I don't see how it's based on non-science (nonsense) when many people can attest (including myself) that it clears my eyesight to a degree and has improved others to varying degrees, if it's testable repeatable and observable when concurrent with the same, similar or even different situations (light, dark, distance etc) then it's Science, even if it's only proof to yourself... It's up to the person to put it into practice to prove it to themselves, not to head somebody who has never tried and says it's nonsense because a bunch of other people said not to try it because there is no evidence, make the evidence for yourself, try it yourself before coming to a conclusion based on ignorance! Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance and goes against the basic scientific principles! Taking someone else's word for it and not investigating for yourself is religion! Note: This is not targeted at you, only the ones who come to conclusions based on other people's word and their word alone.
An IMPORTANT thing ABOUT PALMING which I didn’t see in this video : Do NOT PUT PRESSURE ON THE EYE BALL while doing palming!! It should be gentle as pressure on the eye ball can harm it. The correct way to do palming is not with flat hands. This is how it should be done: 1. RUB BOTH HANDS TOGETHER to generate heat - The warmth of your hands relaxes the six muscles around each eye and attracts more energy and blood flow. 2. CUP THE PALM OF YOUR HANDS and GENTLY PLACE THEM onto the eyes.( overlapping them to optimise light blocking. During palming we should aim also at blocking as much light as possible ) NO PRESSURE at all should be applied- and this is important to know. There is also the length of TIME recommended to do palming for different eye conditions. While for most vision problems the average is 10-12 min a day, for myopia it is 20 min ( can b 2x10) ; dry eyes 40 min a day ( can also slip this time) and cataract and optical nerve it’s prescribed 60 min a day ( 3x 20). People with GLAUCOMA should do palming NO LONGER than 18 min a day (3x6 min WITH 5 min INTERVALS)
Palming is my #1. Sunning #2. Fasting #3. #4 (more tedious/laborious) putting a sticker on a window & looking at it - then the distance, repeatedly. I’ve religiously walked for hours every day (while I was unemployed) looking at the distance; relaxing af, & also sketching the outlines, and it was not effective AT ALL as the above practices. A 20 minute palming session improves my vision 25 to 50%. I lay down and use a big elastic band to enwrap my elbows around my neck. Now I’ve incorporated massaging my eye sockets as I palm. Remember: The eyes are not an untouchable/non-massagable part of the body. You can touch and massage any part of your body.
@@hyeluvz it’s like getting enough sleep or managing weight, we don’t always maintain our ideal target. When I do do them yes, I get much progress - it’s startling, I have been reading about it for years, but like meditation or gym or running, I need more discipline to do it regularly. It’s the only natural way: Palm, sun, fast, keep work/living areas bright & push screens back. Only thing is to do it. 😊
@@hyeluvz also plus lenses for near work. researchers put minus lenses on chickens for a while & guess what happened? their eyes accommodated & elongated… So the reverse is also true. The eyes are an accommodating machine. That can get atrophied & or spasmodic over years of misuse. Nothing wrong there just cause & effect. Don’t sleep for a few days & life becomes unbearable lol. We have to use ourselves smarter. Btw, the therapy is like tight rope walking. Can you? Yes. But will you or have the motivation to incorporate tightrope walking everyday, at least till you master it? We all have time, but we just don’t use time correctly, we can watch hours of shorts, or look at a Ted-talk or we can just palm and listen. It feels like you have an extra job…but we have to invest in ourselves, what else are we gonna do?:)
Palming is the # 1 most effective tool, at least for me. Hands have healing power/chi. Your hands can mold, massage, heal, reduce pain. Hit your elbow & what do you? Rub and hold it with your palm! Hands heal. Distance viewing is of course necessary as well, but slower, more tedious & a bit frustrating, in my experience. So, Lie down. Use a rubber exercise band or a waist/back support velcro belt to support your palming: put elbows inside & stretch the other end over your head or back of neck. Rub your hands together for a bit. Palm. Overlapped hands or symmetrical. Do at least 6 minutes. Nap if you want in this position. Leave hands on eyes. Massage a bit now & then. You can use any positive affirmation IF you wish: "my eyes are perfect, I see beyond 20/20, my hands heal me, I am healed now" etc. The fastest most healing way that works for me (when I do do it;). I HAVE WALKED A BIKE PATH FOR HOURS EVERYDAY SKETCHING/CENTRALIZING THE DISTANCE TO VERY SLOW & FLEETING CLARITY... Just palm. It's more Eastern/energetic. Experiment/test it. Don't take anyone's word for it folks. Best of health!!!:) Other helpful info: 1. Quit nicotine (vasoconstrictor) is a must! 2. Run (overall better circulation) 3. Fast (frees up energy) 4. Cayenne eye wash (Dr. Christopher helped heal many eyes issues, even cataracts by this method) 5. Sunbathe (at least your face/eyes) 6. Eat more Omega 3's (wild salmon) 7. Use GLA supplement (black currant seed oil) if you have dry eyes. Helps produce moisture/lubrication.
Great video! I need to do all of this. Palming is something that has been being done in yoga for thousands of years. Good point that all these exercises were made at a time when our eye challenges were very different. Thank you, I’m seeking the link below to target issues I have more directly 🙏🏼
Most Bates Method teachers on and off RUclips that I have found suggest the Bates Method eye exercises (solarization, palming, swinging, etc.) along with other practices like yogic eye movement, taking breaks, getting outside, and focusing on distant objects. So the habits that you are teaching are great (like the one's you shared in your 5 habits/tips for better eyesight) but a lot of your videos seem to say "even though bates was on to something, his practices dont work anymore" when there are a ton of people who testify that it works. Because this is a relatively long term pursuit, using bates' exercises as well as implementing the habits you suggest probably yield the highest succcess rate, even though it may take more commitment.
Dr. Bates was a genius. Everything currently taught about improving natural eyesight was discovered by Dr. Bates and many of the "new" teachers just re-package what he taught. Active focus was taught by Bates but he used different terminology. There are several ways to relax the eyes, palming being one of them. The trick is finding which ones work best for you. Thankfully there are wonderful Bates teachers online who can help people improve their vision fairly quickly.
after getting -4.25 myopia i both my eyes at ony 15 years of age , i m finally ready to sacrifise anything in order to improve my eyesight , will tell everyone about my success
Many thanks, I've been looking for "eyesight exercises" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Patlarny Quit Glasses Principle - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my neighbour got excellent success with it.
This was great, thanks, I've been looking for "how improve your eyesight" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Patlarny Quit Glasses Principle - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my buddy got amazing results with it.
Just wonderful, I been tryin to find out about "how can i fix my eyesight naturally" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Patlarny Quit Glasses Principle - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my work buddy got amazing success with it.
There are a few factors in treating poor sight naturally. One plan I discovered which succeeds in merging these is the Great Gazer Fix (google it if you're interested) without a doubt the most incredible resource that I've seen. Check out all the interesting info .
No. It helps because it relaxes the eye due to lack of stimulus. Also there's something about blackness and nervous systems relaxation correlation. :) It's pretty interesting.
Hi Jake, this is a very interesting video on a side of palming that I wasn't aware of. I used to wear glasses from age 12 to 42, getting stronger ones every couple of years, and I was able to heal my eyes naturally and achieve 20/20. While I have tried nearly 80 different exercises from 14 books, I can tell you that ones that gave me the largest amount of lasting improvement were the exercises done with closed eyes. One of them was palming. Of course, as my vision was approaching 20/20, I also added some exercises that include looking into the distance, and counting objects in the distance, like branches, and eventually leaves. It's interesting that there are so many different exercises, and not all of them work equally well for every individual. Also, I think it's very important who is your teacher, as the "fine print" you would learn from her/him is probably more important than just the basic description of the exercise. Thank you very much for trying to help the world see better !!!
Amelia Silfverland , my left eye was -3.50 and right eye was -7.00. These are not regular myopia numbers. I had amblyopia and pure astigmatism. So my prescription had these value and axis or angle for each lens. High astigmatism was giving me blurred vision both near and far. When I started to do exercises, both near and far became sharper at the same time. I wish you best of luck Amelia!!!
@@igordjordjevic4264 sir i have astigmatism of .5D ..can i correct it in 1-2 months with correct diet and exercise and nutrition.. hoping for a quick reply...😁
Hello “I dont know what i am doing “. Yes, I am certain you will succeed in healing your eyes and getting rid of your astigmatism. For fastest progress, I suggest: Palming, Sunning and Yogic Eye Movements. Besides Jake’s videos, for Sunning and Plaming I suggest videos by Dr Meir Schneider and for Yogic Movements, check out Nathan Oxenfeld. Be well and see well!
Uses the Bates method many years ago. When I did, I gain about 30% in vision. I also got the proof from tests, before and after from an optometrist test.
Great video. I have astigmatism, myopia (-0.5 and -0.75) and floaters. I have a prescription for glasses that I wear while watching movies or driving. But also, I work more than 8 hours a day in front of a screen, so I wear yellow glasses (for blue light, without any diopter), too. Then, I decided to try the Bates method. I stopped wearing any glasses. I have been doing palming, watching the sun, focusing on distances, and looking from the most left to the most right and from the top to the bottom for 10 days, and I feel my eyes slightly better. But without wearing the yellow glasses during screen time, I feel my eyes are exhausted at the end of the day. Is it normal? Should I wear them in front of the screen?
Whatever the reason you are doing palming try to BLOCK LIGHT during this practise. It’s the darkness that relaxes the ciliary muscles, retina and optic nerves.
Can u make the video short and accurate ???? Im genuinely searching for ways to get rid of eye impairemnt. But its reallyyy tough to get the info i m looking for it.
I read some Bates book over 20 years ago and liked some of the ideas. Palming for an hour once a day didn't do anything for me though. But I talked about the ideas in the book to a friend who at that time didn't need glasses. He was an avid gamer though (not a bookworm like me) and he eventually did need glasses. He then used the ideas I talked about to him to improve his vision and had it verified by an optometrist. It seems Bates's ideas work better if you catch it early. I was jealous. I'm hoping reduced lenses and active focus will help me reduce my dependency on glasses too. I've got a lot longer way to go though.
@@deepikaingle4753 that was over 20 years ago. Probably all of the ones in the book though including palming. He may have gone and done some research himself too.
@@deepikaingle4753 I remember visiting him and he had his computer monitor way back on his desk. Not to the extreme where some people get a really good HD TV and look at that across the room but a few feet or so. I thought it looked uncomfortable but he could see just fine.
@@paulwalther5237 ohk.. jake says that we have locked our muscle watching screen very closely.. and what your frnd did was unlocking it by shifting gadgets or screen far at some extent..
How long did it take you to see a big improvement in your vision? What habits/exersices where you doing specifically ( apart from not wearing glasses to read )
Just to clairfy for beginners and new readers - 1) bates method - bullshit 2) pinhole glasses - bullshit 3) eye exercises - bullshit 4) cure eyesight pills - bullshit 5) learning and practicing the correct *eye habits* over 2 years - an improvement in myopia.
Awesome video. I had the same question about using palming alone. Thanks very much for clarifying. I plan on using palming to relax my eye muscles before sightseeing.
I heard our style of education causes eye sight problems from reading off of flat surfaces....I know it sounds crazy but they did studies and found that humans without a formal education don't have eye problems. Assuming that they have a good diet, eating regularly. Yet those in areas with access to modern technology/education have high rates of eye disorders
Never did I give eyesight awareness any tought. Never imagined how importsnt it was. Thank you for bringing attention to this area that is essential to our life. Will definitely start checking out the science of vision.
