plz add caption sir
Heyyyy jake I am a depresses teenager please answer my query
When I waer my prescribed glasses I see a lot of lighted than it actually is when I wear my normalised glasses I see almost the same but a lot less lighted is it normal
Hey Jake, my daughter (14 year old) is suffering from -2.75 D . Optometrist said that she would not be able to improve her eyesight till the time she's in her adolescence. I want to enquire that is it possible for her to improve her eyesight with the help of active focus at this time.
yes, optometrist are just lier.
This process of going from lense wearing to 20/20 seems rather tedious. Is there not a simple way to overcome the aspect of going to optometrists and convincing them to get you differing prescriptions on an ongoing basis?
Buy them online it's cheaper
@@amazonprime5 where do you suggest?
@@FlowPhase1 I use Zenni they have 6$ frames and lenses are about 20$
@@amazonprime5 To get lenses I think you need a prescription first. How much is a prescription?
@@FlowPhase1 I got a prescription from an eye doctor which was free with health insurance then I entered my prescription on the site
My kid is diagnosed with myopia -6D I believe it's too much for her. We haven't started glasses yet. Should she wear glasses or we should try to reduce without glasses?
Step #1, figure out on your own what she actually sees, without corrective lenses. The "diagnosis" should be viewed with some possible skepticism.
I would agree if your going to the beach to be lazy IE walking on the beach, sun tanning, but when I go to the beach I like playing beach soccer, vollyball doing backflips, jogging.
Sir , my eye is - 9 both eyes diagnos yesterday by optometrist , still wearing -8.5(L) - 8(R) glasses . Should i start wearing -9 power glasses or reduce the power to -7 glass or continue wearing the present one ? Please Sir help me , I am 24 yrs , i am worried my power is not stabilizing
😭
Start by wearing Differentials when doing close up work (computer, phone, reading). Differentials are glasses with 1.5 less diopters than your regular glasses. This should help slow or stop your progression.
Does Active focus can cure Accomodative Lag?
Can I use my full prescription to notedown the texts on the black board??
Hi Jake
Hi Jake, I need your suggestion. My baby(14 months old) suffering eye problems. She was not able to find long distance objects/things. We met the doctor they said that baby facing eye sight(-10) approximately. Please suggest me is there any possibility to treatment her.
Just found myself doing this. Driving in the UK ext.
Can someone who have shortcut about the idea ..and steps ..
contact me please i have lot of works un busy. Plz understand me .
How do I get in touch with you about personal courses I went to your website and I didn't see how I could get in touch with you I have astigmatism negative 1.50 in both eyes and this just started a month ago, do you just help with myopia or do you also help with astigmatism
Is there any Iranian guy here. Some one. Get result and can help me in this one
Are there any peer reviewed papers showing that undercorrection or plus lenses causes significant axial reduction in animals or humans? So far the only studies I’ve found are on the scale of a few micrometers.
Micrometers is where it's at. And yes there are quite a few studies, animals and humans. You'll always be able to poke holes in any of that if you want to, but certainly exists. I've quoted more than a few on our site, and you can find them on Google Scholar as well.
Studies that were done on myopic children in Asia actually found that using undercorrection as a treatment actually worsens myopic correction. This is why it is not currently done, and other methods are employed, the most promising being low dose atropine in combination with peripheral hyperopic defocus spectacle or contact lenses, and also orthokeratology.
I have a question,can i do active focus indoors too?
I need some help. Plz. Which course should i buy. I really confused 🤔 how can i pay for that. Only i can pay with bitcoin. My diopter is negetive 5. For each eyes. I misunderstood course cost. What. 3 thousands dollor or something else
You can pay with BTC. Courses from $40, all listed on course page.
Jake!!! I have come across this method called Myopia is Mental, and noticed that stinging and tearing = Ciliary Muscle relaxing. But then I come back to this only to realize that this method advises against it. But Then again, Active focus and Marks ‘rocking’ method is practically the same thing. I was able to get the desired effect of his method right away as I have been trying to figure out what active focus is for a while now. Do you think I can combine his rocking method with your method of using normalized and differentials???
Myopia isn't mental. 😅 What may seem familiar with Mark is that he's borrowing from endmyopia and Bates. You can do so yourself and skip the "middleman".
@@endmyopia so you think it could be possible if I use part of his method as well as using the reduced prescriptions? (Differentials and normalized) and if so what should I reduce to for normalized because apparently my current prescription is slightly less than my eyesight.
-3.75 and -4
Just curious.
Also what do you mean by ‘middleman?’
Hello, just curious, is cumulative outdoor time sustainable? I find it difficult to spend 2 hours in one go outside everyday and thus I tend to split the 2 hours up unevenly throughout the day to a total of 2 hours with close up time and watching the television in between those outdoor time. Is it sustainable?
Give it a shot. Easy to quantify results with eye chart.
@Jake Steiner alright thanks. Also from what I understand in a video you made in the past, the 2-3 hours we spent outdoors daily has to be 100% distance vision and we can't use our phones in between the 2-3 hours? Not even for a few seconds to a few minutes?
