The #1 Biggest Lie/Myth About Myopia - Vision Therapy

[@savvasgamingchannel5062]

If you have myopia, your eye is not broken. Your eye has adjusted to the environment you have put your eye into. If you have been reading close up or watching screens close up for hours on end for many years, your eye has adapted to that by lengthening causing myopia. So, if you want to reduce myopia you need to reverse the cause of your myopia. You need to unwind the distance you look at things and reduce the strength of your glasses gradually. Also going outside for at least 2 hours a day to stare at faraway objects will cause your eye to reduce in length which is the reduction of your myopia.

[@otiebrown9999]

Perhaps the biggest lie, is that myopia, can not be prevented when at 20/50. Julie, I totally support your efforts! It is also true, that the person must make a major effort - for his own recovery. Without that personal commitment, recovery can not exist.

This is true, but even this therapy can't fix astigmatism I don't believe.

Where do you draw the line? Lie or truth. Is prevention possible, when at 20/40. Would you be willing to try? I would .

[@otiebrown9999]

Not telling the truth about myopia prevention, is a, "way of life", for many people.

[@visontherapy]

Interesting Otie. Does that way of life include atropine?

[@otiebrown9999]

@@visontherapy It includes my respecting an Optometrist Jake Raphaelson helping his three kids with life time prevention. He had them wearing a +2 D for all close work, while they still had almost 20/20. I see that parental devotion as the only reasonable solution.

After reading the ATOM 1 and 2 studies we will not be giving this poison to our blue eyed child(since the studies were only on dark eyed children and he already stays dilated for 2 1/2 days from typical drops). No ricks of “losing his mind” from literal deadly nightshade.

Hi there, I am not a research scientist and frankly have no time or desire to do that with over 200 patients to deal with each day, staff and a family. The proof is in the hundreds and hundreds of testimonials and case reviews from real people on here on KZbin and weekly to people on our email list. If that isn't satisfactory, then that's okay! Thanks for being here. PS: Most of the patients we work with are often also evaluated by other doctors, so it's pretty obvious that the outcome is indeed validated.

[@BuildTimeMC]

Look up endmyopia, they use a similar method and they have a ton of information about it available for free on KZbin and the endmyopia wiki

can we at least reduce my myopia?

Hi Harry, the point of the video is that YES we can!

[@HARRY-gw4ze]

can I use atropine as adult and it would be good for me?

[@Kevin.Anthony3]

​@@HARRY-gw4zeBrilliant question. I've been told that it will make vision more blurry while it restores the iris. I hope all with Myopia are doing okay.,🙏🏿

My friend mentioned something about orthokeratology (special contact lenses worn at night temporarily reshapes the cornea). Is that true?

[@simplyserge144]

How long did it take for your clients to reduce their myopia?

[@Rccr6554]

Our daughter was recently diagnosed with myopia at age 4. We are told her vision is 20/40 in both eyes, but her prescription seems so high: -2.5 and -1.5. I am baffled at how high they are starting her. Can you help a child who is so young?

[@visontherapy]

Yes have a special and highest effective approach for infants and toddlers.

Ad for business that promises to help 98% of people get rid of their glasses, delivered by owner of the business…who STILL WEARS GLASSES! 🤔

[@visontherapy]

Hi John, you may appear to be right at first glance but actually you are not. What you do not know is what prescription she is wearing, why it is so where it was to begin with, or why she still chooses to wear the one she has on. It also does not negate the hundreds of people who have been not only able to get off the escalator of ever-increasing lens prescriptions, but also successfully reverse what most docs think is only a one way street. But hey at least it got your attention. Thanks for being here!

[@bittertruth5540]

Lol

[@gaynzz6841]

I didn't hear her say anything about "getting rid of glasses". She said that most people can likely reverse a big **part** of their myopia. She might have had -6.00 diopters, and maybe now she is wearing -3.00 glasses. That would be an absolutely immense progress. And yes, she has a job, she is an OD. She has to pay bills and buy food, like everyone else. I would rather an OD would sell me a program that reduces my lens dependence, instead of "prescribing" me stronger and stronger minus glasses for 600 dollars each. Please listen again - otherwise just keep watching your favorite LASIK channel.

[@otiebrown9999]

@@gaynzz6841 Hi Gayn, That was the exact lesson LEARNED from Raphaelson. (Who was myopic). He helped his 3 kids go from 20/50 to 20/20, because he could force LONG TERM PLUS lens wearing on them. Same is true about Jeff and Rupa Wong.

My 8 year old son has 20/40 vision. Can you help him get 20/20 vision or better?

[@visontherapy]

@@adrianb6754 Hi Adrian, we have helped others achieve this outcome but it’s not wise (it’s healthcare) to say this will be exactly what will happen for him although there is a high probability.

[@RAVETOR]

@@visontherapy What's the point of reversing myopia if you only can reverse like 2-3 diopters and never go to fully 20/20 vision?

[@visontherapy]

@@RAVETOR many people want to have less of a need for dependency on glasses and contacts and depending on their prescription, they may be thrilled if it’s reduced by half. Some people do get 20/20 acuity. But, frankly there isn’t really a scenario I see where better vision is not a better option.

[@otiebrown9999]

Hi Julie, That is truly an incredibly difficult subject. I have argued that we be given a choice when we can still read the 20/50 line (self measured, -0.75 Diopters). Then, I highly motivated pilot, could slowly get his refraction to change from -0.75 D, to +0.25 Diopters. The problem is that this is long term plus lens wearing, always during the school years. That is what I am doing now. You have my support!

[@visontherapy]

Hi Otie, not sure what pilot you speak of. But it appears that our approach is different as are our clinic's and patient results.