Subscribed. Check. I loved the joke in the end too. Haha. I've trained myself back into my -2.25 glasses/lenses several times over the years. Now I'm supermotivatd to finally get rid of them.I'm just more annoyed than ever, needing "devices" to go out, do sports and allof that. Nice having found that channel.
@@RahulSah-f8eHi, good to ask. Actually, I got out of my -2.25 glasses, starting out with them being too weak. So, I think I started between -2.75 and -2.5. I switched to -1.5, but those are still a little weak after a year. I am back to doing palming also, because without it, I plateaued for months. I don't think that the advice in the video is wrong. I suspect its different for different situations. Or, not everyone can do palming correctly, where the eye muscles really let go. Anyway, I will go on and on with the exercises, but its probably not practical for normal people, who won't and can't hours and hours into this each week for years.
Bates said to read small print which is similar to practicing long distance focusing. Also Bates Shifting which is similar to long distance looking but using movement to bring relaxation into the eyes. Either way - it´s ALL based of Bates - I DON´T WANT LASERS, GLASES OR MODERN DOCTORS . PETER GRUNWALD HAS SOME NICE IDEAS TOO, which came from F.M Alexander.
Small print as substitute doesn't work in practice. Reality is, there is no substitute for distance vision, to fix distance vision. (source: 20 years & tens of thousands of participants of EM)
@RaylaHarris789 Hi Rayla. If you live in the US or Canada, I suggest attending a 3-day vision retreat in San Francisco. It's organized by SFSH - School for Self-Healing, and it's a few times per year. A lot of vision exercises and games will be done outside on the beach. Enjoy and best of luck to you, on your vision improvement journey! 2 months ago
Need some help. Here’s my eye results: OD: -2.5, Cylinder: -1.25 OS: -2, Cylinder: -1.75 Should I reduce my prescription to this and for a single distance for computer use? OD: -2.25, Cylinder: -1.00 OS: -1.75, Cylinder: -1.5 What should I do with my prescription glasses? I am only using them to focus long distances like in the classroom. Should I sit just far enough to see the board? My prescription might be over. I never asked my prescription.
You wasted 10minutes of my life to tell me that palming isnt the key, but wrote you have some eye exercises (go outside and look into the distance) rlly bruh?
I have been interested in these subjects like forever. I believe it’s the teacher more than the method. I didn’t think Bates method really worked until an instructor incorporated it with many other ideas w) Bates as the core. So in short, I have the gist of Steiner method & it doesn’t work for me. A teacher who central theme is Bates has a much broader approach which makes more sense & really works. So putting down palming to go out & read street signs is asinine . To play w eye glass prescriptions doesn’t work for me.
This video concentrates on ciliary muscle showing than mr. Steiner did not understand or is misrepresenting the Bates method. Dr.Bates clearly explains that ciliary muscle is not responsible for eye focus but all the other muscles around the eyes. It is not a "hunch". He presents in his book the experimental observations that allows him to make this statement. Br. Bates also states in his book that closeup work and fine prints reading (which you could compare to working on a phone or computer) would be excellent practice of the vision if good visual habits are present. He can back his claims from thousands of patients and work in public schools. Not a hunch. I think you should remove Bates Method from your title.
Thank you so much for this video! I decided to take your advice and start with something you suggested at the end of the video that would be good for my cilliary muscle, which was like the video and subscribe :) I think I see better already! :)
Sir, My power is Right Eye: (SPH:-5.00 / CYL:-1.00 / AXIS:180) and Left Eye: (SPH:-4.50 / CYL:-1.00 / AXIS:180). How much time will it take for me to achieve 20/20 vision?
I think he might predict six years, but it might vary a lot depending on ciliary spasm, your genes, your lifestyle, etc. The first diopter may be easier. For eyeball reshaping, he claims 0.75 diopters per year to be typical. The last diopter may be difficult/slow with this method. This info is just my memory from stuff he said in related videos, I'm relatively new to this channel myself and cannot confirm his claims, though they seem plausible.
Hi bro my eyesight is -4.5 in both right and left and what I want to know is how I can improve my eyesight and same can u plzz tell me about endmyopia and what to do in this process..plzzz
Hey if i stare at distant objects or roam without glasses my eyesight further deteriorates and i get a lot of headaches. R:. -2. ,. L:- 1.75 Plz tell what's happening
Hi @endmyopia, when I'm using glasses most of the time I feel like my sight is very blurry... My question is, in order to improve my eye sight doing this kind of exercises should I have to stop wearing my glasses?
I was diagnosed by Astigmatism 2 years ago, Doc Said not to wear glasses regularly i, you would become habitual . 4 days ago i was diagnosed with -1.5D in left eye and -3D in other . I can't give up smartphones nd laptops in today's world but i want this glasses to remove @Jack please suggest some exercises
Help needed Jake, I'm +5 any tips for hyperopia? I started wearing plus lens at age 20 in Uni. 20 years down the line now they want me to wear reading glasses too! Thanks for all the insightful videos.
Can the eye lenses compensate the elongated eyeball? In my experience, YES. I did only active focus without glasses and now i see about 90% just have a 1 diopter of astigmatism which causes that ghost image, but i can see clearly at 10 feet and 15 feet. Do you think myopia can be compensated by the eye lenses?
My vision is almost -5 in both eyes and I feel like a blind douchebag and can’t see shit. The last two years I feel like my doctor hasn’t given me the correct prescription and it’s frustrating.... I’m going to see if this helps. Thank you
Hey Jake, I've heard that our ciliary muscle doesn't relax when we're sleeping either. What if we sleep with a blind fold or sleep mask on - would that be at all beneficial?
So, is this false that when Myopia people look far at the distance challenging their eyes without glasses they get increase of power in eyesight? Because I was told this a lot. Also that watching TV or using phones without glasses increases the power of the eyesight. Is this one too true? Or false?
I am wearing spectacle and with spectacle my left eye 6/6 and right eye 6/9so my question is how can I remove my spectacle forever because I want to go in indian armyI want to remove spectacle and I want my normal eye 6/6 both so please help me how I can ?¿?
I can guarantee you that palming does not induce only a temporary improvement, been palming for now 2 years and I can see way better far even if I stop palming for weeks!!! And I stare at screens whole day, come on, the sciences behind is CORRECT and bates designed a working method, you have to be persistent and put efforts, all your videos are nonsense man, it's not exercice, it's relaxation, nuance
Great anecdotal worthless nonsense. Do you realize that anecdotal accounts are absolutely worthless in science? Hey, guess what? My grandmother lived to be 100 and smoked her whole life, therefore SMOKING IS GOOD FOR YOU. If Bates method is supported by the science link me a peer reviewed scientific article that supports Bates method. Il wait
Honestly I am just happy I recovered most of my eyesight using Bates method, this method is free and everyone can learn it from the internet, endmyopia.org is trying to sell something, Bates wasn't, so you guys had to come with something different from the Bates method :-) anyway, I have been consistent in practising palming and shifting for now 2 years and this has paid and is still paying, I have recently started using plus lenses as well for my near work and the first days I got improvement as well, so the road to 20/20 will take probably 1 more year for me and in total 3 years but oh boy it is so rewarding to see with my own eyes and that keeps my motivation, it is very slow. To answer your question, there hasn't be any official study but a small collection of direct and indirect evidence, check here : www.iblindness.org/evidence/
It makes me very sad & disappointed to see negative videos about the Bates Method. I've been able to reduce my prescription by 1.5 diopters in less than 4 months using Bates methods. Palming is very much a part of my daily practice. In order to improve, you have to learn to relax your eyes, period. It's really not rocket science which makes it especially sad to see anyone claim to be an "expert" about something so basic. If EndMyopia is so fabulous, then why vilify other methods? As with many things in life, there's usually more than one way to skin a cat. As Dr. Bates said, people hold tension in different ways & therefore need different ways to relieve the tension. Different is not necessarily wrong.
Hi i am.33 years old female i did lasek eye surgery in 2016 now i had - 1.25 sight in left eye before lasek i can see near things clearly with out glases not afyer surgery now i got -1.25 but this time i can't see clearly blury vison even near also far also i went to eye doctor he said -1.25 sight cylinder power also so can i correct my eye sight with this excercises please help me left eye S = 0.50 C = -1.25 Axis = 90 Ps =4.7 Right eye S=-0.50 C= 0.75 Axis=86 Ps =4.9 Pd =60 Can I reverse it please say I am from india
can you please help with advice......i am 51 i have issues needing glasses for reading but i have been using readers for years and then got glasses but the prescription was wrong and they needed to be stronger now im using the new glasses and having watery strained eyes and sometimes have issues seeing even with the glasses and smaller print.....my right eye is weaker than left is there any hope i dont know what to do....thank you
is better to do active focus with or without glasses i have 5.00 left and 4.50 left,but my vision is still blurry (a bit) with my precription glasses,but it takes like 30 cm plus to get " blurry " with 12 font text. i do active focus usually without my glasses because its easier to hold the book like 15 to 20 cm from my face rather than 35 or something.but is it better or the same as having normalized glasses that have lower prescriptions? and if i want to do close up work perhaps like making a document,or school work,or playing my phone in general.is it better to do it without using my glasses and see it from 1 to 2 cm blur horizon all the time?
If the glasses are creating blur then you can do it with them. Should really be for distance only and you should avoid using glasses for close up work and/or get a lower prescription which work at lower distance but will create blue if you move back a few cm's.
At 5 and 4.5 you will find it hard to not use something for close up work, unless you can hold it at 15-20 cm all the time? That is why for close up work differentiated glasses are suggested. Go to optician, ask for prescription for close up work. If you can get away with not using your glasses then that's the way to go and try to practise the active focus by taking text to edge of blur and trying to focus it to cleaner image. Avoid too much close up work (take breaks) so that your ciliary muscle doesn't go into spasm, otherwise your eye can not focus properly once this occurs and until you relax the muscle then close up work may only make the myopia worse.
Neil Doerdan for the few days that i tried,it seems to not be giving me as much problem as i thought it would,its just a matter of getting used to it,holding the 15 to 20 cm distance. but i'll definitely consider it,the only thing im worried about is just financing,my family isnt really "rich" thank you for your time
@@paintingandcraftsss depends on how much you exercise a day. It might take weeks, months and even years but it mostly depends in ur prescription aswell
I liked your video and I realized my left eye's vision was fixed somehow. Then I subscribed and my right eye's vision got fixed. Suddenly my myopia go gone just by sitting in front of the computer and my mom says not to sit on a computer for too long :P BTW I do eye shifting exercise..its like looking at my thumb for 5 seconds and then looking at the tip of a pole that is kinda far away for 5 seconds. Will that help? and how much time will it take?
Jake I have a question do you think that those things that you put on your eyes to sleep would help in any way? Because I used them last night they were a lil tight and when I woke up today I noticed that I could see a lot better but it didn’t last all day
This one win definitely trigger the Bates people. I predict this video will get alot of dislikes as Bates people can be quite cult like. Hopefully some will take to the more rational scientific approach
I was looking at options to solve eye sight issues and Bates is the main one that came up. Nothing on myopia came up on first few months of searches. But like many going glasses free at -5 is not an option. I'm glad I kept digging and came across Jake's suggestion which I have now adopted and have been trialling for a few weeks. Lets hope I get the same success as others have.
Haha. I am a Bates person. I agree with everything Jake says except for his judgement about Bates not being relevant today. Bates discovered the way eyesight works. He described it in terms of memory and imagination, which is exactly the same thing that Jake calls 'active seeing'. Everybody thinks they have a unique angle and wants to make money out of it - but that doesn't mean that others are wrong.
Can someone please tell me that the thing he is talking about that is to go outside and focus on far away things, do we have to do this without wearing glasses or with glasses?

