Correcting vision by 0.25 dioptries a day...

i know someone who put the hot feeling on his heart and he got eaten by Cthulhu the next day. true story. he was also a reverse vampire.
 
There actually are contact lenses that gradually correct your vision - you wear them at night, and they reshape your cornea or something like that, and during the day your vision is fine.

I'm not sure if it's permanent or quite what. I know the contact lens people at my university were looking for volunteers for an experiment using the new lenses, and I looked into participating, but the whole thing seemed a little too untested for my taste.

Okay, I went to the URL above and copied/pasted as much of it into Babelfish as Babelfish would take, and here's what I got:

Thanks for posting the translation... however the massive paragraph is a little hard on the eyes. :wink:

WARNING:
There might be an exercise during which you'll have to create a warm/hot feeling somewhere in your body and move it around... remamber NEVER move this feeling close to or into your heart or brain.

Good Luck! [/B]

Personally I'm not yet very good at controlling this hot feeling. Has anyone been able to successfully move it to their loins? If it's worth the effort, I'll keep trying.
 
To keep your loins warm in the desert on a winter night:- Open 25kg bucket of sodium hydroxide.
Add 1 gallon water.
Allow to steam for a minute.
Replace lid (not tightly)
Sit on bucket.

True story.

I swear there is some sort of conspiracy going on to insert a simpsons reference into every single thread on the internet.

Then again, The Simpsons has tackled more issues than any other program that I can think of.

And I know a guy who made this hot feeling to his heart, the rate accelerated to about 85 and stayed so for a few days.
Also a true story...

Well, he should thank his lucky stars that his heart did not explode like my friend's head.

It's not permament, you have to wear them every night.

I managed to glean enough information from the text to do the exercises, and I moved the hot spot to my arse. You wouldn't believe what the result was, I cleared a room of people in under ten seconds.
True story.

All sorts of, even ones that are considered uncurable by modern medicine. It is more based one makeing the whole body healthy, then just getting rid of a certain diagnosis.

Sounds like homeopathy. Which of course is a fraud and cures nothing. Whatever you have heard is nonsense.

...With simple eye-exercises one can get about 0.25 dioptries a day.

Like if someone has his vision -3.5 , it would take him only two weeks to correct it

My vision is -8.5 in one eye and -9.0 in the other. So in 1.5 months I can have perfect vision? And I was getting ready to have lasik done... what a fool I am!

Out where I listen, several of the radio stations are airing commercials which claim something similar the 'See Clearly' method.

It's a series of exercises, apparently, that are supposedly able to give the users 20/20 or better vision without surgery or glasses.

I haven't looked deeply into it, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're similar to the exercises I performed as a child for lazy eye.

Ambliopia? Where the eyes don't focus on the same location? It must make stereoscopic vision hard.
I had a form of reading problem caused by my parents reading to me with everything upsidedown.
OHO

. . .If there are about 285 million people living in the US ( if I'm not misstaken with the statistics ) and at least 20% of them need glasses and spend 100$ on them every year, then it would be at least 5.7 billions for the glass-industry every year. Plus contact lenses, eye surgery, etc., etc.

Now imagine, are they interested in a program being revealed, that would make everybody's vision perfect? . . .

I would like to point out that optomerists may not particularly like this supposed progam, but on the other hand you don't see them going around and murdering ophthalmologist or fire bombing laser eye surgery clinics so if you start crying conspiracy I'm just going to laugh and walk away. As a matter of fact until you subject this set of procedures to a series of peer reviewed studies I'm just going to laugh and walk away.

Speaking of LASIK, I chickened out of eye surgery to correct my "horrible" eyesight. The clinic made the mistake of showing me a video of the procedure. I can't take a glaucoma test due to an uncontrollable flinch reflex and the final scene in "A Clockwork Orange" gives me the willies. Then they showed the speculum, and the scraping and AAAAGGGHHH! Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl.

Its amazing how Word doesn't know how to spell ophthalmologist but knows when I've spelt it wrong.

Maybe not a conspiracy :) , but at least don't expect them running around, popularizing something that would take their income away. Ask and ophtolmologist ( or how ever he spells ), who is trying to sell you a pair of glasses, maybe you should better make a surgery? Sure he will answer that you look perfect with this glasses and don't need any kind of surgery that will probably make things only worth ;) .

Of cource you can laugh and walk away, but on the other side, if you want to correct your eyesight, why not to try this exercises for a few days and see for yourself if there are any results?

Sounds like homeopathy. Which of course is a fraud and cures nothing.

While I did not try out homeopathy myself, I heard rather positive reviews about it. I do believe that if you want to call it a fraud, you at least should try to cure something with it first.


Good Luck :rub: !

Not Amblyopia - I'm going by the vague memories of my 8 or 9 year old self, thirty years on. It started with an 'E', actually, and just meant that my eyes were lazy - not focusing properly, but due mostly to lack of exercise.

Or, you could just look at data gathered in well-designed experiments.

Nah. Silly concept.

To my believe, all experiments show, in one way or another, what the experimentor is expecting. So if this experiment was held by Randi, no surprise about the negative results.

For example, I do know a doctor who is giving homeopathic medicine to his patients, with very good results.

While there also is a believe that every ilness is caused by a wrong behavior. Like if someone has hemoroids, he obviously also has a hemoroidal behavior :a2: :nope: and no medicine would have good and permanent results, unless he changes his behavior.


Thanx ;)

It is addressed here (oddly enough, one of the Google sponsors that pops up when you do a search on "See Clearly Now"):
http://www.allaboutvision.com/buysmart/see_clearly.htm

By the way, I am very nearsighted and have astigmatism. When I first tried to get contact lenses, I was told that they would not correct the severe astigmatism because it was not on the surface of my eye. I was finally able to get contacts when the technology permitted soft toric contacts that were weighted to keep them aligned. I hated them... I much prefer the new lightweight plastic lenses in rimless glasses.

By the way... I know at least two people who have gotton the LASIK surgery. They now have to wear reading glasses because the surgery does nothing for age related presbyopia.
