Caution: Sungazing is not for everyone. Please wear proper sun protection ie) sunglasses, sun protection for your skin if you are under the sun. Please note that this is my personal experiment and what I found to be Top 5 habits that helped improve my vision in 2 months. I encourage you to share your experience of what you found to be helping your vision improvement as well. Thank you,
summary
1. Print out snellen charts and look for any clarity change with less blur. DO NOT Fixate your focus but even a little shift of focus to look for clarity is the key
2. Active Focus - when you are able to see letters less blurry after a natural blink (without squinting). This will last longer as you practice with peripheral vision.
3. Reduce prescription of your current glasses (refer to the link above for proper method)
4. Be outside in the sun especially between 8am to 11 am for geting vitamin D as well as U.V. that is beneficial for your eyes
5. Reduce screen time - small screen and small texts are detrimental to myopia condition
Thank you,
I do it with diya(Indian candle) and it is an Indian eye exercise known as tratak in yoga

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing, it's a great way to prevent ciliary muscle spasms.
Great.
Went from 20/60 to 20/20.
Took 2 years
I was waiting to hear Jake Steiner’s name, I have learned everything from him. Thank you for sharing!
You got it!
I am very happy that you got your eyesight back/it improved!
Thanks, brother! I appreciate your positive comment.
Thank you. I am going to follow everything you say. Of all the tubes I watched, I found yours with sincere information. May yours and your subscribers live 2024 and beyond in Radiant Health, Abundance and joy and to all your loved ones the same.
Wow, that’s the warmest and most heartfelt new year greeting I ever received this year. Thank you so much. I appreciate your kindness and sincerity. If you need any guidance along the way, please feel free to let me know. I will try my best to help you based on my experience. I hope you have a wonderful and vibrant new year with best of health!
From personal experience, the morning sun exposure ( sunrise to just before 10.am) definitely works. Also, sunset exposure IF you are able too. Don't stare directly at the sun. Just look in the general direction of where the sunlight is coming from.
Thank you 🙏 for your tips! I completely agree!
I went without glasses for a year because I couldn't afford to get a pair.
When I went to go get my driver's license I didn't even have to use glasses to pass the eye exam.
I drove for about another year before I decided I really needed glasses at night because my night vision was really bad. My eyesight has steadily gotten slightly worse since getting glasses again.
The only reason I can attribute it to not being a faster process is because as soon as I come home I take my glasses off and they don't go on again unless I drive or go to work.
Thank you sharing your story Kellie! I haven’t figured out this thing fully but I do think that our eyes dynamic nature of adaptation is powerful when we do not rely on our glasses. Although for a long term, there is a thing called blur adaptation we want to avoid. Hence the reduction methods work with great success. We definitely don’t want to rely on glasses all the time. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Very kind of you to help out. Thanks
Thank you for your kind words!
I like that this video has a summary in the end. Thank you.
Thanks for watching 'til the end!
he s absolutely right...
i did the same...
it really helped me... u'll see the difference within a month
rising sun'slight helped me the most...
just go for a walk during that time and try starring far....
My eye doctor puts extreme light on my eyes, and he told me I would be blind by the time i am 20. This gave me hope thank you.
Try to exercise go to nature and relax. Also try use fruits on your eyes like cucumber on both eyes
Thanks for your inspiring video! This should help many who are facing the problem. Especially for those who have to work on a computer for a long time at work and at home.🌄
Thank you for your positive feedback! 🥰
This is GREAT!
Congratulations!!
Thank you!
🙏 Great advice! Thank You So Much for the illumination! 🕯🌷🌿🌍
This is great .
Going from 20/60, to 20/20.
Took me one year.
I use a plus lens for all close work.
Once at 20/20, no more minus lens glasses.
Awesome 👏 congrats! I can’t wait to reach to that point! Thanks for sharing Otie!
What is a plus lens?
@@hsny76h4l9 Plus lenses are the spherical lenses that correct for hyperopia - far-sightedness or presbyopia. The diopters are plus, ie) +1 or +1.25 etc.
Wonderful
20/60, now on to 20/20.
I’m almost there 20/60 right behind you!
@@lifeishare I admire you and Jake Steiner for your scientific efforts.