I don't see how it's based on non-science (nonsense) when many people can attest (including myself) that it clears my eyesight to a degree and has improved others to varying degrees, if it's testable repeatable and observable when concurrent with the same, similar or even different situations (light, dark, distance etc) then it's Science, even if it's only proof to yourself...
It's up to the person to put it into practice to prove it to themselves, not to head somebody who has never tried and says it's nonsense because a bunch of other people said not to try it because there is no evidence, make the evidence for yourself, try it yourself before coming to a conclusion based on ignorance! Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance and goes against the basic scientific principles! Taking someone else's word for it and not investigating for yourself is religion!
Note: This is not targeted at you, only the ones who come to conclusions based on other people's word and their word alone.

An IMPORTANT thing ABOUT PALMING which I didn’t see in this video :
Do NOT PUT PRESSURE ON THE EYE BALL while doing palming!! It should be gentle as pressure on the eye ball can harm it.
The correct way to do palming is not with flat hands.
This is how it should be done:
1. RUB BOTH HANDS TOGETHER to generate heat - The warmth of your hands relaxes the six muscles around each eye and attracts more energy and blood flow.
2. CUP THE PALM OF YOUR HANDS and GENTLY PLACE THEM onto the eyes.( overlapping them to optimise light blocking. During palming we should aim also at blocking as much light as possible ) NO PRESSURE at all should be applied- and this is important to know.
There is also the length of TIME recommended to do palming for different eye conditions. While for most vision problems the average is 10-12 min a day, for myopia it is 20 min ( can b 2x10) ; dry eyes 40 min a day ( can also slip this time) and cataract and optical nerve it’s prescribed 60 min a day ( 3x 20).
People with GLAUCOMA should do palming NO LONGER than 18 min a day (3x6 min WITH 5 min INTERVALS)
Palming is my #1.
Sunning #2.
Fasting #3.
#4 (more tedious/laborious) putting a sticker on a window & looking at it - then the distance, repeatedly.
I’ve religiously walked for hours every day (while I was unemployed) looking at the distance; relaxing af, & also sketching the outlines, and it was not effective AT ALL as the above practices.
A 20 minute palming session improves my vision 25 to 50%.
I lay down and use a big elastic band to enwrap my elbows around my neck.
Now I’ve incorporated massaging my eye sockets as I palm.
Remember: The eyes are not an untouchable/non-massagable part of the body. You can touch and massage any part of your body.

