The Jake Origin Story: I grew up with glasses, 5.00 diopter high myopia, and yet today have 20/20 natural eyesight. No surgery, no glasses, I figured out how myopia actually works and how to reverse it (and no, not eye exercises!) The mainstream tells you it's impossible - but the whole concept that myopia is an illness, is complete unscientific nonsense (a 100 billion dollar a year profitable nonsense, though).

Jake Steiner Hi jake can i use reduce lens method with contact lenses?
Yes. Have a look at the Facebook page. comments. There's recent posts about this.
Jake I have a -3 diopters eyesight but I want to get a reading glasses to wear in front of my contact lenses for closed up work(computer screen), may I know if getting a +1 diopter reading glasses is enough for me to work comfortably or would you recommend a +1.5 dioptre reading glasses instead?
For years i thought wearing glasses will improve my vision but really it just enhances vision while im wearing it.
Diamond Emerald same here

Wait, you thought if you wore your glasses for however many months or years then you suddenly wouldn't need them anymore?
@@nowandaround312 I thought that...
... that's no one's fault but yours.
Okay, I think I know what you were trying to say, but never quite said ...
If you just throw away your glasses things may be quite blurry. If it's too blurry then your eyes will have a hard time figuring out which way to go to correct. Confusion.
Instead, if you get glasses that are a little weaker than normal then your eyes will be able to tell which way to go to correct. And you can hopefully train them to focus with the weaker glasses.
Then you'll probably need another pair just a little weaker ... and so on.
Thanks.
Right on, Richard. Thanks for translating the rambles! :)
@@Dott.EmilianEpure I have -2,75 and I can see on computer monitor without glasses if I lower the screen resolution. Still, not sure if I should wear glasses, even lower strength one....
Pretty much. But it depends on your prescription too, I think -2.00 and higher can get away with only using glasses when necessary. But beyond that should probably use reduced lens therapy.
Could also depend on conditions though I think -3.50 and higher can get away with not using glasses outside in sunlight.
Richard F thanks for this
Did you try active focus? Did it help
But I have -6.75 in both eyes and I stopped wearing my glasses and my sight improved greatly…. But I still wear them when I drive or whatever I might need to see to avoid danger.
whats the prescription now and after how long?
Please sir give reply
Yea share your story
But maybe he‘s dead cuz he couldn’t see while driving
put aside those glasses as much as you can. only wear them when you really need it, e.g. driving car, looking up words on the class board. expose your eyes to sun light, e.g. sitting on verandah, taking a walk. keep your myopia low (less than -3 D). you will have perfect-sight eyes when you are old due to presbyopia process. that's what happened to my dad.
Merry Adhadi how many years did it take for perfection?
My eye power is - 4.75 each eye... Will this work
so he was able to see far away without doing any improvements? just by the eye shortening over time?
i thought i have bad eyesight when i removed my glasses i actually have pretty good eyesight I still can read and im almost on my 3rd month not wearing glasses and im pretty improving
My myopia is getting worse and my glasses is just making me sick
Great job! This is essential information and you are the only one providing it. Thank you!
+MICHAEL KRAMER Thanks Mike!
If one keep wearing glasses.. the muscle strain will be permanent and further increase
Yea I wear glasses 24/7 now I stopped wearing them but I use them for outside activities
but diopters will reduce gradually that's not bad idea
@@tkhankhoje39 it won't
@@HeistTime be natural no glasses
@@tkhankhoje39 How? Do you you know how eyes adjust focus when your lens are not working well..
Thanks for making these videos, Jake!
I’m at -1.25 which already pretty low myopia. I’ve stopped wearing my glasses cold turkey and I keep having flashes of perfect crystal clear vision and it’s happening more and more frequently
Krishal Pandey I’ve started plus lens therapy about a month ago as well, working very well for me. I’m close to perfect vision now. The other day my roommate (who has naturally perfect eyesight) was surprised when I was able to read fine print on a shop door from across the street without glasses or contacts
Did you reduce your prescription little by little, or did you just stop wearing your glasses as much?
