A bit of wisdom from Dr. Bates...SHIFTING OF THE EYE

SECOND GOOD VISION HABIT: SHIFTING OF THE EYE... (I like this one:)



...The shifting of the eye with normal vision is usually not conspicuous, but by direct examination with the ophthalmoscope it can always be demonstrated. If one eye is examined with this instrument while the other is regarding a small area straight ahead, the eye being examined, which follows the movements of the other, is seen to move in various directions, from side to side, up and down in an orbit which is usually variable. If the vision is normal these movements are extremely rapid and unaccompanied by any appearance of effort. The shifting of the eye with imperfect sight, on the contrary, is slower, its excursions are wider, and the movements are jerky and made with apparent effort...


...The shorter the shift the greater the benefit; but even a very long shift - as much as three feet or more - is a help to those who cannot accomplish a shorter one. When the patient is capable of a short shift, on the contrary, the long shift lowers the vision...

...One of the best methods of improving the sight, is to imitate consciously the unconscious shifting of normal vision and to realize the apparent motion produced by such shifting...                        Perfect sight is impossible without continual shifting, and such shifting is a striking illustration of the mental control necessary for normal vision. It requires perfect mental control to think of thousands of things in a fraction of a second; and each point of fixation has to be thought of separately, because it is impossible to think of two things, or of two parts of one thing, perfectly at the same time. The eye with imperfect sight tries to accomplish the impossible by looking fixedly at one point for an appreciable length of time; that is, by staring. When it looks at a strange letter and does not see it, it keeps on looking at it in an effort to see it better. Such efforts always fail, and are an important factor in the production of imperfect sight...

Living in a box

   In addition to discussion about using your eyes, let's ask why is in recent times the need for wearing glasses so much increased? Why is that our grand and grand grand -mums and -dads didn't need so much glasses didn't need so much glasses as we do today.

Use it or lose it

   Take it this way: if you don't use your eyes, then they can't develop, if talking about early years, or they will deteriorate.
   It is the same as with any other part and organ in our body. Look for example in muscles training. If you want to have strong and pumped up muscles then you don't sleep or watch the TV all day long, but you go in gym to exercise the muscles, those you want to develop. If you want to make stronger arm muscles you would lift weights. Meaning you regularly use those muscles, activate them, you repeat these operations, and as the time goes - what happens - they became stronger, nicely formed, etc...

Check Your Feelings and Thoughts

Natural Vision Improvemnt is supporting standing that reason for function vision problems is in stress and strain. Strees is condition produced by many negative feelings we have on more permannet basis, so therefore in most cases we are not even aware of it. Eventually, we consider our stressed state as normal and in that case is very hard to release that stress aNatural Vision Improvement is supporting standing that reason for function vision problems is in stress and strain.

3Cups Accommodation Exercise - Part2

There is a good reason I find this exercise important. And that explains how is it possible that after a set of say 30 or 50 moves I see clearer and when I look around the colors are stronger, there is more shine and of course clarity.
It is because these exercises are forcing us to do consciously

Natural Vision Improvement

Did you know that you do not have to wear glasses if you have poor vision?
Just a couple of years ago I didn’t as well and was wearing glasses and contact lenses for 33 years. But after I found out about Natural Vision Improvement I said NO to glasses and started the efforts to improve my eyesight naturally.

What did I achieve, you would ask. Well, after a year I did an eye test for driving at my driving authorities and I passed. They removed my condition for aided vision from driving license and I am not required by law to wear glasses meaning I have good enough vision for driving.

Why did nobody tell me before?
Well, I have heard on a few occasions before throughout my life about natural vision improvement (I like to use the NVI abbreviation for this term), but have totally ignored it. You know how the world mostly is, the knowledge about any natural healing is limited, it is being ignored and mostly respected are highly educated professionals, among them optometrists, and I would rather be shoulder to shoulder with them and follow what they recommend and all is scientifically rpoved. But, also nowhere near me was there anyone with knowledge or experience in NVI, so it’s normal I had been “happily ” wearing my glasses and feeling very cool about it.