a simple google Search.
Have you made any progress since? If so how long have you been doing the Bates Method if I may ask.
@@hyeluvz
it’s like getting enough sleep or managing weight, we don’t always maintain our ideal target. When I do do them yes, I get much progress - it’s startling, I have been reading about it for years, but like meditation or gym or running, I need more discipline to do it regularly. It’s the only natural way:
Palm, sun, fast, keep work/living areas bright & push screens back. Only thing is to do it. 😊
@@hyeluvz
also plus lenses for near work.
researchers put minus lenses on chickens for a while & guess what happened? their eyes accommodated & elongated…
So the reverse is also true. The eyes are an accommodating machine. That can get atrophied & or spasmodic over years of misuse. Nothing wrong there just cause & effect. Don’t sleep for a few days & life becomes unbearable lol. We have to use ourselves smarter.
Btw, the therapy is like tight rope walking. Can you? Yes. But will you or have the motivation to incorporate tightrope walking everyday, at least till you master it?
We all have time, but we just don’t use time correctly, we can watch hours of shorts, or look at a Ted-talk or we can just palm and listen. It feels like you have an extra job…but we have to invest in ourselves, what else are we gonna do?:)
Palming is the # 1 most effective tool, at least for me.
Hands have healing power/chi. Your hands can mold, massage, heal, reduce pain. Hit your elbow & what do you? Rub and hold it with your palm!
Hands heal.
Distance viewing is of course necessary as well, but slower, more tedious & a bit frustrating, in my experience.
So,
Lie down. Use a rubber exercise band or a waist/back support velcro belt to support your palming: put elbows inside & stretch the other end over your head or back of neck. Rub your hands together for a bit. Palm. Overlapped hands or symmetrical. Do at least 6 minutes. Nap if you want in this position. Leave hands on eyes. Massage a bit now & then.
You can use any positive affirmation IF you wish: "my eyes are perfect, I see beyond 20/20, my hands heal me, I am healed now" etc.
The fastest most healing way that works for me (when I do do it;).
I HAVE WALKED A BIKE PATH FOR HOURS EVERYDAY SKETCHING/CENTRALIZING THE DISTANCE TO VERY SLOW & FLEETING CLARITY...
Just palm. It's more Eastern/energetic. Experiment/test it. Don't take anyone's word for it folks. Best of health!!!:)
Other helpful info:
1. Quit nicotine (vasoconstrictor) is a must!
2. Run (overall better circulation)
3. Fast (frees up energy)
4. Cayenne eye wash (Dr. Christopher helped heal many eyes issues, even cataracts by this method)
5. Sunbathe (at least your face/eyes)
6. Eat more Omega 3's (wild salmon)
7. Use GLA supplement (black currant seed oil) if you have dry eyes. Helps produce moisture/lubrication.
Never push through an injury -
Heal first!.
Do it all. Pick what you like. Follow yourself. Cheers!