It's really kind of you to take time off your schedules and answer even the recent inquiries. So thank you so much :)
I got my glasses 2 years ago. I had -1.0 myopia in both eyes but the fear that I might live like this for my entire life was far too bigger. So I researched everywhere and after finding out that after 20, eyes stop developing and the damage remains permanent after that, I made it my goal to reduce my myopia or atleast stop its progression. I tried everything, from eye exercises and 20/20/20 rule to using a laptop from more than an arm length away instead of my phone and reducing my screen time as much as possible aside from my online classes. I'm 19 now and I feel like it's only gotten worse, probably more than 2.0. If I read books for more than 30 minutes, even the things 2 feet away look blurry and not even my glasses help with that. And that is affecting my studies and life a lot. So please tell me if there's anything else aside from the instructions in the video that'll help me with that temporary blurriness. It'd be a lot of help. Thank you.
Jasmine, you are a kind hearted! Remember this, your eyes will adopt your environment. If your eyesight is -2 now, it’s myopia. For myopia condition it’s not a disease. Key thing is to allow your eyes to adopt to environment and surroundings of viewing far distance objects. I will make a video on this to emphasize this point I forgot to mention. No matter what exercises you do, if the ratio of seeing close up is higher than looking far distance objects on a daily basis it will be difficult for your eyes to restore good vision. I experienced this since November working on making these videos or spending more time indoors with computers I have not improved since even with all my healthy eating habits for eyes and frequent exercises. I don’t know what the minimum time per day is but I am experimenting. I am spending at least 1-1.5 hr outside viewing (active focus) and limiting computer usage to less than 4-5 hrs a day and no small screen (phone) usage and seeing some improvement. But to be confirmed after a little longer period of time of trial. Keep you posted!
@@lifeishare Really thank you so much sir... now my journey would only stop at 20/20. Thank you for giving us a realistic hope. I hope you complete your goals. And just one last question: is diplopia reversible too, since that's what troubling me at the moment. Please share some light on this.
@@jasminetirkey5429 Yes I have it too. I have astigmatism as well but as mentioned before, since it's coming from myopia condition once your eyes restore to 20/20 it will improve. Also to remember, our eyes sight is never fixed, they fluctuate depending on your health and environment. Even when we reach 20/20 we need to consistently maintain good habits. Then whether it be double vision or setbacks all can be adjusted to normal.
Thank you sir
So, any results so far?
gonna try this out and check back in a few months!
Awesome, let me know if you have any questions!
Side note: magic eye books have reallllly helped me to relax my ciliary eye muscles and strengthen my mental to ocular correspondence.
I appreciate you sharing the info, love to delve into it!
This is great.
How I went from 20/50, to 20/20.
Took 2 years.
From -0.75 D to +0.5D.
How?
Great job 👏 how are you keeping it 20/20? Have you noticed if you have to reduce screen time to certain hours per day at all? I’m keeping track currently 4 hrs or more seem to affect me more but each different stage may be different I figure.
@@maliyakkalkakkotmuhammedha9167 Hi Mali,
But wearing a +2 for all close work.
Possible when Snellen still at 20/50
Prevention IS LONG TERM GETTING RID OF CLOSE WORK.
Thank you, please share more
Will do 🫡
Thanks for the video.
You are welcome!
I did it.
Mine was not quite as bad as yours. I made it to 20/20...took about 2 years from 20/200 to 20/20.
It does improve ones life.
Congrats 🎉! Can’t wait to reach 20/20. Currently stuck trying to make UA-cam videos spending too much time looking at the video editor with my differential plus winter here with no sunlight exposure. But still trying with what I’ve got. Hope to achieve it in 3.5 years!
thanks, I need to try this, I want to surprise my doctor
Yes my optometrist was very surprised indeed.
Thanks for the informative video
My pleasure!
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
My sister used to stare at the sunset without sunglasses and now she has this weird white growth near her pupil.
Get it checked maybe she might go blind in the future
I'm mildly myopic. I lost my glasses once and went without for a bit until I caved and bought new ones. My prescription went down by 0.5. I got interested in this eyesight improvement stuff and my experience is that it does work as long as I keep doing the exercises but if I stop my myopia goes back to baseline pretty quickly. I've sort of given up on it as being too high maintenance when I can just wear glasses instead.
Sunlight does make a difference, I live far up north that I miss what little sunlight there is entirely for parts of December and the difference in my eyesight between summer and winter is obvious. I attribute part of this to just the effect of more sunlight hitting my eyes, part to me being outside more to look at far away things, part to not needing to wear glasses as much when it's bright outside and my pupils shrink and refractive errors shrink.
I agree with you! It’s challenging with modern lifestyle with computers and phones. On the other hand, it is a liberating thought if you can do activities without requiring glasses especially for those who has been wearing it life long. ;)
Has this worked for you?
