Important VISION Question Improvement?

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009
Bill C asked:


Can Myopia be reversed? The reason I am asking is because a close friend of my sisters who is 24 now and has been wearing glasses since she was 10 has moved from a -4.00 prescription to a negative -1.50 within the past year and a half

She said she has not done anything special, her glasses just kept feeling too strong, she went back to the optometrist and her prescription went down.

How is this possible, I thought that once your eye elongates it cant go back but apparently it is happening to my sister’s friend…

I asked my optometrist, he said he sees it relatively often but doesn’t really know why it happens…

my moms friend who is 36 has also recently had a prescription drop, not as severe just 1.5 diopters and has also done nothing

I want to recreate this effect for myself, im only -1.75 how could I do this!?

Thank all!

Paul

jose_almeida@sbcglobal.net asked:


ok so i wear glasses.ive been wearing glasses ever since i was 8 and im now 16. i realy dont like glasses because they are very annoying and i misplace them all the time. i dont know about contacts, but i have allergies and they seem annoying and uncomfortable. ive heard about lasik but its very expensive and they say it only lasts about 5 years. Latley i have been reasearching natural vision inmporvment and the bates method and everything in between.Many people might not believe in “natural vision improvement” , but i think that i might give it a shot, but im not sure….I ABSOLUTLY HATE GLASSES!! lol…..so does anybody have any tips or suggessions??
thank you.

in goindg to the eye doctors, the opt fround drusen in the back of my macula though did not exactly diagnose me with having degeneration–though i was run through the tests associated with. curious if vision loss for a 30y/o will continue–or is there a chance for improvement–and how?