@@xeropunt5749 I’m trying but it’s hard as I’ve not long awakened to what’s really going on with this plandemic. It’s such a scam and so depressing.
Great video! I need to do all of this. Palming is something that has been being done in yoga for thousands of years. Good point that all these exercises were made at a time when our eye challenges were very different. Thank you, I’m seeking the link below to target issues I have more directly 🙏🏼
Most Bates Method teachers on and off RUclips that I have found suggest the Bates Method eye exercises (solarization, palming, swinging, etc.) along with other practices like yogic eye movement, taking breaks, getting outside, and focusing on distant objects. So the habits that you are teaching are great (like the one's you shared in your 5 habits/tips for better eyesight) but a lot of your videos seem to say "even though bates was on to something, his practices dont work anymore" when there are a ton of people who testify that it works. Because this is a relatively long term pursuit, using bates' exercises as well as implementing the habits you suggest probably yield the highest succcess rate, even though it may take more commitment.
U right bro he clearly says it was made 100 years ago his method are more effective but Bates still works.
Ken Palamara
Bates is good
New methods are better
That's the cliffsnotes. XP
Dr. Bates was a genius. Everything currently taught about improving natural eyesight was discovered by Dr. Bates and many of the "new" teachers just re-package what he taught. Active focus was taught by Bates but he used different terminology. There are several ways to relax the eyes, palming being one of them. The trick is finding which ones work best for you. Thankfully there are wonderful Bates teachers online who can help people improve their vision fairly quickly.

