Did she say her retina became thin or better after she started?

[@AznDudeIsOn]

@@aishwaryankakde7686 Better after she started Endmyopia.

[@congyuanjia848]

Did she do the laser retina surgery? I want to know Is that fine using active focus after retinal laser patch up.(i do not have these problem currently, but i am so sick of seeing opthalmologists half a year and check retina.)

I'm glad you started doing these podcasts. It's cool to hear people's stories.

Did active focus help u

[@jay.w]

@@paramjeetthakkar7088 I think so but most of my progress happened pretty slowly before I knew it was called active focus. Wearing a slightly weaker lens did seem to help me go from -4.50 to about -3.00 over the years but I've kind of plateaued since then. Maybe due to my age ( 51 ).

[@paramjeetthakkar7088]

@@jay.w thank you for replying sir! Could u tell me how many years it took to reduce 1.5D?

[@jay.w]

@@paramjeetthakkar7088 I'd say about 0.25 per year.

[@Reannon5]

Absolutely well stated that you need to be ready to have your pillar of reality changed when you come into Endmyopia. We meet so much resistance and disbelief because people hold firm to that pillar of reality and don't even allow themselves to be logical, they have their accepted reality and can hear anything that contradicts it. The way this is growing it is my hope that much of the next generation will have access to the reality that your eyes, like the rest of your body, responds to stimulus and they can choose better stimulus.

[@hybridangel3403]

I am really interested in higher prescription Endmyopians. Particularly as I -13.25 in one eye and -12 50 in the other. Well done girl.

[@congyuanjia848]

Do you have any retina issues? i m at -8, 20 years old. I checked currently they are fine ,but i am too worried about retina issues.

[@hhancp]

I'm about - 9 but the optometrist prescribed lower lenses as I get dizzy with the actual ones.

Very sweet and well spoken guest. :) Jake’s alright too.

[@Casey73955]

Endmyopia has made me realize that you can’t always trust what you hear/see. You have to look at things close and fact check at all times. I now find myself doing that with all kinds of things in life, so thank you for that, truly.

[@rosakne8543]

Thankyou for this informative reassuring conversation and greatest respect to Jake for his intelligent courageous and compassionate determination to show us the truth and the way to recovery.

Any update on this testimony? Thank you!

Jake what do i do man Im 17 and my parents won't let me use the reduced lense method Im stuck what do i doooo

[@keminva]

Use the best habits you can, and learn as much as possible. When you reach majority, you can earn your own money and start the program. A few months' wait won't really matter over the course of your life. Or figure out a way to explain to your folks that the science is there, and work it into your normal doctor visits. Although getting one of those to cooperate is another story. But these are good life skills for every one.

[@simplesounds2092]

how and what website does she use to purchase glaases/contacts

[@jorrgfromage9929]

i have a weightlifting analogy. if you go from -4 both in eyes to no glasses, this is like lifting the heaviest weight in the gym. it's impossible. if you use your glasses to read close up, this is like being able to lift 30kg but only lifting 1kg weights in the gym. you will weaken the muscle.

Clap in the chat! 👏 Im glad she doing great and a cool story This is great for moviting me on continuing to correct my eyesight And to keep trying.. Also Mr. Steiner what do you think about different types of lens Like high lndex lenses And other types of lenses and would that effect my progress... I'm myopic and I was thing getting a high index lenses on my glasses and reduce my prescription using that type of lenses But would it still work?

@@MrCaps-sq4bk did u reduce any Dioptres? Please tell sir :-)

[@MrCaps-sq4bk]

@@paramjeetthakkar7088 Well not really, because I been procrastinating for awhile. I need to get rid of this habit. However, it can be done, when my dad was young, he had glasses for awhile, but since he always outside, and not doing close up work, he fixed his eye sight. A ranch type of lifestyle. Plus, from personal experience, there were days were I could see decently without glasses. But if you put the commitment to give what your eyes want, and take action, and take care of yourself. You can see better. You can do it, and I need to stop procrastinating, to finally make progress again.
