New, larger format -- even easier to read! -- edition of this classic self-help health title. Still includes the pull out chart. The original Bates Method book was a classic -- but in a tiny little A format and with a Victorian looking design that was hard to read -- and in much need of updating for today's market. So the new edition has an increased the page size and a clear, modern design that's easy to read and follow.
The rationale behind the Bates Method is that if you wear glasses or contact lenses, chances are you don't really need to. Prescription lenses act as a prop for the eye muscles so over time the eyes actually get weaker. In the long term, glasses will only ever weaken the eyes.

The Bates Method restores sight firstly with a series of exercises that relax and soothe the eye muscles -- the equivalent of massaging away tension build up -- and secondly retrains the relaxed eyes to focus effectively. The exercises are straightforward and easy to incorporate into daily life.
This book is rather heavy-going at first, and it took me a while to get the hang of some of the exercises. Once I started doing them correctly, however, I did notice a marked improvement in my vision. Slight, but noticeable. If performed regularly every day, I probably could improve my vision to near-normal.
The author challenges the orthodox concept of accomodation (your eyes' ability to focus correctly) and the proof that his theory is correct is that it does actually work. The theory is this. Your eyes shouldn't be *trying* to see, they just should. As he says, your senses can not act themselves, they are to be acted upon. As soon as your eyes make an effort to see, your eyesight begins to deteriorate. Any eyestrain, therefore, is a result of mental strain.
He cites the example of a young girl who had a keen interest in astronomy. She could see the moons of Jupiter with her unaided eye, yet ask her to look at some maths sums on a blackboard just a few metres away, and she became myopic. This is because maths was disagreeble to her. This caused mental strain for her, which in turn caused eye strain and hence reduced vision.

Myopia becomes a problem due to strain on the eyes, pressure, anxiety, or frustration. The pressure young children have to succeed is enormous.
Near-sightedness can also be contributed to mental strain and psychological issue. Myopia can be part of an anxiety or nervousness about the future.
Presbyopia is the ability to see things in the distant but not things close up.
Presbyopia can also be all in the mind'. People start to look too far to the future and refuse to look at things right in front of them. They allow their focus to be on retirement instead of on fixing the leaking faucet today.
Both these ailments can be avoided by allowing the eyes to move around naturally each day. If you are studying something up close for most of the day, spend an hour or so looking at things in the distance. If you are looking at things far away grab a book and read some pages.