No. It helps because it relaxes the eye due to lack of stimulus. Also there's something about blackness and nervous systems relaxation correlation. :) It's pretty interesting.

Hi Jake, this is a very interesting video on a side of palming that I wasn't aware of. I used to wear glasses from age 12 to 42, getting stronger ones every couple of years, and I was able to heal my eyes naturally and achieve 20/20. While I have tried nearly 80 different exercises from 14 books, I can tell you that ones that gave me the largest amount of lasting improvement were the exercises done with closed eyes. One of them was palming. Of course, as my vision was approaching 20/20, I also added some exercises that include looking into the distance, and counting objects in the distance, like branches, and eventually leaves. It's interesting that there are so many different exercises, and not all of them work equally well for every individual. Also, I think it's very important who is your teacher, as the "fine print" you would learn from her/him is probably more important than just the basic description of the exercise. Thank you very much for trying to help the world see better !!!
Igor Djordjevic How bad was your vision when it was at it’s worst?
Amelia Silfverland , my left eye was -3.50 and right eye was -7.00. These are not regular myopia numbers. I had amblyopia and pure astigmatism. So my prescription had these value and axis or angle for each lens. High astigmatism was giving me blurred vision both near and far. When I started to do exercises, both near and far became sharper at the same time. I wish you best of luck Amelia!!!
@@igordjordjevic4264 sir i have astigmatism of .5D ..can i correct it in 1-2 months with correct diet and exercise and nutrition.. hoping for a quick reply...😁
Hello “I dont know what i am doing “. Yes, I am certain you will succeed in healing your eyes and getting rid of your astigmatism. For fastest progress, I suggest: Palming, Sunning and Yogic Eye Movements. Besides Jake’s videos, for Sunning and Plaming I suggest videos by Dr Meir Schneider and for Yogic Movements, check out Nathan Oxenfeld. Be well and see well!
@@igordjordjevic4264 hey do you have insta or a way i can reach you ?
Uses the Bates method many years ago. When I did, I gain about 30% in vision. I also got the proof from tests, before and after from an optometrist test.
Great video. I have astigmatism, myopia (-0.5 and -0.75) and floaters. I have a prescription for glasses that I wear while watching movies or driving. But also, I work more than 8 hours a day in front of a screen, so I wear yellow glasses (for blue light, without any diopter), too. Then, I decided to try the Bates method. I stopped wearing any glasses. I have been doing palming, watching the sun, focusing on distances, and looking from the most left to the most right and from the top to the bottom for 10 days, and I feel my eyes slightly better. But without wearing the yellow glasses during screen time, I feel my eyes are exhausted at the end of the day. Is it normal? Should I wear them in front of the screen?
Whatever the reason you are doing palming try to BLOCK LIGHT during this practise.
It’s the darkness that relaxes the ciliary muscles, retina and optic nerves.
Can u make the video short and accurate ???? Im genuinely searching for ways to get rid of eye impairemnt. But its reallyyy tough to get the info i m looking for it.
Makes sense, think about what he was trying to do. Relax the ciliary muscles.
You can palming 12 hours if you want to get perfect vision,this also depends on the dioptrion.
Or 24 hours for really perfect vision.
@@endmyopia really or just kidding ?
@Faith Love i really tried it :( :'((

😂 love your sense of humour and you do it with such a straight face. Lol. Thanks for the info shared. 😊👍🏾
I read some Bates book over 20 years ago and liked some of the ideas. Palming for an hour once a day didn't do anything for me though. But I talked about the ideas in the book to a friend who at that time didn't need glasses. He was an avid gamer though (not a bookworm like me) and he eventually did need glasses. He then used the ideas I talked about to him to improve his vision and had it verified by an optometrist. It seems Bates's ideas work better if you catch it early. I was jealous. I'm hoping reduced lenses and active focus will help me reduce my dependency on glasses too. I've got a lot longer way to go though.
Just got -1 power in both eyes last week. Can u please tell me what did your friend do?
plz tell us what idea you shared with him
@@deepikaingle4753 that was over 20 years ago. Probably all of the ones in the book though including palming. He may have gone and done some research himself too.

There are definitely a difference in vision when you palm. My eyesight is -1200 perscription.
I heard our style of education causes eye sight problems from reading off of flat surfaces....I know it sounds crazy but they did studies and found that humans without a formal education don't have eye problems. Assuming that they have a good diet, eating regularly. Yet those in areas with access to modern technology/education have high rates of eye disorders
U r 💯 correct...my grandfather is just 5th passed..yet he has 20/20 vision and he is in his 80s..