Thank You ! 🙂
My pleasure 😇
Happy Easter Everyone!😃🐰
This video has piqued my interest. I’ve been wearing glasses 24/7 (except sleep ofc)for about 6 years now. Every eye test I have had my eyesight has gotten worse. I’ve also noticed in recent times it is getting worse. Interesting video (can’t wait for more)
Yes true for many! When I didn’t do eye tests since they started charging 😂, I have not gotten worse for 10 years. As soon as I do the test my eyesight shows it to be significantly worse. It turns out our eyesights do not have fixed vision, they always fluctuate depending on your environment and how you use them. They adopt to fit the best hence if you using them for closeup work for prolonged period of time, they will be accustomed to that. (Only taking about myopia here). Currently working on what food and supplements benefited me in rapid improvement. Stay tuned!
Does this work?
My hint is: notice the floor around you while doing everthing, really pay more attention to the floor than the area where you are looking at. In another words, anchoring your whole perception to the floor, yourself, your nose, shoulders, then you slowly "share" this perception to the thing you are looking at. Even wearing glasses.
While wearing weaker glasses you will get more flashes of clearity doing it.
Your full prescription does this without you knowing, it brings you back to yourself, it puts you in a contemplative state of you and things that are nearer and surrounds you. In a technical way, the light gets converged in front of your eyeballs, shinning light in the whole surface of your eyes. Your task is constantly makes your eyeballs do the task by getting aware of your near surrounds all the time.
amazing! Thanks for sharing, it's exactly how you should be using peripheral vision to improve vision. I do it by 'shift focus' or 'panoramic view capturing'. it seems to get me out of tunnel vision quickly. but something constant like floor perception is the way to go!
Thank you sir.
My pleasure! 😇
i have just started collodial silver, DMSO and NAC home-made eye drops
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for checking out!
Did this work for you?
I don't understand the third part, should i still wear lower prescription glasses when using my computer or stick to my prescribed glasses or increase it since the text is little blurry when i lean back from my chaie
Thank you so much
So glad you found it useful.
After watching half of the video i realised the doctor and sound in background is the same person
Thanks for noticing! 😂
How large does the snelling chart need to be when you put it 10 feet away?
Also are you saying that these 5 tips only work for temporary improvement or they really made a big change for you?
I have it printed out on a regular letter size paper. When looking at snellen chart, do not stare I made a mistake by saying the wrong word in the video, i meant to examine each letter for details of clarity forming when looking at the chart without glasses on. I plan to make a more structured format of how to implement these tips for beginners based on my experience what have worked for me so stay tuned but the tips will eventually become your lifestyle habit and restore your vision. since the posting of the video i learned a few more lessons to be shared such as breaking out of plateau stage or spotting when vision doesn't improve etc. However if you are just starting out, snellen chart is a good place to engage with active focus. If you struggle to form clarity then apply some of the exercises I shared in the shorts part1 when looking at the snellen chart it will definitely be easier. I started with -5 and right now i'm at -3 hoping to restore it completely by 2026. I wish you the best and Good luck!
Those that are light sensitive, sunlight is an issue, same with high contrast (most dark modes) or brightly lite backgrounds.
Thank you for making this very informative video! My 12 year old Son wears Miyosmart glasses prescription is Distance Right Eye Sphere -2.5, Cyl -0.5 and Left Eye Sphere -2.5 Cyl 0.75. Please advise which prescription should reduce to?
Did you know that it is very important that babies and toddlers sleep in complete darkness at nightime with no lights on. This will help to prevent them from getting myopia studies have shown. Plus encourage children of all ages 2:23 to go outdoors in the daytime
Yes not only for babies but even for adults it applies the same! Thanks for sharing!
Can you do a video about how to improve astigmatism that is the real challenge for me. Currently I see more of double vision instead of blurs.
I started my journey to clear vision 2022 October. I see a good improvement and feel comfortable wearing differentials. My power was 3.75 both eyes with bit of astigmatism.
Now by doing sunning, palming, walking outdoors my eyes improved. I’m writing this comment without glasses phone at some 40-45 cms distance elbow slightly bent.
Congrats! We started almost the same time. I’m slightly behind you I assume. What’s your current cm measurement? Or rx? I will certainly look into astigmatism focused improvement method as I also have as well.
Thank you for the information! Have you any thoughts on pinhole glasses?
I think they may help temporarily but not sure about lasting progressive improvements. But I heard of some who benefited.
Thank you sir
My pleasure!
i spent years with a patch over my good eye.. i went from 20/200 to 20/25.. one thing we did was put a piece of cellophane over a paper roll tube.. poked a hole in it and i read books with my bad eye , one letter at a time for years
I never thought that would really work based on my research. Thank you for sharing your personal experience!