Hi Jake, thank you for your guides. Have a question. Although you have a nice trained vision, your face is somehow showing me you're myopic (there's something common between almost all myopic faces) I believe there's something more to it, not only the eye condition itself, but maybe some spine or scull issues that cause the problem holding us back and that's why we have hard times even with all that eye training sistems. If relates, please give your thoughts on this
Interesting. Don't know anything to add to this. Lots of science on axial length that explains myopia fair well. Entirely possible that there are more correlations.
Plzz give msg or points to endmyopia plzz sir
It's in the description.
Do you take into account proximity to microwave radiation sources, e.g. wifi routers and cell phones? The eyes are particularly sensitive to it; and the radiation exposure now is higher than ever, in recorded history.
Sunlight refracted off the ocean (UV radiation) may also be a factor....?
Manage what's reasonably feasible, for the rest consider mental well-being over trying to assess every possible threat. IMHO only of course. Avoiding processed foods, chemical shower products, healthy sleep patterns, minimizing mindless screen consumption ... plenty of low hanging fruit.
I have a tool to measure RF, magnetic fields, and electric fields. The good news about RF is the energy drops off pretty fast to safe levels with a few feet of distance. Just try to put your router and microwave further away from you as much as possible. That's usually not hard to do as long as you don't live in a very small space. RF has been shown to disrupt biology (like calcium channels), however sustained unsafe exposure can mostly be avoided with a conscious layout. The magnetic field emitted by power lines though can be more difficult to avoid depending on where you live. I guess that one can't be helped.
@@offensivearch You are correct. The primary challenge is when in an environment that is not under ones' control, e.g. school/cafe with wifi router, metro crammed with cell phone users, a neighborhood with unsafe cell tower placement, etc. The predicament is analogous to second hand smoke, except most people wouldn't know they were being exposed to wireless, microwave radiation without visual cues and/or the use of a meter!
@@endmyopia Hi Jake! Thank you for your what you do! Those are good suggestions indeed.
It was my aim to point out that your vision variations could have other root causes. For example, most people are aware of red eye cause by prolonged UV exposure (photokeratitis). On the other hand, many do not realize the impact of their exposure to microwave sources, e.g. wifi router at an internet cafe, cell phone used as an hotspot, etc. The eyes (and testes) are particularly sensitive to exposure to electromagnetic radiation, at much lower levels than are widely recognized. This is my understanding and experience. Hope that blesses you brother!
please give subtitles in English please
Have you tried turning on the auto-generated captions in English that already exist?
Why did you delete your floater video?
I didn't delete any videos. I did move quite a few to our Vimeo channel though.
@@endmyopia =o oh
Ofcourse you all know all of these stories are anecdotal. None are verified by medically licensed professional. None are peer reviewed. And all these self help free videos are ultimately about making money. Oh, you weren’t told that.
I have never seen any, & there are many; ever submit themselves to unbiased third party testing to see if what is purported is true.
Having said all that & it needs to be said. I support research into naturally improving one’s self.
I was listening to an eye guru who touts herself as the only vision guru who is university trained. Nice lady- do your palming, sunning etc. She has 100’s of followers, but of course she has her special “Course” I think it’s $499 or so.
So my point is: You may think you are improving, but unless it’s verified by professionals who have up to 20 types of vision equipment it isn’t proven. You may think you can run 100 yard dash in 10 seconds, but until you get on the track & have a third party measure your time it’s not credible. May turn out your really at 12 seconds. I passed the DMV test w) no glasses. Doesn’t mean my vision isn’t still screwed up. I would need to go to an eye doctor to let him/her test to see what his machines say, Until I can see perfectly clear near & far, good light bad light-can make a statement my vision is where it should be. Much like baldness. Until someone grows back theirhair & it’s verified by an unbiased medical professional I wouldn’t put much faith in what people are saying. People lie & they lie to make money. So my only point is PROVE IT!
@@jakebernal492 Skepticism. 100% healthy and appropriate. Also over the past decades we've collected plenty of "professional" approvals. Including removed lens requirements from DMV and optometrist confirmations. endmyopia.org/category/optometrist-confirmed/
Hi. If you claim this method is scientific you should be able to demonstrate its effectiveness by making a case study. For example if 100 people with blurry eyes use this method how many of them will have a better vision and how long does it take for them to get there.
Are you myopic?
there are tons, he is doing it the other way around, using the case studies and making something practical for his audience.
There are hundreds of peer reviewed scientific studies in ophthalmology journals quoting that glasses they sell you, cause more myopia. And yet exactly zero optometrists will tell you about this. I've got limited faith that me spending upwards of 100k USD to 'prove' my method will have any more profound impact. Otherwise .. sure. :/
@G E T R E K T there are plenty of medical research studies that follow cohorts over a period of years, including myopia control studies. Myopia control is one of the hottest topics in optics right now, it shouldn't be that hard to source funding for research if you have a good idea...
I have noticed the same issue when driving to the city after time out in nature, looking into the distance, able to see tree details and tiny animals. Then... Ugh, why can't I see the small letters on highway signs down the road? Thanks for the "clarification"! 🫣