Subscribed. Check. I loved the joke in the end too. Haha.
I've trained myself back into my -2.25 glasses/lenses several times over the years. Now I'm supermotivatd to finally get rid of them.I'm just more annoyed than ever, needing "devices" to go out, do sports and allof that. Nice having found that channel.
What happened
@@RahulSah-f8eHi, good to ask. Actually, I got out of my -2.25 glasses, starting out with them being too weak. So, I think I started between -2.75 and -2.5. I switched to -1.5, but those are still a little weak after a year. I am back to doing palming also, because without it, I plateaued for months. I don't think that the advice in the video is wrong. I suspect its different for different situations. Or, not everyone can do palming correctly, where the eye muscles really let go.
Anyway, I will go on and on with the exercises, but its probably not practical for normal people, who won't and can't hours and hours into this each week for years.
Is it normal that my eyes are filled with tears once after doing palming ?
Bates said to read small print which is similar to practicing long distance focusing. Also Bates Shifting which is similar to long distance looking but using movement to bring relaxation into the eyes. Either way - it´s ALL based of Bates - I DON´T WANT LASERS, GLASES OR MODERN DOCTORS . PETER GRUNWALD HAS SOME NICE IDEAS TOO, which came from F.M Alexander.
Small print as substitute doesn't work in practice. Reality is, there is no substitute for distance vision, to fix distance vision. (source: 20 years & tens of thousands of participants of EM)
I just liked the video and now my ciliary muscle feels amazing :)))
Hi! I have -3.25 vision and I’ve tried different methods to improve my eyesight, but I’ve never really seen much improvement. Do you have any advice?
@RaylaHarris789 Hi Rayla. If you live in the US or Canada, I suggest attending a 3-day vision retreat in San Francisco.

Enjoy and best of luck to you, on your vision improvement journey!

Need some help. Here’s my eye results:

OS: -2, Cylinder: -1.75
Should I reduce my prescription to this and for a single distance for computer use?
OD: -2.25, Cylinder: -1.00
OS: -1.75, Cylinder: -1.5
What should I do with my prescription glasses? I am only using them to focus long distances like in the classroom. Should I sit just far enough to see the board? My prescription might be over. I never asked my prescription.
You wasted 10minutes of my life to tell me that palming isnt the key, but wrote you have some eye exercises (go outside and look into the distance) rlly bruh?
Some people find this, look at the description, click the links, and discover how to end their myopia.
I have been interested in these subjects like forever. I believe it’s the teacher more than the method. I didn’t think Bates method really worked until an instructor incorporated it with many other ideas w) Bates as the core. So in short, I have the gist of Steiner method & it doesn’t work for me. A teacher who central theme is Bates has a much broader approach which makes more sense & really works. So putting down palming to go out & read street signs is asinine . To play w eye glass prescriptions doesn’t work for me.
Whatever works for you!
Excellent video! Thanks for the explanation. Going to learn this active focus.
So are you saying , wear glasses actually makes your sight worst?
This video concentrates on ciliary muscle showing than mr. Steiner did not understand or is misrepresenting the Bates method. Dr.Bates clearly explains that ciliary muscle is not responsible for eye focus but all the other muscles around the eyes. It is not a "hunch". He presents in his book the experimental observations that allows him to make this statement. Br. Bates also states in his book that closeup work and fine prints reading (which you could compare to working on a phone or computer) would be excellent practice of the vision if good visual habits are present. He can back his claims from thousands of patients and work in public schools. Not a hunch. I think you should remove Bates Method from your title.
Thank you so much for this video! I decided to take your advice and start with something you suggested at the end of the video that would be good for my cilliary muscle, which was like the video and subscribe :) I think I see better already! :)
"Also great for your ciliary muscle is subscribing to this channel" 🤣🤣 love it
Sir,
My power is Right Eye: (SPH:-5.00 / CYL:-1.00 / AXIS:180) and Left Eye: (SPH:-4.50 / CYL:-1.00 / AXIS:180).
How much time will it take for me to achieve 20/20 vision?
I think he might predict six years, but it might vary a lot depending on ciliary spasm, your genes, your lifestyle, etc. The first diopter may be easier. For eyeball reshaping, he claims 0.75 diopters per year to be typical. The last diopter may be difficult/slow with this method. This info is just my memory from stuff he said in related videos, I'm relatively new to this channel myself and cannot confirm his claims, though they seem plausible.

Think myopia, but the other way around. Though that's not what my channel is about. ;)
Can the eye lenses compensate the elongated eyeball? In my experience, YES.
I did only active focus without glasses and now i see about 90% just have a 1 diopter of astigmatism which causes that ghost image, but i can see clearly at 10 feet and 15 feet.
Do you think myopia can be compensated by the eye lenses?

Shlee xo -5 on both 😢😢I have -3 and -1 and still feel blurry 👓
thanks Jake, I am wondering does closing the eyes work the same as looking in the distance?
This may help lower rx but it will not heal your vision. I've actually used this for 2 years, my rx dropped. 25, which is barely anything.
Then you’re not doing it quite right. 0.25 D improvement every 3-4 months is average and reported by a large volume of students for over a decade. 🤔
Some of us can't afford to go outside all day. So why not just hold the damn screens further to still force relaxation on them' ciliary muscles
That's a start.
Where did he say spend the whole day outside exercising your eyes? Go outside to watch all the girls go by, and have fun!
Hey Jake, I've heard that our ciliary muscle doesn't relax when we're sleeping either. What if we sleep with a blind fold or sleep mask on - would that be at all beneficial?
you heard wrong im afraid, if I get a spasm, it releases almost every night but once , if the spasm doesnt release then it was a severe spasm,
So, is this false that when Myopia people look far at the distance challenging their eyes without glasses they get increase of power in eyesight? Because I was told this a lot. Also that watching TV or using phones without glasses increases the power of the eyesight. Is this one too true? Or false?
The blue light of screens is bad for your vision.