U gain a new subs.. I starting this from today I will update my progress after a months...
Can I can get my eye sight back 20/20?
Right -3 left 2.5.. and is it necessary to wear my eye glasses when I m in nature doing active focus ??
Congrats my friend on a journey to 20/20. For active focus, you will need a prescription 1 down. So if you are -3 then get a glasses with -2.75 and do the same for the other eye rx. And wear this as your normalized glasses. Otherwise if you are seeing everything crystal clear there’s no room to see any better to have active focus. Also for computer you should not wear this glasses but instead get a computer glasses for close distance. Follow the tips I shared and go do some research on your own to learn. I shared all the links of resources. Good luck my friend!
Can i active focus without glasses and then wear them
Will it still work?
My eyesight is -4
Absolutely interesting topic. Indeed I want to improve my eyesight. Will start right now. Where I can get the eye charts?
Here’s one, visionsource.com/site/assets/files/1192/vision_source_eye_chart.pdf
My coworker handed me a post-it note and the writing was so tiny I had difficulty reading. Of course he has very good eyesight. I do not. Did he write small because he has good eyesight, or does he have good eyesight because he writes small?
Some ppl just write small! ;)
Hi! I wonder if I need to buy snellen charts the same size that doctors use when checking my eye, or if printing one on a bond paper will give me the same benefits? Hope to get your response! 🙏🙏🙏
Google it and you will find many pdf files you can print out. Good luck!
@@lifeishare Thanks!
I will try these and other methods everyday for the whole year or until I get 20/20 vision.
You and me both! Check out other success stories at Jake Steiner channel to get more tips from other people who have done it. Best luck 🍀!!
Do we do these focus exercises with our glasses on or off? Thanks. ©¿©
He has ‐3 on January 2024, as he has answered in one of the comments here.
I'm wandering if this video is actually an ad of Jack's Active Focus which is aggressively advertised now.
hahah thanks for your honest comment. I wish i get something from Jake or Mark since I'm unintentionally promoting them 🤣 I'm just sharing where I got my info from, that's all. Many people have questions that I can't answer which can easily found there. I don't agree everything but i gotta give credit otherwise I wouldn't have gotten where I'm at now with my vision.
5:17 for future references
Do you mean the summary? I forgot to mention that one of the most important thing is your mindset. If you have believe your vision will improve, you have faith and hope which will ignite your passion. Your passion will drive everything you do to accomplish your desired goals. It is true for myopia case since it is quiet doable if you put your mind to it.
Thank you very much for your video, this is really informative.😇
I just got eye check and it was -0.25[L] & -0.50[R], so should I wear my prescribed glasses that I just received?(I can still read without them)
Also, for how long should I stare at that vision chart?
Your reply will be really helpful.
I wouldn’t get prescription glasses. Your prescription is low enough to improve fast if you just apply tips I shared. And for looking at snellen chart instead of staring just look for details or edges of letters to see if clarity changes after examining for a few minutes
Hi it's me agian, It's been 47 days now since i have been practicing active focus now i can read the 20/20 line on the snellen chart from 6 meters away but not perfecly.
Now it's easy for me to read the chart from 6 meters so i decided to read it from 7,50 meters away.
I can see the 20/25 clearly now and i will continue until i can read the 20/15 line.
I went to the ophtalmologist and my prescription decreased from minus 3 to minus 2.50 in 40 days.
I want to reach 20/15 so i can go to the church with my parents during the night (i always have been afraid on getting out at night because of my nearsightedness) when i cure myopia i will finally be able to go to the church at night agian

Will do! Thanks! In the meantime you can learn from others in Jake’s Facebook forum and his UA-cam channel about others success stories!
Hey,do i need to wear specs all the time? I mean while doing exercise every day should i wear specs?
I wouldn’t. More you wear your specs you will lose dynamic nature of your eyes and harder to improve vision. Only wear when necessary! And go without as much as possible.

Is there any problem related with the blue light glasses? I have astigmatism 4.5 each eye and wear my glasses all the time. When i first started wearing them i felt a little sick, idk if the yellowish tone caused it, today im fine but lately i feel like not wearing them all the time as if i wanted the natural blue light a bit. Does it make any sense? Its fun because i can see clearly the natural blue light in the mornings, and sometimes it feels greenish, its delightful.
Absolutely! Natural blue light in the morning is essential for a healthy circadian rhythm boosting our energy level, alertness and regulate our mood. If you want to improve your vision consider getting a glasses for 4.25, for more details check out my video!
