  • Ari is someone who had enough with his glasses, so he made a decision one day to get rid of them, once and for all. But unlike any other person, he didn't put contact lenses or do a laser surgery, he did it on his own, by practicing his eyes. How? Listen to Ari.
    Ari is a college graduate. While studying, he decided to research alternative medicine, in the field of eyesight.
    He found a method, developed by Dr. Bates, to improve eyesight. Ari put himself a goal to spread the method, that helped him to get rid of his glasses, around the world.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    For anyone who dont understand, here is the basic thing he said.
    1) U need to exercise your eyes about 1 hour a day.
    2) Use bates method to improve your eyesight, (I'll explain below)
    3) Dont expect to get rid of your glasses to soon. make it consistent. even small improvement counts.
    Now for the exercise:
    1) extend your arm and make the 'best sign'. look at your thumb and bring it closer to your face and extend it agains. focus on the thumb and realize how it works on focusing the thumb movement. it will train your eyes focus.
    2) rub you hands together, than put your warmed palm to your eyes. it helps to relax your eye muscle. do it 5 to 10 minutes. repeatedly
    3) Make this weird exercise ( he said it himself), put a paper on your face to block your eye. than hold another 2 paper, and wave it around. this will practice your peripheral vision. so as to exercise your body as a whole. (watch at 12:25)
    he do it for few years, and now able to drive without glasses. proven by his own ophtamologist .
    I guess thats all.

      I don't understand him either, but what he is talking about is
      THE BATES METHOD. There are tons of videos on youtube on this, and you can buy the book on Amazon.
      These ecercises for the eyes work, and you should feel relief immediately. I did.
      Your eye sight might not improve immediately, but you'll feel them relax that's for sure. I did !!!
      If you think of it we are so used to looking down at something in up close. What I did on my own is look up and far and turn my eyes to the left and to the right and I notice something right away. I got the book and still reading. It's only costs around $23.
      I have elevated eye pressure, andi want to lower it without dangerous medication or surgery. That's my plan.
      Good luck with your eyes.

    This video is really exciting! I've watched similar videos on youtube before, but no one was showing their physician-prescribed before, so I could not fully trust them.
    But this video gave me confidence that, I will try it, but basically what they mentioned in the video is very short, I wish he made a 1-day eye routine video, I looked at his youtube channel but I did not see a video about it.
    All his eye movements, and how many repetitions? How did he use technological tools while doing these exercises? And his eyes is -2.50 miyopia, he suddenly stopped wearing glasses? How did he deal with the fuzzy world?

    • @famousplan2693
      @famousplan2693 3 роки тому +6

      I've also stopped wearing glasses. It takes some time to get used to. My main advice is don't strain your eyes to see. If you can't see, accept the blur and stay calm, it'll go away over time. If you strain your eyes to see 24/7 you are just hurting them. I recommend watching videos by Nathan Oxenfield on the Bates Method thats who I follow.

      @IglooDweller 8 років тому +5

      Turn on subtitles then go to Settings and select auto-translate Hebrew > English. It's not perfect, but it's good enough to get the gist of it. Basically: 1) switch between looking at your thumb and the distance to exercise your eyes. 2) Rub your hands together and place over your eyes to relax the muscles in your eyes. 3) To improve peripheral/night vision, stick a piece of paper in front of your eyes and then wave around 2 bits of paper at your side. Persist. It takes time. And look up Dr. Bates/Bates method.

    @camisnyder3460 7 місяців тому

    So that’s not the entire truth. Thee absolute key to vision improvement is by taking off your glasses and contacts. Hold your phone close to your face and then pull it away until it gets blurry. STOP. That’s your blue line. Now here you relax and I mean RELAX. Looking at your phone breathe deep breaths while thinking, “I’m relaxing, facial muscles are relaxed, my ciliary muscles are relaxed, my eyes are relaxed, I am AcTIVE Focus, Focus, RELAX” the BOOM you will see clearly. You must RELAX the eye muscles at the blur line and think about focusing and relaxing. Do this as much as you can throughout the day. Only wear your glasses when you MUST. Sun gazing and palming too.

    Quick question - how many times a day did you do those exercises? And for how long each time?
    Is it only three of them (palming, focusing on your thumb and forward, piece of paper for peripheral vision) or there were more exercises?
    Thank you.

    • @arisinger8320

      I would do them sometimes for a total of an hour, sometimes more and sometimes less.
