Most of the things that Dr. Bates talks about are completely lost on today's average opthamologist (or my doctor anyway). It is good to get some research from another source, and not feel so dependant on the current methods, which seem to require that my vision keep getting worse, until I get some disease that requires surgery, and all at a great cost to me. While sufficiently technical and specific regarding questions of the eye's construction and abnormalities due to strain, Dr. Bates' book is most clearly written and I have recommended it to a few friends.

Bates, who once practiced traditional ophthalmology and held in high esteem by his collegues, eventually rejected the theories that the traditional eyecare community accepted as fact. After observations that led him to question some of the commonly held beliefs in ophthalmology and medical science in general, he began many years of experimental work and eventually had to conclude that the orthodox theories regarding the eye and sight were wrong. He taught patients with all sorts of vision and eye troubles how to cure their poor sight by the use of the mind and relaxation.

Unfortunately for the world, Bates's work was generally ignored by the medical establishment and still is today, for numerous reasons. There are still many teachers of his methods throughout the world who are constantly helping people to cure their imperfect sight. They and many of their students have experienced how effective it is. I myself am not a (trained) teacher of the Bates Method, but practicing it has provided enormous benefit for my vision and mind.

If you can't obtain this book here, it is always available from the publisher[...], as it has been republished and is in print.

If you get this book, read it extremely carefully. The simple language belies a drastically different way of thinking than most people in our society are used to.
