Most people with eye problems who have asked their optometrist about eye exercises to improve vision get the answer that it’s all shenanigans. But is that really the case, or is the optometrist worried about losing a customer?
Most optometrist, when they are asked about eye exercises to improve vision, claim that these don’t work. According to eye specialists in the conventional sense they can’t improve a person’s vision because according to their theory, the eyesight is only depended on the shape of the lens.
Eye exercises to improve vision on the other hand are based on the theory that the shape of the eyeball directly influences the shape of the lens.
“Fact is, there are 6 eye muscles. 4 of them keep the eyeball in its natural round shape, if these muscles are well balanced, strong enough, and know how to relax properly”, natural vision improvement expert Evgania Mehler explains.
“Unfortunately the ophthalmic industry believes in the older of two theories, the one that was developed by a physicist Herman Helmholtz, not by one of their own. Dr Bates, an eye specialist who lived around the turn of last century, discovered that the eye muscles influence the shape of the eyeball, which is mostly filled with liquid, and in turn determines the shape of the lens. Therefore balancing the eye muscles through the right type of eye exercises actually improves the eyesight”, Evgania elaborates.
What Dr Bates has proven scientifically, but what is withheld by the ophthalmic industry, is that only correcting eye problems with the lenses, will never improve one’s eyesight. If it would, people would get weaker glasses, but that’s almost never heard of.
So why do the so-called eye specialist deny the effectiveness of eye exercises to improve vision, when the the theory clearly indicates that natural vision improvement seems to be the more sensible approach?
Some people claim it has to do with the fact that the ophthalmic industry rags up an estimated $30 billion per year in the US alone. Even though they are only treating symptoms, but not the cause of the eye problem.
Natural vision improvement and eye exercises to improve vision are relatively inexpensive, ranging from around $30 – $400, depending on the effectiveness of the method.
“Most eye exercises methods are based on the Bates method only, which is better than anything eye specialists have to offer, but it focuses to closely on working only on the eye muscles and the shape of the eyeball. There is another layer above, which are the psychological factors, and the factors in the rest of the body that also affect the vision of a person”, Evgania Mehler describes.
“In the whole bodily system all organs are inter-connected. So the eye must be treated with the whole body in mind. The Bates method is a great start, but it doesn’t go deep enough, and too many people complain about headaches, which derive from treating the eyes as separate. After all Dr William Bates was the pioneer for eye exercises to improve vision in the Western world, but a lot more research has been done in the last 100 years”, Evgania concludes.
So are eye exercises and natural vision improvement shenanigans, or an effective method for better eyesight without glasses? It all comes down to the attitude and expectations of a person. For people looking for a “quick fix” they could be take too long, but for someone who truly wants better eyesight without glasses long-term, they could be just the right remedy.
