PRACTICE THE SAME CORRECT VISION HABITS (SHIFTING, CENTRAL-FIXATION, RELAXATION...) USED FOR FAR OBJECTS TO SEE CLOSE OBJECTS CLEAR


EXAMPLE; LOOK AT A SMALL FLOWER OR PIECE OF JEWELRY AT 3 - 7 INCHES FROM THE EYES.
PLACE THE OBJECT UP IN FRONT OF THE FACE, IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD; BETWEEN THE EYES, AT EYE LEVEL.
USE GOOD POSTURE; AVOID BENDING THE HEAD, NECK DOWN. KEEP THE NECK STRAIGHT AND RELAXED.
SEE EXAMPLE OF GIRL LOOKING AT BIRD; GOOD POSTURE, BIRD IS AT EYE LEVEL, CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD.

THE HEAD/FACE, NECK AND BODY ARE RELAXED AND MOVE FREELY.Fine Print Shown into Camera After Reading. See VideoReading Fine Print

OPHTHALMOLOGIST BATES TEACHES HIS PATIENTS TO USE CENTRAL FIXATION AND SHIFTING WHEN LOOKING AT ANY SIZE OBJECTS AT ANY DISTANCE CLOSE AND FAR.
CENTRAL FIXATION; SEE ONE SMALL PART OF THE OBJECT BEST, CLEAREST IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD.
THE PART THE EYES ARE LOOKING AT IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD IS CLEAREST BECAUSE THE CENTER IS THE CLEAREST AREA OF THE VISUAL FIELD.
THE CENTER OF THE RETINA, FOVEA CENTRALIS IN THE MACULA PRODUCES THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD AND CLEAREST VISION, CLEARER THAN 20/20;  20/10, 20/5... AT ALL DISTANCES CLOSE AND FAR.                                                                                                        
OTHER PARTS OF THE OBJECT THE EYES ARE NOT LOOKING DIRECTLY AT ARE IN THE PERIPHERAL FIELD AND ARE LESS CLEAR BECAUSE THE PERIPHERAL FIELD/PERIPHERAL AREA OF THE RETINA PRODUCES LESS CLEAR VISION.
THE FAR OUTER AREA OF THE PERIPHERAL FIELD IS MOST UNCLEAR. THE INNER PERIPHERAL FIELD IS CLEARER.  THE PERIPHERAL FIELD CLOSEST TO THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD IS MORE CLEAR.
THE EXACT CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD IS THE CLEAREST.
THIS IS DUE TO THE POSITION OF CONES AND RODS (LIGHT RECEPTORS) IN THE EYES RETINA.
CONES PRODUCE VERY CLEAR VISION AND BRIGHT COLOR.
RODS PRODUCE LESS CLEAR VISION AND ONLY GRAY, BLACK, LIGHT, DARK PERCEPTION BUT ALSO DETECT MOTION AND THEY CONTINUE TO FUNCTION WHEN IN ALMOST COMPLETE DARKNESS.
THE CENTER OF THE RETINA CONTAINS MANY CONES, WITH THE EXACT CENTER (FOVEA CENTRALIS IN THE CENTER OF THE MACULA) CONSISTING OF ONLY CONES. THE MANY CONES IN THE CENTER
OF THE RETINA (FOVEA CENTRALIS), PRODUCE VERY CLEAR VISION AND PERFECT COLOR PERCEPTION IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD.

THERE ARE LESS CONES IN THE PERIPHERAL FIELD OF THE RETINA.Better Eyesight Magazine, July, 1919. Print Reading in Picture
THE PERIPHERAL FIELD CONTAINS MANY RODS, SOME CONES.  THERE ARE ONLY RODS, NO CONES, IN THE FAR OUTER AREA OF THE PERIPHERAL FIELD OF THE RETINA.
THIS RESULTS IN LESS CLEAR VISION IN THE PERIPHERAL FIELD.