@@mustardbeard170 just stopped wearing glasses. My prescription was already so small that dropping wouldn’t do much. My vision with and without glasses was never drastically different. Prescription dropping is for people with more severe nearsightedness
@@joystick396 I'm at -1.25 too but without glasses I can't see a licence plate at 20m unless doing active focus. Don't understand how you could say wearing them made no difference at that diopter
@@thestuff4321 didn’t say there’s no difference, there’s little difference. I only notice it when I look away at objects at large distances (over 100ft or 30m) it becomes slightly fuzzy. Also found out I’m over prescribed, my eyes are better than -1.25 I had another eye clinic tell me I’m actually around -0.75
It has been three months since I stopped wearing my glasses. I didn't put them on, not even once. The reason is I want to restore my eyesight.
Recently, I went for eye check-up. My eye sight has improved slightly from - 2.75 to - 2.25.
Any update ?
Any update?
The only time you should put them aside is when you can already see well up-close.
i'd say when ur at -2 to -3 diopter u can put em away
@@surf_machine I am -2.75 + 1.50 and -2.2 +1.50 when should I take them off?
@@oboy2.077 hi! I'm at around -4.5 diopters (according to the centimeter chart) but my glasses have lower prescription, objects far away are slightly blurry. I stopped wearing glasses at home due to the pandemic and managed with close up screen work fine, but my prescription probably increased as at one point I started wearing glasses for close up work (I think axial elongation occurred). Since I realised that happened, I stopped wearing glasses again. I'm still at home most of the time, what would you recommend doing? I wear my glasses only when I watch the television.... Should I wear my glasses for when I'm travelling in a car, looking outside etc? I'M SO SORRY FOR THE LONG REPLY I'M STILL A LITTLE CONFUSED
@@oboy2.077 Yes, when I go for walks I wear my glasses (far objects are still somewhat blurry), I don't necessarily use my glasses at home since I know where everything is haha! I'm actually unsure of what my current prescription is... according to the centimeter measurements my right eye is -4.5 and left eye is around -5. I work up close quite alot (studying, classes etc)... and I did the 7 day guide and am a little unsure on how to proceed. I try to look afar after doing up close work for a long time, I look far away (about 10-15 feet away without my glasses, would you recommend doing this with or without my glasses?). I'M SO SORRY I'M WRITING SO MUCH
@@oboy2.077 Due to the covid situation I can't go to the doctor to officially see what prescription my eyes have at the moment, the last time I visited the doctor was about three years ago... If my eyes do get better how would you recommend adjusting my glasses? Will I understand my eyes have improved when I can see crystal clear with my current glasses?
Thanks! This gives an explanation to something that I observed myself going completely without glasses the past year +. I was trying to explain to a friend that instead of things gradually becoming blurry into the distance, it seemed more that there was a clear zone that abruptly ends and didn't know why or if that was normal or not. It's kinda neat to have an explanation/confirmation of what I was experiencing. While I'm now learning that it wasn't so great to just go without glasses (I was determined and willing to sacrifice though most people thought I was completely nuts. :P), I think it's still been a helpful experience in a small way. If I can put up with "living in the blur", I think the rest of your program will be easier in comparison and it has already given me some of the consciousness that you talk about of what's going on with my eyes like noticing when I'm seeing better/straining etc. Excited now to really have a clearer plan for improvement and know what to expect!
I stopped wearing glasses and my vision was bad and my head started to hurt
Just discovered your channel. Starting my journey to improved eye health & vision. Started reading a book by Meir Schneider. Started to do exercises. My right eye muscles started to twitch sometimes (intermittent) just as I'm wanting to improve my eyesight. How annoying. Pretty sure it will resolve itself. Anyways, will be learning & watching your videos. It's a good video.
Update?
I use my lens all day bt day by day my eyes are becoming poor it increases from 3.25 to 4.00 in some few month pls pls help me how to get relief from this glass pls
You didn t really answer the question.
Jake,I have -1.5 and 2.0 in my eyes and I hate wearing glasses..what should I do?help me🤧
I'm legally blind, and I sometimes take off my glasses but taking them off for too long makes my eyes go tired and it created this weird sort of goo come out my eyes.
I am short sighted but my job only requires me to me able to see a computer screen in front on me. I have no problem seeing the screen. Do I need to wear my prescription?
Hi sir,I would like to know whether wearing my glasses (having myopia) for reading books near by,that I can see without it.Help me
Sir I had a power of -6.00 but for 1 year I didn't get my checkup and it rose to -8.00, sir what to do?
Hello and thank you for the video again. This is all very helpful.
