Never bother with blue light filtered coatings. All of our devices likely have colour profile settings or "night" settings where you can turn down blue levels for free. Like if you have a Windows computer, just turn on the "Night Light" setting and it will turn your screens a bit yellow/ orange, but you'll never get headaches again and your eyes will be less sore. Also, turn down the brightness, you likely have that too high as well. My phone and computer only sit at like 50% brightness.
Asa former optician I am in agreement with you on the value of having an AR coating on your glasses. And as you said this is especially true for anyone that drives at night. In my opinion I believe it's actually dangerous driving at night and wearing glasses without that coating. Oncoming car headlights hitting someone's glasses without that coating can be very blinding. One of the best ways to clean your glasses is warm water and soap. It's also very good with getting off old makeup buildup as well. If your out somewhere and need to clean your glasses you can use a micro clothe to clean them. Just never ever use anything made from paper, such as tissues, [paper towels, toilet paper etc.
Hi gemily, I've got an issue that's affecting my ciliary. When I play piano, I wear my differentials but can't lean back enough to keep my hands on the keys. I end up leaning forwards and getting into ciliary lockup. Any ideas? I've tried active focusing but my eyes are constantly moving whilst I'm playing so I lose the clarity and end up inching closer anyway.
Thank you for this video. I love the AR and Blue Light Blocking. I find the blue blocking lenses have a warm effect as well, but I like that about them. Plus, far less migraines. I am curious to try the anti-smudge coating thanks to your recommendation.
“I just want my glasses to be clean. “ Girl I can relate! Can’t say that my glasses get as bad as that though either. I wash them like every other day with dish soap and water and it is usually good. Except when I first reduce lol then I am washing a few times a day for a while. Every single speck bugs me when I start a new correction.
Do you anything regarding corneal astigmatism? I couldn't find anything other than it can't be cured? Is this true? Or can I do something, ANYTHING PLEASE to reverse it?
Thank you! I have been going back and forth on this. My last pair is constantly smudged and dirty. I never remember having this issue with prior pairs and summize it has to do with the most modern lense materials. I'm also deciding between finally trying transitions or getting 2 pairs for less. In the past I've gotten 2 pairs. I want to try transitions but don't want a tint interfering with clear vision when not in the sun.

That is so exciting! I haven't had that experience in SUCH a long time with this plateau.... although.... I think I am getting there again now. How exciting for you to be so close now!!
If I were starting again, I would have left my astigmatism in for my normalised until I had equalised, If you want to drop it and are already equalised, then I would recommend either dropping just a quarter, or, if yu want to try dropping the whole 0.5, then add a 0.25 of sph to make up for it. Just some ideas - not correction advice.
@@mikelin6381 Have a look at these posts from Jake - they should give you all the proper EndMyopia advice you need. You probably want to look at dropping it in your differential glasses at this stage... Jake seems to suggest dealing with astigmatism BEFORE equalising, unlike I suggested in my previous comment. XD So, listen to Jake before me - he has way more experience and collected knowledge: endmyopia.org/pro-topic-how-to-reduce-prescription-complexity/ endmyopia.org/pro-topic-addressing-1-diopter-astigmatism-for-close-up/
@@GemilyMez i got my new pair of glasses today, they give me 1.75sph and 0.5 cylinder correction. my old pair of glasses is without cylinder correction. i tried it, it is very very small difference between them. i have to say with cylinder correction, i look better but i got eye strain more fast and feel unconfortable for long time. i think i will tell they to give me 1.5sph without cylinder correction. that will be my first normalized. lets do this
Hello, can someone link me to any reversing process for corneal astigmatism? I've been searching in the endmyopia website and I can't find anything except that it can't be fixed? Does that mean that I can't reverse my corneal astigmatism? Or are there ways like maybe differentials or exercises? I tried active focusing it didn't work. Please someone help me :((
@@shinyfennecfox1421 If it is actually your cornea, then perhaps it cannot be reversed using the EM method. You could always try weaning off the cyl correction just a 0.25 incriment at a time, and seeing whether your visual cortex can make up for the astigmatism or not, as long as you don't undercorrect so much that you can't do things safely like drive. You could always try just one tiny step and take a very long time with it and see whether your vision gets better - no harm in trying. Worst that can happen is that it won't work. Or maybe there is another solution out there. This is not glasses correction advice, just a thought on a possible approach.

I clean mine a lot with disposable lens wipes.

Your commentary on the old smudged pair gave me a good chuckle. Thanks for this video! I am taking your advice on all of the above. Cheers!

The day I don't need to worry about glasses smudges and dirt will be an excellent day. How I wish my glasses had their own eyelids.
Anti smudge is the most essential coating over anything
You convinced me for the smudge proof 👍🏻
I love my smudge proof !
Thanks for this. I believe I have contracted OCD due to smudges on my lenses, you solidified my interest in anti smudge tech!
I saw that transition at 2:00 turning the environment blue when taking about blue coating. Very nice
Thanks so much for this video! Great info!
Did you get the Crizal lenses? You never said what brand are the anti-smudge. The constant smudges are driving me crazy.

LOVED this video!! Just stumbled across it on Google
It's getting so close to reduction day! I haven't been able to improve any more with the glasses I'm wearing now. It's all clear again.

@@GemilyMez Thanks. I reduced yesterday and I think it will go well until the next reduction.
Super helpful!!!
hi it is me again
i have 0.5 astigmatism, should i drop it or just reduce 0.25 too?

@@GemilyMez so with full correction of astigmatism my eyes will not get worse? i mean more astigmatism after

I agree.
With 20/20.
Only plus for near.
man and i thought my smudgy glasses were bad lol
100% agreed

Have you had your cornea mapped by an ophthalmologist? How bad is your astigmatism?
@@GemilyMez yes. -1