SEE CLEAR BY USING THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD, NOT THE PERIPHERAL.
PLACE THE PART OF THE OBJECT YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD.
+CENTRAL FIXATION, SEEING WITH THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD CAUSES THE CENTRAL LIGHT RAY TO FOCUS PERFECTLY ON THE FOVEA CENTRALIS IN THE MACULA/CENTER OF THE RETINA RESULTING IN PERFECT FOCUS OF LIGHT RAYS IN THE EYE AND CLEAR EYESIGHT.
SEEING WITH THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD IMPROVES CLARITY OF THE CENTRAL AND PERIPHERAL FIELDS OF VISION.
+SHIFTING; TO MOVE "SHIFT" THE EYES, MOVING THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD FROM PART TO PART ON A OBJECT.
AS THE EYES DO THIS, ONE SMALL PART OF THE OBJECT IS SEEN BEST/CLEAREST AT A TIME.
THE TIME THE PART IS IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD AND SEEN CLEAREST MAY BE FOR ONLY A FRACTION OF A SECOND AS THE EYES CONTINUALLY SHIFT, MOVING FREQUENTLY FROM PART TO PART, BUT, DURING THAT FRACTION OF A SECOND THAT PART IS CLEAREST.
AS THE EYES, CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD MOVES CONTINUALLY, QUICKLY FROM PART TO PART, THE ENTIRE OBJECT IS SEEN CLEAR.



OPHTHALMOLOGIST BATES DESCRIBES USING CENTRAL FIXATION AND SHIFTING TO SEE A LETTER CLEAR IN HIS MONTHLY BETTER EYESIGHT MAGAZINES.     

EXAMPLE; LOOK AT THE BIG LETTER C.  

  
C                                               C Chart for Close Vision
LOOK AT ONE SMALL PART OF THE C. EXAMPLE; TOP RIGHT CORNER.
PLACE IT IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD.
SHIFT ON THAT SMALL PART FOR A COUPLE SECONDS.
NOTICE THAT IT APPEARS CLEARER AND DARKER BLACK THAN THE OTHER AREAS OF THE C WHICH ARE IN THE PERIPHERAL FIELD.
NOW SHIFT TO A NEW SMALL PART - MIDDLE LEFT SIDE.
THE NEW PART IS NOW IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD AND IS DARKEST BLACK AND CLEAREST.
THE TOP CORNER AND ALL OTHER PARTS THE EYES ARE NOT LOOKING DIRECTLY AT ARE IN THE PERIPHERAL FIELD AND ARE LESS CLEAR.
NOW, SHIFT TO A NEW PART. THE NEW PART IS NOW IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD AND IS DARKEST BLACK AND CLEAREST. 
ALL OTHER PARTS ARE IN THE PERIPHERAL FIELD AND ARE LESS CLEAR.

SHIFT CONTINUALLY FROM PART TO PART.
THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD MOVES WITH THE EYES FROM PART TO PART SEEING EACH PART CLEAR.
BLINK AND RELAX.
WHEN THE EYES MOVE FROM PART TO PART (SHIFT) SEEING ONE SMALL PART CLEAREST AT A TIME IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD THE C IS SEEN CLEAR.
NOW, PRACTICE THIS ON THE SMALL C.                
  C

PRACTICE ON A FINE PRINT C,  THEN  ON AN O.          c        o     o
NOTICE OPPOSITIONAL  MOVEMENT (THE SWING) WHEN SHIFTING ON THE LETTER, THE LETTER MOVES IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION THE EYES SHIFT TO; SHIFT RIGHT; THE LETTER MOVES LEFT.
SHIFT LEFT; THE LETTER MOVES RIGHT.
THE MOVEMENT IS SHORT, LESS THAN THE WIDTH OF THE LETTER.
SHIFT TOP AND BOTTOM ON THE LETTER AND SEE OPPOSITIONAL MOVEMENT.
BLINK, SHIFT , RELAX.

THINK RIGHT

"As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," is a saying which is invariably true when the sight is concerned.

