Less Diopters Don't Improve Your Eyesight! | Endmyopia | Jake Steiner | Reduced Lens Method ™

[@Adrianthetrader]

Hey jake! i just wanted to share my experience so far and I 100% agree in everything you've said in all your videos man. People listen to jake he's right. 4 months ago my "Full prescription" was at 2.50. I know i was way over corrected because i never used them and everything was super crystal clear. I started off with a -1.75 which gave me a pretty good blur challenge at the distance outdoors. 4 months later i am down to -1.00 and its been a whole month wearing them and im already getting really close to seeing 20/30 all im trying to say is this does work but you need to have your bad habits on check! and do lots of active focus! Thanks alot jake! Youre a real G for discovering this!

[@endmyopia]

Thanks for taking the time to share! You’ll be back to 20/20 in no-time. 👍🏻😬

[@Adrianthetrader]

Yes sir im very excited to get back to 20/20 and i really hope my testimony helps the rest of your followers understand how this works because i know how bad it feels to have poor vision

[@divyansh9837]

I have 1 question, how do you know that you are ready to reduce your glasses second time after reducing it before.

[@donnyjay4269]

Hey. God Bless. Really enjoy your videos. You are doing a great service. I had a retinal tear a few years ago and I have been extremely worried about my eyesight as I progress though adulthood. i'm 27 now and have debris circulating in my vision 24/7 due to my retinal tears. Your videos really restore me with a sense of hope for the future of my ocular health. I recently went from a -5.25 diopter to -4.50 and it seems to be working well for me. Eyes are very important and i'm glad you are presenting great alternative content in contrast to the typical "There is nothing you can do about it" . Keep up the good work.👍🏽

[@rileyesposito3043]

Daren McMillian how long does it takes to drop that ?

[@donnyjay4269]

​@@rileyesposito3043 Not sure, the doctor told me it was suppose to subside within 6-12 months but its been 3 years. The tear on my retina has been repaired and is stable but I may need a surgery called an "FOV Vitrectomy" to get the residue out of my vision. Eyesight is definitely a blessing.

Grew up in the 80s with my parents experimenting with bates method and eye exercises. Although flawed, it taught me how to think atonomous on the subject. For example, I instinctively always refused astigmatism correction. Thank you very much for finally pinpointing the cause and solution. It helps me regain distant eyesight. Yesterday, My optician urged me to sign a disclaimer when my requested 'prescription' didn't match her measurements. Always good fun in debating an 'expert'. Keep up the good work!

[@Livefreeman]

Context is important. I can wear very low diopter and still be able to see people faces. My differential glasses allows me to see people faces just fine. When people interact, they don't really interact from far distance but rather from close distance. Majority of our daily activities are done from short distance except for driving and outdoor activities. Most people will probably only need to see far if they are outdoor as most indoor activities are limited to space and thus seeing distance. Majority of people spend most of their time indoors especially in North America where it's cold majority of the time. Likely low diopter may not be a bad idea to wear for majority of time when doing activities indoor. My understanding is that wearing glasses for distances to do near distance activities could be harmful, just like reading a book or looking at computer screen with full strength prescription lenses. Since AF is considered voluntary that you can voluntarily control, then it should not be hard to do AF with extreme blur, you just make something very blurry less blurry. Why wouldn't AF work on extreme blur? I thought it was a process that you can control voluntarily where you can voluntarily bring things to a state of better focus, so in theory you should be able to bring slight blur to crisp clear and from extreme blur to less blur if you can truly control the ability to bring blurred things to focus, either way you are still able to exercise AF even with extreme blur

[@NataliaKarnaukh]

That's what bugs me! I can't make myself to wear normalized at home (small apartment). My differentials feel waaaày more relaxing, because I don't get that painful feeling when my eyes bump into objects that are too close even for my normalized prescription. I totally get this "don't reduce too much" thing but I prefer to trust my feelings. Also, I don't mind having 3, 4, 5 glasses. So that's probably the way I'll go.

[@Hizabrelshara]

How did it go ? Is it a successful approach? ​@@NataliaKarnaukh

[@NataliaKarnaukh]

@@Hizabrelshara I ended up wearing my most comfortable frame all the time that's 1 diopter weaker than my normalized. It's great for indoor use. It's also powerful enough for a sunny day outside. But when it's cloudy, getting dark, or I'm stressed, it feels too weak sometimes to read car plates or something. As for progress it's very slow. I don't think it's because of glasses, because I stopped doing active focus and even forget to take of my glasses for closeup work. Need to get back to good habits.

[@Hizabrelshara]

Lol your right about people wanting to go to the next lowest diopter. Thats me in a nutshell with this lol

[@kamarilia]

This is definitely true. First three months almost without glasses gave me -1. But last three month almost without glasses gave me nothing. Last prescription was -4,75/-5,25 - it is still the same. So now I am wearing glasses and try this way.

[@joystick396]

This works for contacts too, I had -2.00 left eye and -1.50 right eye. Went to -1.25 left eye and -1.00 right eye and now on my third pair (3 months) I see perfectly with this prescription. Vision without contacts has improved greatly too.

[@joystick396]

Jibon Sarkar I used to wear glasses all the time, now people never see me wearing glasses. I’m not sure what normalized glasses are?

[@irrelevance3859]

@Jibon Sarkar normalised should be your full prescription slightly underperscribed wear it for long distance. Depends on how bad your myopia is, when not looking long distance, wear differentials or no glasses (this depends on your myopia). To the endmyopia wiki and read the normalised and differential articles

I understand you're trying not to give out any crucial methods from your paid courses for free to just any stranger in your comment section begging. But I need help in this

[@greenlitlleman]

Most of the information is actually available for free. The paid course is more for those who need detailed step by step guidance. Get glasses for close up ( -1.5 from your prescription) and for distance (-0.5 from prescription) and do active focus for as much as you can. That's his method in a nutshell, you don't need to pay for it, lol.

@@Nilu846 Don't use glasses for close up work, be it reading or using any electronic devices. I would recommend you use reduced diopter glasses for driving at night, crossing the road etc. But, if I were you, I would not wear any glasses in the daytime when there's plenty of sunlight. Just spend plenty of time outdoors in sunlight. You already know the reason for your pseudomyopia: Too much close up during lockdown.

[@yosoy1loco]

Can you explain in what steps you reduce the values of your glasses when also a cylinder is involved. I got 3 glasses over 10 years and the values changed as if the optometrist used a dice. I admit i can see good with the last glasses, but since I'm wearing them it becomes ever harder to see without them. So ho do I challenged my eyes in the right manner, when I don't even know what to reduce and train step by step? Should I reduce the diopters of the sphere by 0.25-0.5, or by the Cylinder or by both? I have no idea what a "step" down is, when several components are involved.

I felt immediately relief after I take off glasses at all. Though everything are blurry, I do find it improves slowly. The only problem is that it is not convenient as you couldn’t see clearly when doing things without glasses. also you don’t have goal to achieve if drops your glasses completely or reduce too much power as Jake says. But I think it does improve even you not wear glasses at all.
