- Does active focus cause eye floaters?
A number of EndMyopia students report having eye floaters, and quite a few link their getting eye floaters with starting EndMyopia. So does EndMyopia cause eye floaters? Is Active Focus dangerous?

🤓 A little about my eyesight: 🤓
I have had glasses for astigmatism since I was 7 years old, but I only needed them for specific circumstances, like reading blackboards or night driving (not when I was 7, obviously).
At the age of 22 I landed an office job, and with my lovely new money I bought a smart phone. 6 months later, I had myopia (also known as short sightedness or near sightedness) and had to wear glasses full-time.
My prescription has been going up since then, and I have been freaking out as I sit back and watch my eyesight deteriorate, feeling helpless and scared.
I was up to -3 in my left eye, and -2.5 in my right eye when I discovered Jake Steiner and the EndMyopia method.
I am still only a few months in, but already I am seeing at almost -2.00 in my left eye -1.75 in my right eye. Small changes, but any improvement is amazing when my eyes have only been deteriorating for the last 10 years.
I am loving knowing more about eyesight and how eyes function. It's fascinating, and learning so much feels empowering. I love that I no longer feel helpless about my vision. I have also quit my smartphone so I could get over my screen addiction. I even bought a Nokia to get me out of temptation's way! Since doing this, I have been making progress with my vision, but also have regained so much of my life and time and perspective, so this vision journey is definitely having positive knock-on effects in my life as a whole.

I agree, Gemily. I've had floaters for years, and when I first got them, I thought I'd never be able to deal with them. However, after time, I did start to adjust and not notice them so much. Since doing Endmyopia, I do notice these same floaters more because I'm looking at the sky and doing other things that I don't typically do, but I don't believe they are worse. I am doing the pineapple thing to try to reduce them, though! Thank you!
Update?
@@Skinbodycarestyle don't work.
Thanks Gem!❤️ I've been waiting for ages for this video.
Oh, I'm so glad I made it then. ❤️ Glad it was helpful.
I just started EndMyopia and I'm hoping that it actually reduces/prevents floaters. I'm currently -6.00 with at least 15-20 tiny floaters. After doing a ton of research, I found that floaters can be caused by an elongated eyeballs which tends to pull on the retina and affect the vitreous jelly. So I'm actually hoping that it will bring the eyeball back to a sphere and prevent a serious condition related to elongated eyeballs.
How’s it going for you?
Hi how are you now
Any update dude?
Hi Gem,
This is an excellent question, for anyone attempting prevention, and or recovery.
IF I DO SOMETHING, WILL IT CAUSE XX PROBLEMS.
In other words, we FEAR taking any action, at all.
We both believe, that Jake easy method, should cause no eye problems.
As you know, I used a plus lens to go from 20/50, to 20/20, but I knew it was totally safe.
Even I knew, there could be a risk.
But I check everything.
As always, I wish you totall success.
I do hope you can now consistently read the 20/60 line, and eventually pass the DMV check for your own satisfaction.
I started noticing my floaters after reading about floaters xd
Haha. Exactly!! It's like when people start talking about lice, your head gets itchy. Except not exactly, because you actually have floaters. You only imagine the lice (I hope).
@@GemilyMez Floaters are terribly easy to ignore, until you notice them. With some time you can learn to ignore them again in the same way we ignore our nose.
I do indeed ignore my nose.
😭yesss why
I used to see floaters when focusing on the sky even when my eyesight was perfect so I don't think they are a issue
How many floaters do you see 😢
am i the only one who doesnt care about floaters i treat them as something normal? i remember the first time i saw floaters i was a kid ,i had perfect vision back then ,i notice floaters when i was looking into the bright sky and i thought that they were angles lol . since then i sometimes notice them sometimes not and even when i see them i dont get frustrated or anything because i know that they are not something harmful .
Aww, angels? That's so lovely. What a magical way to look at the world. ❤️ Floaters don't frustrate me, really, even though I have a pretty big one in my central vision for my left eye. But yeah, I know what it is, and that this is pretty much the extent of it so... 🤷♀️ But a lot of people seem pretty bothered by them. Don't know whether they have them worse than I do, or if they just stress about them more. It has come up so much though, that I thought I would make a video about it.
I was aware of my floaters before EM, but I definitely think many people aren't and you are on point that most notice them for the first time as they become aware of their vision. I don't know about your second theory with the ciliary spasm release but I do agree with the likelihood that myopia is the primary cause of floaters.
Yeah, so it makes sense a lot of EM students have them. My more myopic eye is also the one with more floaters.
So it doesn’t make it worse?
Thank you so much gem 💓..
I've watched all of your videos at least twice, and my eyes are really improving!
Older prescription
Left: -3.75 bananas, right: -3.25 bananas
After 3 months today
Left: -3 bananas, right: -2.5 bananas (0.75 bananas reduction!)
Astigmatism remains same as I haven't done anything to it yet! (L: -1.5D, R: -2.5D)
bananas
The drop on your prescription is because of reduced cilliary spasm? How do you drop astigmatism?