I am still looking for where do you write or say, up to what degree of visual acuity ideally new normalized glasses should allow one to see?
i.e. Maybe up to 20/40 so one can drive but still have some distant blur to be able to practice active focus to improve vision?
Or rather 20/50 or less (20/60) for those who don't drive for example, so there is a closer blur to practice active focus and have more room for improvement until the next new normalized?
Is there a recommended number for that? Or is i justt up to each person to decide as to how far they want/need their blur horizon to be?
I do make somany exercises and after wearing glasses It feels like i have lost what have i done
It happens same with me
I don’t agree. I wore glasses before and my eyesight got worse & worse every year to the point I could barely see without my glasses. I got LASIK & I was 20/20 after. 10 years later, my myopia came back. I think what I need is to learn to relax my eyes. I feel that my vision gets better once that’s achieved.
Lasik may give you 20/20 but by doing horrible things to your eye
So is it better to wear glasses that give you almost perfect vision rather than no glasses?
Would not wearing glasses prevent my eyes from getting better?
My prescription glasses are too strong and I hate wearing these really strong glasses because it gives me headaches and I don’t need them all the time and one time I broke my glasses and I had to wait for 2 weeks and my eye sight got a lot better even the opititions said then I started wearing my glasses again and my eyes got worse
That's not true. My mother don't wear glasses despite having -1.5 in both eyes since as a kid. She even told me the blurriness heals in time. She drives at night without glasses
Very helpful. As always very informational and easy to understand. Thank you for everything you do Jake.

Hey, bud, I have a question for like when I am at work. I work in a foundry 8 hours a day six days a week so should I just wear a reduced prescription all day while at work or what?
Jake, I've tested my eyesight through the centimetre calculator on the website and according to it I should be wearing lenses with around 2.0 D and I'm currently wearing glasses with 1.0/1.25 D. Should I get a higher prescription or is this fine to get my vision back on track?
I didn't wear glasses for few months and my vision improved so I don't totally agree. Also myopia is worsened by wearing glasses, you also talked about glasses induced myopia, so you seem to be contradicting yourself. You can do AF short distance so you don't necessarily need glasses to do AF if that's the reason for wearing glasses in the first place
Wow for making it through that cringe fest of my early video. 😉 And yes you can improve the hard way, as long as the stimulus is there. But why give up good vision while doing it?
@@endmyopia sorry for sounding like a critic. You can tell I enjoy your videos. I will finish watching all your videos soon, hopefully I will learn. I am just a critical person but I must also be flexible and accepting. I know if I don't follow your advice I will suffer
Completely agree.
what if,for a person with -3 lens found a way
to relax his eye muscles but he cannot retain his elongated eye like that of a normal once eyes
Love it! Thank you for your time
Hey jake, thanks for giving back my eye! 😍😍😍
Someone who already reverted their vision please tell me how to do it. I'm sick of reading articles and watching videos explaining how my eye and myopia works. I just want to know what I should do now.
#readingsucksballs
What do I do in cases where I can’t get lowered description glasses and can’t order online?
@Jakesteiner I lost my glasses. Like literally I was driving with my glasses then I made a delivery, but when I got in my car I didn't have my glasses. Where do you go to get glasses that have a weaker perscription?
Optometrist said i need to wear my glasses at all time. +1.00 both OD and OS. Do I really need it?
last year i went to optometrist and he told me i have -5,25 both eyes, while for me with my -5 lenses I already see and have even headache too, reason why since years I wear contact lenses at -4.75 and when I use computer I guess I use glasses -2 . So I would just like to know, how can I improve and stop to wear -5 glasses and maybe gain some diopters back? am i doing it right?
Hey I'm wearing glasses for a month now and idk why but when I take them of I feel like my eysight is so much worse that it was,but my doctor told me that maybe I can take them off if my eyesight gets better ..is that possible?
Does it harm your eye if you use your maximum degree? Because when I wear my maximum degree, my head starts getting dizzy.
But does not wearing your glasses worsens ur vision in the long term or just temporary
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us
I dont understand why to wear less power? It causes headache
So if you wear a -4.00 to drive and function outside, maybe it'd be a good idea to have a pair of glasses that are -2.75 to function in the house?
I have such glasses for home. I live in a small apartment, and everything I see at home is closer than 20 feet, so I have no need in full strength glasses to wash my dishes or cook or clean.