When a person remembers or imagines an object of sight perfectly the sight is perfect; when he remembers it imperfectly the sight is imperfect.  The idea that to do anything well requires effort, ruins the sight of many children and adults; for every thought of effort in the mind produces an error of refraction in the eye. The idea that large objects are easier to see than small ones results in the failure to see small objects.   The fear that light will hurt the eyes actually produces sensitiveness to light.  To demonstrate the truth of these statements is a great benefit.

  Remember a letter or other object perfectly, and note that the sight is improved and pain and fatigue relieved; remember the object imperfectly, and note that the vision is lowered, while pain and fatigue may be produced or increased.

Rest the eyes by closing or palming, and note that the vision is improved, and pain and discomfort relieved; stare at a letter, concentrate upon it, make a effort to see it, and note that it disappears, and that a feeling of discomfort or pain is produced.

   Note that a small part of a large object is seen better than the rest of it.

  Accustom the eyes to strong light; learn to look at the sun; note that the vision is not lowered but improved, and that the light causes less and less discomfort.

 Remember your successes (things seen perfectly); forget your failures (things seen imperfectly); patients who do this are cured quickly.

Ophthalmologist William H. Bates Better Eyesight Magazine Dec. 1921


+ Modern Bates teacher’s state to look at the sun with the eyes closed, but looking at the bright sky is ok as long as over exposure/sunburn is avoided.

+ Palming = to cover the closed eyes with the palms of the hands and relax, think positive thoughts.

+ Staring at a letter = eye immobility, not shifting from part to part on the letter, not using central fixation/the center of the visual field.

+ Seeing a small part of a large object better than the rest = using central fixation; looking at one small part of the object at a time and placing it in the center of the visual field.  This is done on any size objects,
   large or small at any distance close or far.

+ Remembering, imagining objects clear, storing only clear pictures of objects in the memory relaxes the mind, eye muscles, eyes, activates normal eye muscle/eye function, movement and clear eyesight.

SEE A LARGE OR SMALL OBJECT CLEAR BY RELAXING; DON'T TRY TO SEE.
JUST SHIFT FROM PART TO PART, RELAX, BLINK, AND THE EYESIGHT BECOMES CLEAR.

FOR YEARS SCHOOLS HAVE TAUGHT THAT LARGE PRINT IS BETTER FOR THE EYES.
BATES TEACHERS STATE THAT LARGE PRINT CAUSES EYESTRAIN AND UNCLEAR EYESIGHT BECAUSE THE EYES HAVE TO TRAVEL OVER MORE AREAS OF THE LETTER TO SEE IT AND THIS IS DIFFICULT, SLOW, WHEN TRYING TO READ, SO THE PERSON STARTS TO STARE, DIFFUSE, TRY'S TO SEE ALL PARTS OF THE LETTER AT ONCE, CENTRAL AND PERIPHERAL FIELDS EQUALLY CLEAR AT THE SAME TIME WHILE NOT SHIFTING, AVOIDING CENTRAL FIXATION IN AN ATTEMPT TO HURRY AND MOVE ALONG THE SENTENCE.
THESE ARE INCORRECT VISION HABITS THAT CAUSE MENTAL STRAIN, EYE MUSCLE TENSION, EYESTRAIN AND UNCLEAR EYESIGHT. 

SMALL AND FINE PRINT IS EASY, RELAXING TO THE EYES.
FINE PRINT IS EASY TO READ, THE EYES ACTIVATE CENTRAL FIXATION AUTOMATICALLY AND THE EYES DO NOT HAVE TO TRAVEL OVER A LARGE AREA TO SEE EACH LETTER, WORD.
THE MIND, EYES... STAY RELAXED AND THE PRINT IS SEEN CLEAR.
PLACING A WHITE BOOKMARK UNDER THE SENTENCE BEING READ AND USING THE FINGER TO POINT TO THE WORDS BEING READ, MOVING THE FINGER ALONG UNDER THE SENTENCE AS THE EYES MOVE ALONG THE SENTENCE IMPROVES CENTRAL FIXATION AND PREVENTS EYESTRAIN.
CHILDREN DO THIS NATURALLY.

