So, let’s get to the bottom of this; are eye exercises to improve vision shenanigans? Are people like me trying to scam you out of your hard earned money, or are optometrists scared to lose customers?

Eye Exercises To Improve Vision – Am I A Thief?

Most optometrists, opticians, or eye surgeons will tell you that I am. They claim eye exercises to improve vision don’t work, can’t work, and then give you a whole bunch of technically sounding stuff that confuses you.

Let’s check the facts:

Glasses and contact don’t improve your vision for sure. We discussed that. If they did, you would get weaker glasses with each eye test.

Eye surgery doesn’t last, which is why optometrists and opticians don’t mind to tell you about it. They know that you’ll come back, it’s just a matter of time. But they also know that eye surgeons will refer them back, after they got their chunk of your hard earned money.

Eye Exercises To Improve Vision –The Facts

Leaves us with checking the facts for eye exercises to improve vision. I won’t bother you with the theory how they work, just read the previous 2 articles in this series about eye exercises to improve vision.

Fact is that there are 6 eye muscles, most of them on the outside of the eyeball, not near the lens. Check the image.

Most optometrist will claim that eye exercises to improve vision are all shenanigans. But is that really the case, or

These eye muscles keep the eyeball in its natural round, neutral shape. These muscles must do something, and if they are well balance, strong enough, but also able to relax correctly, we have healthy vision. Eye exercises to improve vision do exactly that.

Eye Exercises To Improve Vision – The Research

Eye “specialist” will claim that there is no scientific proof that eye exercises to improve vision exists. That’s not true:

  1. Bates researched and documented eye exercises to improve vision with many patients about eye “specialist” just don’t accept that research
  2. There is not one single research study that proves eye exercises to improve vision do not work
  3. In 1986 research by Petito and Suchoff proved that Symptoms were totally eliminated in 53% of the patients, reduced in 43% and remained the same in only 4% with eye exercises to improve vision. The study was published in the Journal of the American Optometry Association

How about eye surgery…

Fact is, there is no long-term data for eye surgery available whatsoever. Because of that the FDA is investigating eye surgery in regards to the long-term effects because they fear false claims.

Eye Exercises To Improve Vision – Shenanigans Or Not?

You have to make up your mind what and who you believe. The Catholic church had us believe that the earth is flat until the early 1900’s. Just to maintain power.

Does the ophthalmic industry do the same to stay profitable? It makes damn good money to sell glasses and eye surgery equipment. And quick fixes are much easier to sell than cures that need implementation, like eye exercises to improve vision.

Facts are also that eye surgery is $1,000 - $2,500 per eye, and often doesn’t last. Glasses are $120 per year for the average person. If you read this, you probably spend more…

Yes, health insurance pays for them in some cases, but you know that you pay extra for that, don’t you. They won’t take a loss on it. Insurance companies are very profitable.