Wearing glasses is very difficult for me. I am so used to contacts. Do you have advice for those of us wearing contacts? Or do all of your points in the video apply as well? Thank you! Will come back to this video, I found it very interesting and helpful!
Thank you for your kind words! Yes, the tips I shared can be applied to those who are wearing contacts. If your rx is very high (above -4 or -5) some people have benefitted from wearing +1.5 or so glasses for computer (aka differential glasses) and for normalized (for far viewing) get contacts with 0.25 lower than your normal rx. The detail steps on how. to reduce effectively can be found here, wiki.endmyopia.org/wiki/Guide:Reducing_lens_complexity. Good luck in your journey to vision restoration! I"'ll be uploading a video soon about what I do to bring active focus quick. Stay tuned!
Can I squint when staring at the chart, or no? Also I was told by several eye doctors that for people with lighter colored eyes sun exposure on the eyeballs mad harm vision over time so I should be sure to wear sunglasses. So I but darkening lenses on my glasses. I suspect this might be utter bullshit but I am afraid to risk ruining my vision further.
Appreciate your questions, please do not squint or force in anyway when looking at the chart. Also instead of staring, I meant really just examining the letters on the chart for any clarity changes if you can tell. It is more effective and a few blinks can bring clarity and focus when you are at the right distance so play around with the distance rather than squinting. Regarding the sun exposure, I think it's pretty safe to have morning sunlight(9-10am) come into your face (your eyes) AS LONG AS you don't directly look at the sun (even for lighter colored eyes) but after that, sunlight may become harmful to your eyes so it's best to wear a sunglasses and sun protection for your skin as well. I only experimented sun gazing (5-6am sunrise time only) 20 min for a couple of months and I shared that in the video which is not for everyone especially if you have blue eyes.
@@lifeishare Understood. Thank you for responding so quickly and in detail. I will definitely try this.
how does active focus change the shape of cornea for astigmatism ?
active focus I believe is only helping your vision restoration so once your vision is restored then the shape of cornea is restored to normal shape. so basically active focus itself I believe is making an attempt to restore the shape. just my opinion.
I have very bad vision since i was young, im at -6.75 i cant see anything. but one thing i can agree to you that ur eyesight can change throught the day. i will try ur habits and i hope it works!
How are you looking at the screen then? Maybe you just need to have more sun?
Also idk how having glasses at a young age influences your eyesight, but maybe do reading tests and don't use your glasses as much if you want better sight.
hey, but pinhole glasses also make the lens focusing on something, and my eye feels like go to gym after use it for 30 minute it should work
Hello, my right eye is near sighted and my left is far sighted. My eyes like to work separately, should I do anything special to train them to work together?
I would first focus on restoring right eye using the tips I shared in the video.
I have -3.25 in my left eye and -3.50 in right eye, can it still be cured? im thinking to go and see a doctor for a test cuz it's been months since my new glasses came
I wouldn’t get a new glasses rather start implementing the tips I shared and learn more at Jake Steiner’s channel to improve vision.
When I’m in high school, there’s a high chance I could see clearly with no blur for some moment like you said but when I blink I see blurry again. I have 1 and 1.25 myopia. Will this make my eyes get used to clearly vision?
Awesome you have a great chance you will learn “active focus” quicker than others. Since your prescription is not too high. Try without glasses outdoors and wear only when you need them. And be active outside in the sun often and keep learning how to do active focus. Join Jake Steiner’s Facebook group to learn from others as well, it will speed things up in your learning curve. You will restore your sight back soon I have no doubt! Keep it up 👍🏼
@@lifeishare thank you so much for the informations!! I subscribed to help you grow your channel!!!
Thank you! 🙏
A few months ago my vision was -1.25 (left eye) and - 0.75 (right eye). Now I feel it has gotten worse. I will do exercises during 1 year and share my results here. Thanks for the previous response 🙏
As I explained in the video I went from -5.00 diopter to -3.5 glasses at the time so no where near 20/20 where you don't need glasses. I've so far reduced further to -2.75 at this point. If you check out the links I shared in the video and description, you can find other testimonials of people who reduced more than me. But based on my experience so far, this truly works but it's slow and require incredible amount of efforts and adjustments to lifestyle. But i'm excited that it's working because the glasses I used to wear are all too strong for me and can't wear them anymore. Amazingly I'm heading in the right direction. I anticipate reaching 20/20 in 3 year time line. Basically 1 diopter per year improvement. On this channel i will be sharing my experiences what worked and what didn't. Btw, I am very happy you raised that question and leaving me a comment! Also I love your name. We need more minimalists in this world of excessive accumulation both physical and spiritual. May you stay true to your name! All the best!