READ FINE PRINT DAILY, OUTSIDE IN THE SUNLIGHT, SUN SHINING OVER THE SHOULDER ONTO THE PRINT.
READING VERY SMALL FINE PRINT IMPROVES THE CLARITY OF CLOSE AND DISTANT EYESIGHT BECAUSE FINE PRINT CAUSES THE EYES TO USE PERFECT CENTRAL FIXATION, THE
EYES CENTER ONTO A VERY SMALL POINT, PLACING IT IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD.
CENTRAL FIXATION IS A MAIN CORRECT VISION HABIT THAT RESULTS IN PERFECT CLEAR EYESIGHT, CLEARER THAN 20/20.
READING FINE PRINT IS A MAIN NATURAL EYESIGHT IMPROVEMENT ACTIVITY THAT PRODUCES CLEAR CLOSE AND DISTANT VISION.
IMPROVING THE CLARITY OF VISION AT ANY DISTANCE AUTOMATICALLY IMPROVES VISION AT ALL DISTANCES.

USE CENTRAL FIXATION; KEEP THE WORD, LETTER THE EYES ARE LOOKING AT IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD AND MOVE THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD ALONG THE SENTENCE PASSING OVER THE LETTERS, WORDS BEING READ.
SOME BATES TEACHERS TELL THE STUDENT TO READ THROUGH THE 'CENTER OF THE WORDS' FOR EVEN MORE EXACT CENTRAL FIXATION AND THIS DOES PRODUCE CLEAR EYESIGHT. (Taught by Thomas Quackenbush)
TRY READING THROUGH THE CENTER OF THE WORDS TO SEE THE TV CABLE CHANNEL GUIDE CLEAR AT  A DISTANCE OF 10 TO 20 FEET.
SOME STUDENTS FIND IT EASIER AND MORE NATURAL TO LET THE EYES MOVE ABOUT FREELY ALONG THE SENTENCE LETTERS, WORDS.

EITHER WAY IS OK.   

AS LONG AS THE EYES MOVE, USE CENTRAL FIXATION, SHIFT FROM POINT TO POINT, THE VISION REMAINS CLEAR.

THIS OCCURS QUICKLY, AUTOMATICALLY , NO EFFORT AS THE EYES MOVE ALONG THE SENTENCE.

                                           
REMEMBER; DON'T TRY TO SEE CLEAR.
EFFORT INTERFERES WITH THE EYES NATURAL FUNCTION AND CAUSES STRAIN AND BLUR.
JUST USE CORRECT VISION HABITS, RELAX AND THE EYESIGHT WILL BECOME CLEAR ON ITS OWN.

READING FINE PRINT AND CENTRAL FIXATION ALSO IMPROVES ACCOMMODATION AND CONVERGENCE AT CLOSE DISTANCES WHICH BRINGS FAST VISION IMPROVEMENT.

READING FINE PRINT RELAXES THE MIND AND EYES BECAUSE THE MIND, EYES MUST RELAX PERFECTLY TO SEE IT CLEAR.
CENTRAL FIXATION, ALSO ACTIVATED BY THE FINE PRINT ALSO RELAXES THE MIND, EYES.
WORRYING ABOUT THE CLARITY OF VISION INTERFERES WITH THIS RELAXATION AND PREVENTS CLEAR VISION, SO, RELAX, "FORGET ABOUT THE EYES", AND ENJOY
READING THE PRINT AND THE FIRST FLASHES OF CLEAR VISION WILL OCCUR SOON.

ALWAYS READ SOMETHING YOU ENJOY.
THIS KEEPS THE MIND POSITIVE, INTERESTED IN THE SUBJECT, KEEPS THE MIND, EYES RELAXED AND EYESIGHT CLEAR.

