Why learn about natural vision?

Are you looking for a good reason to learn about natural vision improvement??
... You could just pray about it of course ...

God, grant me the senility
To forget the people
I never liked anyway,
The good fortune
To run into the ones I do,
And the eyesight to tell the difference
author unknown
If this prayer doesn't work for you,
You have a choice...

There is the choice of Eyesight Deterioration:

1. It begins with Good Eyesight

2. At some point you experience Visual Strain and/or Mental Stress

3. Eye strain and tense eye muscles cause changes in the shape of the eye

4. This results in lowered visual acuity

5. You don't know what to do about it, so you visit an optician or optometrist or eye doctor

6. He or she measures the strain in your eyes,and presumes
there is no way it will ever improve, so he prescribes
corrective lenses or stronger lenses

7. You are told you will have to get used to the lenses

8. This results in more strained vision habits,
so you return to item 2 above.

9. The result of this choice is Poor Vision and a dependency on artificial lenses to see.

And there also is
the choice of Natural Eyesight Improvement:

1. It begins with Poor Eyesight and often a dependency on artificial lenses to see

2. But there is desire for knowledge to improve vision

3. You 'google' or research Eyesight Improvement

4. You learn Better Vision Habits and use your lenses less and/or get a reduced prescription

5. This reduces the visual strain and/or mental stress

6. Which allows the eye muscles to relax and the eye will gradually regain its natural shape.

7. Your eyesight improves and your old lenses are now too strong for you

8. You continue better vision habits,
so you return to item 4 above.

9. The result of this choice is an ability to see clearly with your own eyes again. Congratulations.

So you can view it as a 9 step program of vision, leading to either deteriorated or improved vision.
The choice is yours...

A century ago Dr Bates proved that the way we use our eyes determines how clearly we see, and
by simply changing our strained vision habits into relaxed habits, it is possible to improve eyesight.

If you are ready to learn, start reading the basics, and join a Natural Eyesight Class
Your eyes will be grateful. Enjoy your path to clarity.

Do you know why there are so many potholes in the streets of San Francisco?
... It is Braille for the blind.

Yesterday I was walking down the street wearing my eyeglasses,
and all of a sudden my prescription ran out.

He came up to my table... He took my glasses off and he said, 
'Without your glasses, why, you're beautiful.'  
I said, 'Without my glasses, you're not half bad either.'
