Good video Nathan! Pls keep it up, the more videos u make of the exercises u do and how u do them, the better. I've looked at many videos and websites but I think you're the one I'll be sticking with to improve my vision again :)
Shaun81000 It took me about 2 years to go from -3.5 to -2.0 on my own and then about 6 months to go from -2.0 to no glasses with the guidance of a Bates Method teacher. Try and set aside between 20 and 60 minutes for vision improvement practices.
+Nathan Oxenfeld Hi Nathan! When you say you went from -3.5 to -2 on your own, what exactly did you do, did you do the same exercises as during the 6 months with a Bates Method Teacher?
Sylvia R. No, I only did what I read from books, like swinging, sunning, palming, and eye exercises. I was totally unaware of the more intricate mental vision practices and all the vision building practices using reading cards and eye charts. That's what my teacher helped me implement and stick to.
is it normal to feel like your eyes are a little tired after vision stretching? I'm pretty new after just taking my glasses off completely I do feel like my eyes get tired. Also you didn't link to that research about sunlight and eyes. would love to see that!
+junior taylor I still wore my glasses to drive and at work and social gatherings and other activities I needed sharp vision in the distance for. But when I wasn't driving, working, etc. I would take them off. I also used weaker prescription glasses as my vision naturally improved to help the reversal process along.
My current eye power is -4.5 in left eye and -5.5 in right eye ,pls suggest me other three weaker prescription point for me to reduce my power or to improve ,pls suggest how I want to reduce my prescription
Not really, you won't get the benefit. The glasses take the focusing responsibility away from the eyes, so as long as your glasses are on, your eye muscles aren't given the opportunity to relax or relearn how to do their job on their own.
Hey how much weaker contact should I go down to right now I wear-3.75 should I put weaker one on now or wait to my original -3.75 get to strong? Thanks!
+junior taylor The best option would be to quit wearing contacts and only wear glasses so that you have more freedom to take them off throughout the day. You could go ahead and order a 'training pair' at -3.5, -3.25, or -3.0, whatever you think you'd be most comfortable with. You can get glasses on zenni.com for so cheap that you could order multiple different strengths to experiment with for different tasks (one pair for driving, one for computer, etc.)
Can I do vision stretching with only one eye (ie, use an eyepatch or close an eye)? I have mild astigmatism in my right eye that causes a noticeable blur in far away objects whenever I close my left eye.
If those were my numbers, I would start experimenting with the naked eye, or maybe with half power glasses to begin weaning off them gradually over time, in addition to implementing a regular Bates Method relaxation and vision building routine.
+junior taylor I would still do all the specific vision practices without any glasses on, and then still maintain the good vision habits (relaxing, blinking, shifting, centralizing, etc.) when you put the weaker glasses back on.

Greetings from Sweden :) Thanks for your videos!
Hej Peter. Hur är dina ögon och förmågan att se idag efter sju år sedan du kommenterade?
Hej praktiserar du bates method? @@adventure09
Nathan, great video. Amazingly, I did this when I was losing my sight.. not knowing it was actually a part of the BAtes Method! _AnaMaria
Can you do the stretching while we walk??
Absolutely!
far and close swing?
How long did it take you to regain a perfect vision. Also, how many times should I do all the exercises you teach about in a day.

OK! Thanks for your answer!
can i also do this at night??I have very high astigmatism thus the distortion from the lamppost light usually blocks the object behind it.

Do you have an email for messaging?
Two years a long time to walk around without contacts or glasses in how was you able to work an drive everyday?

Yes, absoltely!
Any advice for me i am - 1 cyc each eye. Should i wear specs regularly?
If those were my numbers, I would start experimenting with the naked eye, or maybe with half power glasses to begin weaning off them gradually over time, in addition to implementing a regular Bates Method relaxation and vision building routine.
Dang wish I knew you were here.
+lsuman38 Hopefully I'll be back!
SVPFIFA, my email is nathan (at) integraleyesight.com
Marcia, give them a call and ask for Faith, she will give you the info.
dude, repeating stuff for the first half of the video that has nothing to do with the title
Hey I wear a -3.75 can I wear like a weaker 2.75 an do the exercises in them or do I still have to take them out even tho they are weaker ? Thanks!
+junior taylor I would still do all the specific vision practices without any glasses on, and then still maintain the good vision habits (relaxing, blinking, shifting, centralizing, etc.) when you put the weaker glasses back on.
+junior taylor hey , did the method work to reduce eye power?
do getting lower powered glasses help to reduce power?