@@Farrusco91 I'm not sure..well maybe it was the ciliary spasm release...but I don't know..I couldn't tell... I didn't feel any release..it just happened it just reduced
@@Farrusco91 initially I stopped wearing glasses for a week..
Then suddenly I was able to read books without glasses...
After a week I couldn't read with my myopic glasses... Then I used my older glass with -1 D and same astigmatism as normalised.. I would try to get that clear flash (watery,eye stinging method)
After a month I had my eyes checked
It was left: -3.5 D and right: -2.5
0.25 and 0.75 reduction in a month
Then I order new glasses with -3.0 and -2.0 again with the same astigmatism...
This time I was active focusing
(Clear flash and active focus are two different methods)
It went on for 50 days..
3 days ago I noticed the Vision was very clear with the reduced proscription and I was not active focusing..I got them checked out
-3.0 and -2.5
Left eye had a 0.5 reduction
The Right eye is still blurry with my current glasses..but all it takes is a wink😉 to clear that...
I'll wait another month to see improvement in my right eye..
Then I'll change to a new prescription
@@Farrusco91 regarding astigmatism I haven't tried reducing that yet..but
After a month, I'm going to follow the same active focus with reduced cylinder only...
Hi Gemily,
An excellent question - that we all must answer.
If you do ANYTHING, that is not medical, you get "accused", by the person of causing his floaters.
I get the same issue, when I advocate that a "plus", be worn, to go from reasonable 20/50, to 20/20.
For my immediate relatives, I assured them - that an excessive minus lens would probably destroy their naked eye vision - permanently.
That was their trade off.
But - they trusted me.
Even so, I insisted they have a complete medical exam, before they began wearing the scientific plus.
(None of them entered into myopia - smart kids!)
Still, that, "un-suspected", side issue, is indeed a serious psychological problem.
So - if you are doing E.M., you must be prepared for that complaint.
As a Layman, no one can sue you on your advice.
However, any one who is medical, can and will be sued.
That is why Medical Research, is in the, "Dark Age".
Such a great point, Otie. Those who are licensed medical practitioners are gagged in many ways.
Great video! Also a really interesting topic to explore. I experienced the same, when I read about EM and floaters I noticed that I actually have 2 floaters in my weaker eye :) although since i have been doing EM it seems that they got smaller and now they dissapeared. But i also did lot of massaging around the eyes to improve circulation. I agree that awareness is a big factor here. Your theory about the release of ciliary spasm freeing the debris is also really interesting.
I also think that some people might be doing AF wrong (like what i did when i started :D) i tried to force it, blink a lot unnaturally. Maybe that can contribute to having more floaters? Not sure. But forcing AF caused me lot of dry eyes so I stopped doing that. AF should come naturally with relaxation , without forcing anything.
You are absolutely right about AF. 🙌 How great that your floaters went away!
How did you do AF,it helps you to disappeared your floaters
Dear, really?? Is it possible to get rid of it??
Hello...i have floaters on both eye for 2 year ...my eye power is 4 and 4.5 ...now i noticing starburst at night while looking at light....why?
Another good one Gem!
Thank you, Kevin. ☺️
I think it's just the noticing that contributes to it. And how do you un-notice it once you know it's there? I tried improving my vision by seeing without glasses etc on and off over the years and I've noticed my floaters far more when I'm trying to improve my vision ironically. So yes, not thinking too much about your vision does seem help un-notice them a little but they're still there and didn't really go away. Floaters became a problem for me after laser eye surgery (which didn't fix my near sightedness but did reduce it temporarily). I didn't know about Endmyopia or anything until just last week but I'm definitely going to give it a try. I HATE floaters. Particularly the ones in my right eye. For whatever reason my right eye floaters seems to cause horrible eyestrain but not the left eye floaters. Obviously, I'm hoping to improve my vision and not make my floater situation worse. But there are a couple things you can do regarding floaters. I'm finding a lot of relief just switching my phone/iPad to dark mode. I also switched my Windows computer to High Contrast mode (I like a dark grey background rather the pure black default and it's configurable). You might wear sunglasses in the sun. It depends how bad your floater situation is. My right eye floaters can really cause me a lot of aggravation and if active focus does nothing but aggravate it then I will eventually stop but not without trying first.
Go gently then. Straining for close up vision or distance vision may not be the most helpful. I find wearing lower correction makes mine more obvious - full clarity makes them stand out a lot less. So, vision improvement may make them more noticeable for that reason too....
@@GemilyMez When I wrote that post I had just started Endmyopia and for whatever reason the floaters popped out in my vision etc as bad as ever. But after doing Endmyopia for a few weeks I guess I adjusted and it's about the same as before again.
@@paulwalther5237 update?
I totally agreed I also came across floaters after reading it in EM forum and then I started to see them but when I am not focusing mean to say when I don't concentrate or pay attention they never disturb me unless I feel anxiety about having them.
I agree with your thoughts. A good idea is just to visit ophthalmologist to check eyes health while in process of reversing myopia, as you adviced.
Always a good idea to keep an 'eye' on your eye health. :D
Mam i have tiny, ring, lines, and, cobwebs like floaters and i have a big dot and tails coming it.iam just 18.and just 1.5 myopic
How are you now??
