Editorial Reviews: Product Description These noted vision care specialists offer a unique eye care program that reflects the irrevocable link between a person's quality of vision and ability to understand, grow and change. In Greater Vision, they provide more than two dozen exercises to improve, heighten, and develop vision and describe the crucial part vision plays in creating emotional and spiritual clarity.

Customer Reviews: Very insightful about causes of eye problems April 20, 2008 Marilyn A. Evans (Vernon BC) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful I particularly liked the information about specific eye problems and how they are related emotionally. The exercises are excellent and each eye problem has exercises specifically for that problem A WASTE OF MONEY August 27, 2003 Black Griffin (New York, NY) 26 out of 31 found this review helpful This book is so general and sprawling it is useless. I went to the section on Presbyopia (Middle-Aged Eyes. It describes the condition (this I already know), says conventional medicine has no remedy other than glasses, says that "vision therapy has shown that people who perform simple focuing exercises experience a great benefit." But does he tell us what those exercises are? There is a general section on exercises. Are those the ones? Grossman's other book "Natural Eye Care: An Encyclopedia" is no better. Presbyopia does not even appear in the index! In "Greater Vision" Grossman takes up a lot of pages describing various Complementary Therapies, with a paragraph each on practices such as craniosacral therapy, the Alexander technique, yoga, meditation, etc. Okay, but I already know about these therapies, in fact have, at one time or another, partaken of all of the above. What I really need to know is which one is right for my condition? Grossman doesn't say. If you really want to improve your vision and read an altogether fascinating book (although with a terrible title), try Jacob Liberman's "Take Off Your Glasses and See." It is usefully informative, well-written, and full of some amazing insights about our culture and how our way of life contributes to vision problems. Beyond the E on the Chart January 6, 2003 13 out of 15 found this review helpful Dr. Grossman points out the vitality of vision in ways that no other eye doctor does. He brings together a Western approach to optometry along with Chinese medicine and psychology in this book. Easy to read, it proved to be an integral tool in helping me to better understand the relationship between eyesight and vision. Most importantly it gave me practical guidelines for looking at myself, others and the world around me in new ways. This book has 50 exercises for the eyes, the soul and the heart that will take you to ever-unfolding levels of seeing. Highly recommended for those of us who wish to see more clearly.