AVOID BENDING THE HEAD, NECK DOWN OR PUSHING THE NECK, HEAD FORWARD WHEN READING OR LOOKING AT ANY OBJECT.
USE GOOD POSTURE; SIT UP STRAIGHT. NECK STRAIGHT AND RELAXED.
PLACE THE PRINT ON A BOOK HOLDER UP AT EYE LEVEL IN THE CENTER OF THE VISUAL FIELD.

DR. BATES TAUGHT THAT READING FINE PRINT IN DIM LIGHT WITHOUT EFFORT, WITHOUT STRAIN, WHILE IN A RELAXED STATE GREATLY IMPROVES THE VISION.

HERE'S ANOTHER ARTICLE BY DR. BATES;


Better Eyesight Magazine  Dec. 1919


by Ophthalmologist William H. Bates

THE MENACE OF LARGE PRINT

 If you look at the big "C" on the Snellen test card (or any other large letter of the same size) at ten, fifteen, or twenty feet, and try to see it all alike, you may note a feeling of strain and the letter may not appear perfectly black and distinct.  If you now look at only one part of the letter, and see the rest of it worse, you will note that the part seen best appears blacker than the whole letter when seen all alike, and you may also note a relief of strain.   If you look at the small "c" on the bottom line of the test card, you may be able to note that it seems blacker than the big "C".   If not, imagine it as forming part of the area of the big "C".  If you are able to see this part blacker than the rest of the letter, the imagined letter will, of course, appear blacker also.  If your sight is normal, you may now go a step further and note that when you look at one part of the small "c" this part looks blacker than the whole letter, and that it is easier to see the letter in this way than to see it all alike.

If you look at a line of the smaller letters that you can read readily, and try to see them all alike-all equally black and equally distinct in outline-you will probably find it impossible, and the effort will produce discomfort and, perhaps pain.  You may, however, succeed in seeing two or more of them alike.  This too, may cause much discomfort, and if continued long enough, will produce pain.  If you now look at only the first letter of the line, seeing the adjoining ones worse, the strain will at once be relieved, and the letter will appear blacker and more distinct than when it was seen equally well with the others.

If your sight is normal at the near- point, you can repeat these experiments with a letter seen at this point, with the same results.  A number of letters seen equally well at one time will appear less black and less distinct than a single letter seen best, and a large letter will seem less black and distinct than a small one; while in the case of both the large letter and the several letters seen all alike, a feeling of strain may be produced in the eye.  You may also be able to note that the reading of very fine print, when it can be done perfectly, is markedly restful to the eye.

The smaller the point of maximum vision, in short, the better the sight, and the less the strain upon the eye.  This fact can usually be demonstrated in a few minutes by anyone whose sight is not markedly imperfect; and in view of some of our educational methods, is very interesting and instructive.

Here Ophthalmologist Bates lists a few examples of how schools and other institutions have allowed only large print to be read by small children.  See entire article and many of Dr. Bates  "Better Eyesight Magazines"  at;  http://www.Central-Fixation.Com  and on page 35, 36 of this web site.

Yet it has just been shown that large print is a strain upon the eyes, while the retinoscope demonstrates that a strain to see at the near-point always produces hypermetropia (commonly but erroneously called "farsight").  We should naturally expect, therefore, to find hypermetropia very common among small children; and it is.  Of children eight and a half years old in the public schools in
Philadelphia, Risley found that more than eighty-eight  percent were hypermetropic, and similar figures may be found in all statistics of the subject.  The percentage declines as the children become older, but hypermetropia, or hypermetropic astigmatism, remains at all ages the most common of all errors of refraction.  Hypermetropia is, in fact, a much more serious problem than myopia, or nearsight.  Yet we have heard very little about it, for the specialists have concluded, from its prevalence and its tendency to pass away or become less pronounced with the growth of the body, that it is the normal state of the immature human eye and therefore beyond the reach of preventive measures.  It is true that many young children are not hypermetropic, but this fact is easily disposed of  by the theory that the ciliary muscle alters the shape of the lens in such cases sufficiently to compensate for the shortness of the eyeball.