On July 15th his name changed from Stephen to Steven
Yes my optometrist spelled my name wrong. Good observation!
Out side in the sun morning and evening with glasses or with out glasses please tell me ihave -3 eye sight in two eyes
Without glasses is the best in the first 1-2 hrs in the morning and evening but during the day if you are outside wear glasses. But if you are working at the desktop wear differential glasses which I explained in the video.
That only works for miopia or also another conditions as astigmatism
Hi.
Rather than use normal glasses to read/view a mobile phone screen is it better to use my +2.00 reading glasses?
Thanks
Yes some ppl do that given you don’t have presbyopia since it’s only for myopic condition
I always had a nice sight but then i fcked and because of phone i now have 0,5d to distance. It started about two years ago. I wanna code and stuff but my eye doctor told me two months ago that if i want a result i have to watch screen for only one hour a day. I dont know what to do. I really want to have perfect sight but i wanna code and i dont want to stop coding. Also i spent much time on mobile everyday. I wanna change. Please tell me what should i do.
Your struggle is a common dilemma for the vast majority of people. There is no clear-cut solution my friend. I am also in the camp, where I need to spend time on the computer editing videos and work etc preventing my vision improvement. We just have to figure out a system where we spend less screen time. Some tasks can be converted to audio-only but very limited. Sometimes we just have to make a decision on which is more important and decide. One day there maybe ai technology to code with voice. Good luck my friend.
Hello! My vision is around -3.00 and i am trying my best to reduce screen time. The cause of this was due to deficiency of vitamins and also a LOT of screen time. I suffer rom blurry vision, and am currently using glasses. My Target is to reduce the number of my specs. Could you provide some information on how i can reach my goal?? As all my friends have been saying that their specs no. Keep increasing, and that scared me so bad 😅
Keep up with reducing screen time as it is, I think number one reason eyesights don't improve fast. so really the top five tips I shared is still the best things to get started with and do some digging yourself using the links I shared as well to further educate yourself about how to recover naturally. I'm now at -3.25 and still working hard to reduce screen time and increase outdoor active focus time to 2 hours minimum. Hopefully you can join in the journey and restore your eyesight to normal in 3 years. it is a reasonable goal to achieve. Best wishes!
@@lifeishare thanks for your tips :)
expending time on phone and not going outside really messes up your eyesight. my eyes got worse when i got my laptop at 15. That's when i started having vision problems. been using glasses for around 16 years and it sucks. Im totally reducing my screen time. And it made a complete difference
I agree it surely can be challenging to limit screen time but when done effectively or even with 20-20-20 habits your eyes can be in much better and healthier state. I've used 20-20-20 to reduce my eye power with 6-7 hour computer screen time so it is effective given the distance to computer has to be kept strictly.
Thanks again for sharing this. Please I have two questions, you said you stare at your computer for break, during break off my computer should I stare at snelling chart with or without my differential because I am -7....can I stare at it even if I don't see it clearly or what should I do?
The second question you talked about it is better even not to use glasses for close up task Will prevent ciliary muscle spasms,I don't understand?have you done the video?
Please I will appreciate your answer
Thank you
For -7 you definitely need differential glasses to help you for desktop usage. Still sometimes look at snellen chart without glasses to compare. You may be able to tell the clarity coming a bit better. And yes I’m currently working on my video. I can tell you now, you should see far distance objects without glasses in the morning ideally outdoor as long as you are safe, first hour or two as a good habit. Ciliary spasm happens when you see screen for too long. Please try your best to avoid or reduce as much as you can/
Incredible success.
Now 20/20.
How did you achieve that? Please share
How
@@vipergaming7078 you will not LIKE THE ANSWER .
howw?
@@otiebrown9999 Probably because it's a lie lol
Sir my eye has -6d myopia on both my eyes can i improve my eye to 20/20 and if possible in how much time
It is possible if your condition is only involved with myopia. How long it will take may vary but probably more than 7 years I would assume given you change your lifestyle drastically
Thank you so much for sharing! Could you please tell us how to sungaze safely? How can I watch the sunset without turning blind? I see you mentioned using sunglasses. Were they normalized sunglasses?
I"m not a big proponent of sungazing for mass because we don't know what eye conditions you may have. And it could be dangerous. I tried it myself personally and shared it but I no longer do it consistently. I did it only the first 20 minutes of sunrise and then last 20 minutes before sunset without any sunglasses at the time. But recently I noticed I could get the same benefits without directly looking at the sun but just around sun or even just looking up on the sky, clouds so that it doesn't blind you, this way much safer and get the similar benefits I believe.