Sir, my both eyes are the number of Chachame _3.75, how should you reduce the Chachame number.
I can guarantee you that palming does not induce only a temporary improvement, been palming for now 2 years and I can see way better far even if I stop palming for weeks!!! And I stare at screens whole day, come on, the sciences behind is CORRECT and bates designed a working method, you have to be persistent and put efforts, all your videos are nonsense man, it's not exercice, it's relaxation, nuance
"I can see way better". That's the sort of tangible, science and data driven analysis (diopters ftw) we like here. ;)
endmyopia you didn't present more data than I did you? You just keep on saying it does not work or works to some extent, how scientific is that? :-)
Great anecdotal worthless nonsense. Do you realize that anecdotal accounts are absolutely worthless in science? Hey, guess what? My grandmother lived to be 100 and smoked her whole life, therefore SMOKING IS GOOD FOR YOU. If Bates method is supported by the science link me a peer reviewed scientific article that supports Bates method.
Il wait
Honestly I am just happy I recovered most of my eyesight using Bates method, this method is free and everyone can learn it from the internet, endmyopia.org is trying to sell something, Bates wasn't, so you guys had to come with something different from the Bates method :-) anyway, I have been consistent in practising palming and shifting for now 2 years and this has paid and is still paying, I have recently started using plus lenses as well for my near work and the first days I got improvement as well, so the road to 20/20 will take probably 1 more year for me and in total 3 years but oh boy it is so rewarding to see with my own eyes and that keeps my motivation, it is very slow. To answer your question, there hasn't be any official study but a small collection of direct and indirect evidence, check here : www.iblindness.org/evidence/
It makes me very sad & disappointed to see negative videos about the Bates Method. I've been able to reduce my prescription by 1.5 diopters in less than 4 months using Bates methods. Palming is very much a part of my daily practice. In order to improve, you have to learn to relax your eyes, period. It's really not rocket science which makes it especially sad to see anyone claim to be an "expert" about something so basic. If EndMyopia is so fabulous, then why vilify other methods? As with many things in life, there's usually more than one way to skin a cat. As Dr. Bates said, people hold tension in different ways & therefore need different ways to relieve the tension. Different is not necessarily wrong.
Great information thanks a lot Almighty God bless you always

is better to do active focus with or without glasses
i have 5.00 left and 4.50 left,but my vision is still blurry (a bit) with my precription glasses,but it takes like 30 cm plus to get " blurry " with 12 font text.
i do active focus usually without my glasses because its easier to hold the book like 15 to 20 cm from my face rather than 35 or something.but is it better or the same as having normalized glasses that have lower prescriptions?
and if i want to do close up work perhaps like making a document,or school work,or playing my phone in general.is it better to do it without using my glasses and see it from 1 to 2 cm blur horizon all the time?
If the glasses are creating blur then you can do it with them. Should really be for distance only and you should avoid using glasses for close up work and/or get a lower prescription which work at lower distance but will create blue if you move back a few cm's.
Neil Doerdan ok,but is it the same if i just dont use my glasses for close up work?
in theory,it should work,right?
At 5 and 4.5 you will find it hard to not use something for close up work, unless you can hold it at 15-20 cm all the time?
That is why for close up work differentiated glasses are suggested. Go to optician, ask for prescription for close up work.
If you can get away with not using your glasses then that's the way to go and try to practise the active focus by taking text to edge of blur and trying to focus it to cleaner image.
Avoid too much close up work (take breaks) so that your ciliary muscle doesn't go into spasm, otherwise your eye can not focus properly once this occurs and until you relax the muscle then close up work may only make the myopia worse.
Neil Doerdan for the few days that i tried,it seems to not be giving me as much problem as i thought it would,its just a matter of getting used to it,holding the 15 to 20 cm distance.
but i'll definitely consider it,the only thing im worried about is just financing,my family isnt really "rich"
thank you for your time
20$ dollars plus shipping, dont need to be rich
Can you improve your sight after vitrectomy and cataract operations?
Any insights?
I did the whole nine yards so far...
Not a doctor. Can't comment on medical issues, subsequent activities - also limited data and experience there. Best bet, check our forum.
Hi Jake, can it help for lazy eye and peripheral vision loss?
Hello Jake i have a question going outside and looking in distance to challenge eyes , do that with glasses or without them??
I think its without. With glasses youre not pushing the eye muscles to be in the correct form
my eyesight is on a -2.5 so how long will it take me to get my eyesight to a 20/20? plz help i dont want to wear glasses
It’ll take quite some time but depends on how much time u spend outside and exceeding
Exercising*
@@weeklylife283 but in how much time??
@@paintingandcraftsss depends on how much you exercise a day. It might take weeks, months and even years but it mostly depends in ur prescription aswell
@@weeklylife283 so my prescription is -2.50...
And if I did exercise for 10mins (shifting)
Now how much time will it take??
Please tell
then what should i do to get rid of this nonsense myopia ??
Excellent thank you 🎉
I liked your video and I realized my left eye's vision was fixed somehow. Then I subscribed and my right eye's vision got fixed. Suddenly my myopia go gone just by sitting in front of the computer and my mom says not to sit on a computer for too long :P
BTW I do eye shifting exercise..its like looking at my thumb for 5 seconds and then looking at the tip of a pole that is kinda far away for 5 seconds. Will that help? and how much time will it take?
Do you just do
shifting?
Jake I have a question do you think that those things that you put on your eyes to sleep would help in any way? Because I used them last night they were a lil tight and when I woke up today I noticed that I could see a lot better but it didn’t last all day
This one win definitely trigger the Bates people. I predict this video will get alot of dislikes as Bates people can be quite cult like. Hopefully some will take to the more rational scientific approach
+Exotic Games True. I should just leave it alone but then ... people search Bates keywords. Gotta give them options.
I was looking at options to solve eye sight issues and Bates is the main one that came up. Nothing on myopia came up on first few months of searches. But like many going glasses free at -5 is not an option. I'm glad I kept digging and came across Jake's suggestion which I have now adopted and have been trialling for a few weeks. Lets hope I get the same success as others have.
Haha. I am a Bates person. I agree with everything Jake says except for his judgement about Bates not being relevant today. Bates discovered the way eyesight works. He described it in terms of memory and imagination, which is exactly the same thing that Jake calls 'active seeing'. Everybody thinks they have a unique angle and wants to make money out of it - but that doesn't mean that others are wrong.
How much time did it took you to restore your eye sight ?
@Jack should we wear eyeglasses when looking far distance at outside ?
I am planning to quit my job and be more with nature. I actually hate nature. Bugs, mud dirt
Welcome *applause * thanks video
I done -2.5 to -1 in 3 months by only Bates method

Without glasses :)

@@prabhleenkaur1673 not without glasses, with reduced prescription. Not for anytime, but as a habit, watch his other videos.