So I should wear glasses only when I need them and not all the time???
Do I wear my glasses all the time or only when I need them
I have - 1 in left eye and- 0.5 in right eye.Do I need to wear glasses or how often I need to wear.
Thanks for the video , very informative , i have a power of plus 1 , my doc has advised me to wear the glasses all the time , But my vision without the glasses is as good as with the glasses , and i feel more comfortable without the glasses .. in my case do i really have to wear glasses?? i work on my computer for 6 to 8 hours a day but i take frequent breaks and also follow the 20-20 rule
When I am not wearing glasses then I have flashes of light?
I have -.25d sph and CYL -.25d axis 30° in right eye and -.50d sph with -.25d CYL axis 160° in left. should I wear glasses ? and how to improve my left eye ? my right eye is improved but left is not. I don't know what to do plz help.
One question... the eye charts that you've given in your website.. should I print then on an A4 sized paper? I mean isnt it too small?
sir..i have cylindical power of -1 in each eye and spherical power of - 0.25D..is it dangerous or normal and how it ll b reduced??
shud i use glasses all day..
are there lenses for cylindrical power to give a try....
I have -0.25 myopia though, so not wearing glasses is fine right?
What's the error between different optometry machines? If it's a different brand or a different method of measurement or a different light in the room, will it influence the number of diopters? Also, how precise are they? Did anyone try to check their vision in different optometry offices on the same day?
The only precise way is you trying on different diopters in real world scenarios. :)
I'm a volleyball player and i wear -5.5 and -5.75 spectacles. I can see a bit . Should i play without glasses .becoz there's always a fear that the ball will have spiked on my face and it'll hurt double coz of specs.
Been with endmyopia for about 3 months now, managed to drop my astigmatism and then my myopia by a diopter. Still building those habits though, not quite habitual.
+WakeN' Blake Habits, super key. Remember, a diopter a year ... it's auto pilot easy if you've got habits.
Blake Slack any updates?
Did you reduce your prescription slowly or did you stop wearing glasses as much?
I have 2.5 in left eye... And 0.5 in right ... Doctors said..Your left eye became lazy.. but when I see through both eye .. i can see clearly what to doo any suggestion
I have -0.5 cyl -0.5sph in right and -0.5sph in left. I do not use glasses. Due to very low number in left. Left eye work more than right. So i have decided that i sould have glasses with -0.5cyl in right and no number or simple glass on left. If I need to drive at night, I will wear 6/6 vision glasses.
i have -3 shall i go for contact lens of -2 or wear spectacles
how about dial vision adjustable lens eye glasses are they good for gradually reducing
so
i have to make active focus my habit and practice it
while keeping my glasses on
and i want to avoid perfect vision with glasses right?
so my eyes need 3 diopter glasses
i will use 2.5 for outside
maybe 1 for computer work and tv
to maintain that range of blur for active focus and improvement
did i get that right? tell me please!
Did ure eyes got better ?
If i keep wearing glasses. it will screw my eyes even more.....
not wearing glasses would be like lifting the heaviest weight in a gym.
impossible
1) pinhole glasses - scam.
2) bates method - scam
3) eye exercises - scam.
4) learning and practicing the correct eye habits over a period of 2 years - a realistic improvement in eyesight and myopia
He has listed the habits and so has Todd Becker on their websites.
Where did you read you need lower prescription glasses ?
It's certainly not the main habit.
Todd Becker has also written about the correct eye habits. They both have good information.
@@jorrgfromage9929 please tell that correct eye habits........
Please please please......
But what if im -1.25 and -0.75 do you prefer using glasses for this low myopia??
I have left 0.75- 0.5 right - i dont wan wear glasses what can i do
I just joined few weeks ago and learning about endmyopia. My 9 years old daughter recently got new prescription for -3.75. One year ago it was only -2.25. She doesn’t complain on poor vision when wearing old glasses. Does it mean we should not be getting glasses with new prescription?