Concrats on getting rid of ciliary spasm, now the fun part begins🙂
How to get rid of ciliary spasm?
@@MSN539 Stop/limit the use of the ciliary. Going outside and viewing distance does this along with almost ZERO reading with 20/20 vision Its too hard on the eyes, use glasses that see clearly only to your phone or book or computer, no further, keeps the ciliary relaxed, the glasses do the work, takes up to 6 weeks, GOOD LUCK!!! Go outside loads
@@kkevinj1 I’ve never wore glasses in my life and I have to squint and close my eyes hardly to see the board in the school but I could barley see the 20/200 on the snellen chart I printed so I assume I have like -3. Do I wear reading glasses when using my phone since I see my phone and close up work 20/20?
@@MSN539 Well the goal is to get the phone as far away as possible and you want the phone SLIGHTLY blurry so that there is a very small challenge of myopia remaining. Try and clear the remaining blur with your eyes and brain, both relaxed. Its called active focus.
Do we have to use glasses all the time while in myopia
Like what if we don't use them for some time while outside or anything else?
depends on your prescription how bad your eyesight is. anything below -1.0 i think it's better not to wear glasses outside. But high myopia may require normalized glasses to prevent 'blur adaptation' which delays the improvement. But regular glasses will not help improving your eyesight and more risk of damaging your eyesight if worn all the time even with near work.
Mu prescription Is minus 3 but I have 20/30 eyesight sometimes I have a 20/20 flash when looking at the Snellen chart.
I also have astigmatism.
Is It posible to cure?
yes i'm currently at the same level and also have astigmatism as well. Looking forward to restoring completely to 20/20! Hope you start adopting some of the tips I shared in the video! Good luck!
What Is your prescription?
@@ayrtonvenancio3510 currently -3.00 so maybe we can achieve 20/20 together same time? although mine will improve slower due to my age and computer usage. lol
Subscribed. More videos please.
Thank you! Working on it. Any particular topic interests?
@@lifeishare yes. I've seen the attached file
It is very confusing to know how to reduce power systematically. Please a simpler video on that.
@@gayatricasey6618 sure in the mean time work on both of your eyes now since you will need to see improvements at least in the next month or two before reducing for one eye. also take the free course from Jake Steiner's site which explains how you can track the progress by doing cm measurement at home and other basic knowledge. Cheers,
Do you suggest doing active focus at the chart using your lower prescription glasses or without ?
I do it without but some ppl do it with their differential glasses as well. And once you get active focus going from snellen chart, you will be able to do that in all distant viewing you do. And this is when you start to pick up the momentum to improve your vision.
Does this thing called 'candle meditation' or better known as 'tratak' work for improving eyesight? Can you make a video on it!
I have heard of candle light staring but not sure about ‘tratak’ which appears to be a yogic practice. I’m cautious on any spiritual practices. And currently do not have much knowledge to make video on. Will look into it.
Go out more. Reduce mobile phone use.
My eyesight is improving day by day
- get enough sleep
- eat carrots, beetroot
- 5min breaks every half hr watching screen
- drinking MORE water - avoid drinking anything AFTER EATING to protect heart.
- sleep in a dark room
- first hr when u wake up and last hour before sleep AVOID going on screen.
- eat more green veg
- are you diabetic?
- when did u have a blood test n what were the results? ( if u are okay with this )
@@My_Secret_ArtSketchbook thanks for your suggestions (and I'm not diabetic )
Hello, i have -0,75 on left with -1,25 astigmatism. On right i have -1,75. Should i drop right to -1,25 or it is too much?
Also fo u have help for astigmatism??
I’m not the expert but I don’t think It’s good to drop suddenly especially when there is imbalance. But good thing is your eyesight is not too bad you can improve your vision within a year if you apply the tips I shared in the video. Also research on your own to find out about restoring myopia.
@@lifeishare Thanks. God bless
How big does the canvas of the stallen chart need to be in order to maximize improvemebt time when you look at it?, Is it big enough if i printed it from a normal canon printer.
Yes mine is on 8.5x11
Dr , my presctiption is -3.5 and -3.75 what lower prescription should i wear ?...
Plus i also cant see whats writfen on desktop without glasses but feels weired when i read with same eye no nd ok when i remove glasses ....also some ppl suggest to not wear glasses of high mypic for closed works as it makes things more smaller...so shoukd i akso get more lesser prescription for reading or nearby work , just to reduce that blurr?