I'm not myopic, 20/20 vision but sudden having bundle of floaters, checked with Opthalmologist no Pvd retina is healthy yes i have health anxiety disorder and after panic attack i got floaters
I do get to see little floaters but I've never tried active focous method.
Thnx a lot dear you just made a proper video just for me although Jake already cleared my doubt but still I appreciate your work towards your audience 😊😊🙌🙌
Where did Jake clear your doubt? Was it in a video, or on facebook etc? I'd love to see what he said.

My floaters are bad, but actually worse in my Hyperopia eye, and less in my Myopia eye. (And I ate pineapple today! 😆)
Wow, that is super interesting! Hope the pineapple helps - let us know if you notice any change!
It was nearly the same for me I noticed floaters about 1 day after discovering EM
😆 love it. Thanks for commenting. It is good to hear other people had the same experience.
Update?
@@Skinbodycarestyle what caused yours ?
My guess before watching is that as your vision improves you notice floaters even more
I think so too.
Update?
While doing active focus I'm getting headache is it normal?!
i had some floaters as a child when my eyesight was deteriorating rapidely. afterwards when it stabilized more or less, i didn't notice them anymore until the first few months after finding active focus. now they have reduced again a bit i feel. my theory is that rapid or sudden changes in axial length might couse debris at the bottem of the eye to become floating around more, hence more floaters. but i haven't found any conformation of this yet.
confirmation*
@@dennisdijkema4197 hey from which age you have eye flotus... I'm 18 my eye power is -5 please let me know more about your case
Does the floaters disappeared now?..... I also found floaters after active focus....
@@vishnun5653 did it stayed?
I m from India I don't understand active focus
Is Active focus is staring on objects without blinking and without glasses
ruclips.net/video/7BvHDvrk0dQ/видео.html
I'm confused. Wearing glasses makes the floaters and eyesight worse?
Not wearing glasses itself, but the lengthening of the eyeball from progressive myopia is a likely contributor. And wearing your full-correction glasses for close up when you are myopic is likely to cause your eyeball to elongate. Glasses in and of themselves won't cause floaters if you are wearing the appropriate correction, which unfortunately most optometrists don't offer, especially for close up work where we need weaker glasses if we are myopic.
Gem please make a video on double image.
how you resolve your double image and what causes it.
Great idea, thanks for suggesting it. I will. ❤️
I have had pineapple for months. They did nothing to me
Interesting.
How much do you actually spend on glasses ? And would buying from clearly work for me I mean I‘m from germany I dont think it would work I found a side for germany but its really expensive and I have -4.25 means I‘ll need a lot of them.
I looked on brille24.de it was expensive for me tho
I usually spend $40 per pair of glasses - not the cheapest option, but I'm happy to spend that to get the anti-reflective coating, and the frames I want. For me, I don't have to pay shipping from clearly because I live in a country they work from. If you can find one with free shipping for you, that would be great at cutting costs for you.
To buy from Clearly, you'd need to use their US site, which is Coastal.com .
Their cheapest glasses are $9 (US), and international shipping is about $25 (US). If you wanted anti-reflective coating (which is worth it to me), that is another $15 US. So you could get a pair of glasses from them by spending $34 US dollars.
You could also try Zenni Optical. Their cheapest frames are $7 (US), with shipping to Germany for $10 (US) - but it could take a month to arrive. $20 for faster shipping. And an extra $5 for anti-reflective coating. So you could get glasses through them for $17 US if you make all the cheapest choices.
Ur vedios are always greattttttt❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️how is ur floaters after pineapple intakes mam
I don't think the pineapple did too much. But another person suggested I do the pineapple experiment again, but add in fasting. So I am going to try that at some point. She said it helped her.
@@GemilyMez yes am trying something else too let's see if it works I will update u
Yes, please do! :)
What about your pineapple and fasting, they were benefited for yourself?
Sometimes i saw running in sunny day and relaxing the ciliary muscle didn’t notice it.
I haven't tried the pineapple with fasting yet. I intend to though. Will certainly let you know how it goes.
@@GemilyMez i only do in morning fasting at that time its become Smaller but after its coming Again. I am trying to carrot juice think its help.
Ma'am your views on homeopathy treatment?
Never tried it. Don't know that there is anywhere near me that offers it.
No.
Hey Mam , I am living with floaters since 2 years and I am just 17. Will they increase? Is my life over?
Your life is definitely not over. They may increase, they may decrease, they may stay the same. I really think looking at your smart phone too much will make them worse. Take care of your vision, and don't let your myopia get worse. A lot of people with myopia develop floaters. If they really make you depressed there are medical things that can be done, although I try to avoid elective medical procedures since all medical procedures carry risk. But your life is definitely not over.
Hey does active focus cause flotters
No, active focus invloves gentle blinks, and paying attention to what you see with your mind. It is not a dangerous or strenuous activity. If anything causes floaters in this method, it is strain - which is not part of the method, but people getting overly zealous and pushing their eyes too hard. Go gently.