She loves to be outside, but has been wearing glasses most of the time. I guess this might be the reason for worsening vision?
no I Dont think so, I it could be something in her eyes you have to check out
I can stikk see without glasses! My vision doesn't go blurry a lot
if im 0.75 diopter lenses can i just not wear glasses and it will get better😶
Jake will wearing your glasses more will it damage your eyes even more please help. Also I'm a kid and I wear glasses will it damage my eyes when I get older if I keep wearing them?
any help would be much appreciated! i have always had an equal prescription in both Left and right eye. I originally began this journey 2 weeks ago with a -5.75 sph -0.50 cyl axis 180. definitely over prescribed since i can see 20/15 with a -5.25 today. I am noticing now that my left eye is not quite the same as my right eye. it may need a -5.25 while my right would work with a -5.00 giving me a 20/40 to help in lessening my myopia. should i cover my right eye sometimes to help make my left eye equal and keep prescription the same. Im such a newbie, and i have 5 little children to distract me!! any help would be great!!
I hope you have discovered and read up on equalizing. Your reply is 4 years old. Where are you now as far as your numbers go?
In my situation it is not possible, I have bought from most of the eyewear glasses stores and changed like 4 or 5 eye doctors and they keep prescribing me glasses that m akes me feel bad. It has led to me a serie problems like headache and cross eye, it's not even like the light cross eye problems only appears on your aesthetic but im in pain because my is turning so Inward its touching my nose, there is some part of my eye I'm not sure... if it's called cornea ... the transparent membrane above the white is already squeezed up into a little between my pupil and my nose, and the outside of my eye was pull stretched and it appears so lots of red lines, and now when I wear glasses I have double vision and the shapes are distorted, I kept running between ophthalmologist offices and Hospital, I have apply to the hospital and changed the eye doctor for at least two or three times and every time I went back they told me my eyes are totally fine, it's just my glasses power that are not correct for me, and every time when they are done touching my eyes they will prescribe something higher, I don't understand why they gave 5.5 in one eye and 6.5 in the other eye. I've checked out a few simulators myopia simulators videos on UA-cam and on the internet. My situation is topmost four-point something. This is probably why I have my headaches my eye muscles got stuck. 3 days ago I took off my glasses completely and have not worn them since then, I felt the hardened parts of my eyes defrost, when I wore my glasses my up some parts of my eye muscles feels something Harden near my lashes, I'm not sure about the situation now...
sir i just gone a reduce glasses of -1.5 to -1.25 should i
Hi, my eye power is -2 in the left and -1.75 in the right. I feel uncomfortable by wearing my glasses all the time. I only wear it when I am watching any kind of screen like mobile phones or while reading. Will my eyesight get worse if I don’t wear my glasses all the time ? Pls help!
Same even i need help
Pls help I wore glasses ask a job for not long and my eyes are abit different and I don’t need glasses I never did
Thanks looking forward to more videos
i got -1.5 diopter and only see clearly 22 in away not even my full arms length so i have to be closer to my pc screen and i dont were glasses cause its odd to were glasses for far view up close so it would make me focus harder and make my eye musles more tence witch will make my vision even worse
Hi Jake, I have -0.5 prescription for my both eyes, so would it be okay for me to use glasses only when I have to read or see a bit far... Like reading board in the classes... Or shall I be wearing it all the time, even when I am just walking on the street or reading a book at home. Please advice.
Did ure eyes got better ?
Hi Jake, I'm glad I stumbled across this video which some how explains a concern I was having.
Basically I just got my first prescription glasses, OD -1.25 OS -2.50 and it's been great so far other than wearing them for computer use because I feel like it's too strong when I'm looking at my computer monitor, now I found my dad's extra pair and they seem to work good for computer use but I think it should be a little stronger, just a bit. I've read that there's no problem using someone else's.
Is that right, what do you think?
Don't use your myopia glasses for looking close up, except your myopia is highier than 2 diopter i think. If you can see the screen clearly without glasses or with just a little bit blur, don't wear glasses for it.
Why not?
Sir i wear spex power is - 3 is there any way to improve my eye sight naturally?
I have a fairly low prescription (R -1.8; L -1.6) and I don't really need to wear my glasses to do many things. I can still watch TV and read the whiteboard from the back of a classroom, but there's a slight blur. Am I doing something wrong by just watching without my glasses? I also don't have the advantage of using past prescriptions because I got glasses in January (I want to get rid of the myopia as soon as possible:D).
As long as you practice active focus, got some blue challenge that you put to use, all good.
What to do about astigmatism then?? Should i keep it, make it smaller? Should i add some sph and do less cyl? It is confusing af about astigmatism. It is easy with just myopia. You put 0,25 less and you are good to go...