You got it! First you need normalized glasses with -3.25, -3.5 basically 0.25 down for both eyes. And you also need a computer glasses probably around -2.25 or something close, check with eye care provider.
Anw, at what distance you practice active focus with a snellen chart?
I do one by my desk (100-120cm away) and the other one approximately about 10 ft away. It depends on how bad your eyesight is to be more effective at clearing blur out.
Do it outside and at the farthest you could read
hello sir, my prescription is -5 on both eyes with astigmatism as u said i am going to reduce my glasses by 0.25. bt i have a question, should i reduce wearing glasses and wear them only when needed?I heard this by some other people on their 20/'20 journey. and should i wear my reduced glasses when going out for sunlight and should i open my glasses while taking a break from my pc screen(20 20 20 rule) or keep em on?
Very good question, the key is you need to see clearly enough always, never blurry, in order to improve vision. So that’s why the active focus is the key and it needs to occur every time always naturally (never forcefully) if you want speedy progress. So to answer your question, since you have severe myopia with -5 like i did 2 years ago, you need to wear -4.75 most of the time with active focus clearing out the blur. And only for close up work and pc screen, -2.25 which I used but for you, could be -2.5 or higher (check with optometrist for computer glasses measurement) ideally you want to see clearly at 60 cm distance to screen minimum to start and you will work up to 70 to 80cm with the same computer glasses prescription until you need to change this glasses called ‘differential’ glasses. You will wear your ‘normalized’ glasses outdoor sunlight doing the active focus constantly AND for 20-20-20 as well. so every 20 to 30 min at desk work, you will find yourself switching from differential to normalized for every break which basically is training your eye muslces to improve which automatically involves near far and shift focus exercises without knowing. I found this to be the most effective so far and working on video for it. stay tuned.
@@lifeishareOkh thank you!!
I really appreciate u putting ur time and effort into providing me with ur detailed info.I am so grateful to you.
@@CelsiOp I felt inclined to you with your -5 situation as I started with that number back in summer of 2022, since then worked hard to improve on it to reach -3.5 by the end of that year but got stuck for more than 6 months then progressed to -3.25 and -3 last year. Now I'm at -2.75 and hoping to reduce again in the next 2 to 3 months time. It's definitely work in progress and learning more each year. Tough to balance with work though. But it's worth it. I hope you will restore your vision as well my friend!
@@lifeishare Arigato!! and I hope u attain ur 20/20 vison soon enough! It's a blessing to have people like u on earth tryna help others with their eyes. U r doing a really great job.
I use an oil lamp when there is no sunlight. It seems to help. Fireplace is another option.
Thanks for your tip!
What do you mean by computer glasses? Reading glasses?
I've always had 20/20 but I'm 44 and having close blurriness problems and trying to avoid depending on readers. Do gentle readers help with lots of screen time? I work and play on my computer. Lots of hours.
Computer glasses are differential glasses. For you though, close blurriness you are experiencing is something different especially you have 20/20 vision. Not sure if Jake's community has some helpful tips but you should check it out. I shared the link in the description.
Hello sir i m 24 years old my eyesight is -2.75& -3.25 can it be improved...since last 2 months i feel that the number has changed also what should i do.... I m worried and it is not stable please give me suggestions
I’m at -3.5 and -3.25 and working to reduce to -3.25 and -3.00 in the next 3-4 months. Try committing to 1.spend minimum 1.5-2 hrs outside looking at far distance objects or trees. 2. Reduce computer time to max 6 hrs but eliminate phone screen usage. 3. Wear glasses only outside looking far distance. 4. Order computer glasses (ie, -2.75 or -2.25 check with your eye doctor for this) and use this glasses for computer screen desktop usage. These are key things I will be doing and check my first video I shared 5 tips. Good luck to you and let’s talk again in 4 months!
My righteye is -2.25 and lefteye is -2.00 so which glasses i use for computer plz tell me (my computer screen is 2.5 feet away from my eyes)
typically 1 diopter lower for computer use but to be accurate, it's better to go see eye care provider to measure it. But your distance to computer screen is good. basic idea is that you are able to see the screen at 2.5ft with -1.25 glasses(for instance) without any problem. It may not be crystal clear but your eyes can focus and bring clarity quickly when working.
Im not a Doctor by any means but when doing up close work I actually put on a PLUS lens. So for computer and my phone I’ll wear a plus 1.25 that you can find at like a dollar tree. This shrinks your eyeballs length. Case study showed shortening of the eyeball within an hour of wearing plus lenses.
@@camisnyder3460 yes I've heard numerous stories. Once i get to -1 level i might need to do that.. what's your rx?