Jake, by completely cutting out glasses, will the improvement still happen and at the same rate? Is it required to have a weaker prescription to actually improve to a point where you do not need glasses anymore?
I have -0.25 myopic eyes... Do I need to wear spectacals while reading???
So using that example of the -4 person, what glasses should he wear if he was just looking at a computer screen? Or looking at a TV screen? Should he just get glasses good enough for those activities?
+Connection Present Depends on the person. Probably around -2.50.
+Connection Present
here is what i think. the goal is not to go without glasses.
the goal is only use strength necessary for the activity, and slightly print push all the time.
so for close up work , no glasses.
walking around the house, a -1.
walking down the street, a -2.
climbing mountains and star gazing, a full -4 may be appropriate.
not wearing glasses creates too much strain.
you only need -4 to see 20 feet away.
but to see 10 feet away, a -4 would be harmful to your eyesight.
if you are near sighted, Im wondering why you should need any glasses at all for close up work???
because for some people the computer screen will be beyond the blur horizo or diopter bubble
Sir may i know someone say that not wearing glasses with increase myiopia
My i is weaken because When I squeeze my eye they move
How can we see if we not wear glass
What if im using my phone? Should i take off my glasses or keep wearing them?
Off
Hi.I have -5 D on right eye and -3D on left eye.I can study without glasses..Should I stop wearing glasses during studying or close work?
Yes
Dear jake. My 5 yr old daughter, during her routine eye check up diagnosed myopia with minus 2 dioptre. Is that necessary for her to wear the corrective lenses as she just go outdoors to play and no school??
Take the time to understand causes, so you don't get sold answers that may not make sense. Also, child myopia blog: endmyopia.org/children-myopia/
Yep really greta info Jake! I wear personally -4.75 and -7.75 with astigmatism on long distance. I already signed to your program and there are lots of things which i see quite useful. Thanks so much!
Can u list out the structure in a words ..how u started doing this in a steps ?? I really need this to understand...😢
Guys i really need help. Actually i didn't have any vision prob, it was all fine but just because i have to take 6 to 7 hrs classes + extra study time onscreen my eyes started getting really dry and i got headache and my forehead started feeling sore so my local optical store made me buy .5 further vision glasses. As i wore it the whole day I realised maybe my eyes have no problem maybe it will make it worse. Should i continue wearing them or not ??? It did feel like it didn't hurt the whole day but maybe that's just because the pain shifted to my eyes adjusting to the lence?? Please someone reply
So I have a question about this method. I have friends who wear glasses, but they initially developed short sightedness at a different age, or eventually their myopia stopped getting worse, and they always wear the same glasses, but retain perfect vision with those glasses. Is there an explanation for this? I really want to believe in this method and try it but I'm also scared the gamble might make my eyes worse and at R -4, L -5.25 as a slight underprescription, I dont wanna risk anything :/
As a follow up this is also the case with my mum, despite use seeing the same optometrist for 10+ years, which is why I'm not completely won over by this guys method. Her eye sight stopped worsening at -2.5 and -2.0 despite using computers/phones very frequently.
This is brilliant... Jake, any chance to listen to you talking about PD? (I've read your blog post btw); I'm going to start the journey soon, still I need to clear up some things... like glasses for intermediate distance (pc work) ... should I consider my PD distance or PD reading, or it doesn't matter at all :) I have -3.50/4.50 btw
Technically PD is lower for close-up but in most cases just using distance PD is perfectly ok.
Yep thanks! I have been doing massive reading in the last two months; actually I'm very excited about this, I can tell already that I see things "sharper".
hey man I don't want to wear glasses. because I am a soccer player and my number is -1.50 and I also do swimming. I am a sports person. what should I do????
Can see clearly without them (during the games)? if yes, then you don't need to wear them. Pretty much you should only wear your glasses when you need them.

Okay. I am in the same position as you and I think you should wear contacts. They don't make you look "silly" and they still let you see well. If you can see I don't think you should wear anything during swimming.
Matthew Arvin if you dont necessarily want to wear glasses since they may fall, then try to get prescription goggles- wherein they have the grade and you may see clearly. i hope that helps!

Always use appropriate correction while driving! Making no recommendations here for glasses and motor vehicle use. ;)