The baselessness of this theory, as well as the relation of large print to the production of hypermetropia, may be demonstrated by the fact that the condition can be relieved, and has been relieved in numerous cases, by the reading of fine print, combined with rest of the eyes.  A child of eight was cured in a few visits by this means.   Yet according to the British association she should not, at this age, have been allowed to read any type larger than 12-point, with capitals more than an eighth of an inch in height.  Many grown people have been cured of hypermetropia in the same way, and in all forms of functional imperfect sight the reading of fine print, when it can be done with comfort, has been found to be a benefit to the eyes.  Even straining to see fine print is sometimes a benefit in myopia.

Bates teachers teach relaxation and correct vision habits that prevent strain when reading fine print.
Dr. Bates cured his own eyesight; obtained clear close and distant vision with Natural Eyesight Improvement.
Dr. Bates shows his students how to experience use of incorrect vision habits that result in discomfort and blur and how to experience use of correct vision habits resulting in comfort and clear eyesight as described in this article.
+ Incorrect vision habits = Staring, eye immobility, trying to see all parts of a object, and/or two or more objects equally clear at the same time without moving the eyes; not shifting from object to object, not shifting from part to part on a object and
not using central fixation; not seeing one object/one small part of the object clearest at a time in the center of the visual field results in eyestrain, discomfort and blur.
+ Correct vision habits = Central fixation; seeing one object clearest at a time in the center of the visual field and seeing one small part of the object clearest at a time in the center of the visual field and, shifting from part to part on the object results in relaxation, comfort and clear eyesight.
When the student recognizes the cause of blur, he/she learns to avoid it and use the eyes correct resulting in clear eyesight.


                                                                                                                                                       READ IN THE SUNLIGHT

FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT IMPROVES THE CLARITY OF EYESIGHT.
                                                          
THE EYES HAVE DEVELOPED OVER MILLIONS OF YEARS DUE TO EXPOSURE TO AND FUNCTION WITH SUNLIGHT. THE EYES ARE BUILT FOR ABSORBING, USING SUNLIGHT.
THE EYES, BRAIN AND BODY NEED EXPOSURE TO FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT DAILY.
FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT IS OBTAINED BY GOING OUTSIDE IN THE SUN WITHOUT WEARING EYEGLASSES, CONTACT LENSES, SUNGLASSES, TINTED AND COLORED LENSES. 
FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT IS SUNLIGHT THAT IS NOT FILTERED THROUGH GLASS, PLASTIC...
ALL EYEGLASS LENSES, CONTACT LENSES SUNGLASSES, TINTED, COLORED LENSES INCLUDING WINDOW GLASS/PLASTIC AT HOME. WORK, IN CARS, BUSES... BLOCKS OUT PART OF THE SUNS LIGHT SPECTRUM CAUSING PARTIAL SPECTRUM, UNBALANCED LIGHT TO ENTER THE EYES.
LIGHT TRAVELS FROM THE EYES TO THE BRAIN, UP AND DOWN THE SPINE TO ALL ORGANS, GLANDS, SYSTEMS, EVERY CELL, PART OF THE BODY.
WHEN THE LIGHT IS UNBALANCED THE EYES, BRAIN AND BODY RECEIVE ABNORMAL LIGHT ENERGY SIGNALS WHICH IMPAIRS THE HEALTH AND FUNCTION OF THE EYES, BRAIN, ALL ORGANS, GLANDS, SYSTEMS, AREAS OF THE BODY.
UNBALANCED, PARTIAL SPECTRUM LIGHT IMPAIRS MELATONIN, SEROTONIN AND OTHER HORMONE/CHEMICAL BALANCE, PRODUCTION IN THE BRAIN/BODY RESULTING IN DISRUPTED SLEEP CYCLE, DEPRESSION, LOWERED MEMORY, IMAGINATION, CONCENTRATION...AND HEALTH IMPAIRMENT.
WHEN FULL SPECTRUM, BALANCED SUNLIGHT ENTERS THE EYES; THE EYES, BRAIN, BODY RECEIVE CORRECT LIGHT ENERGY SIGNALS, FUNCTION CORRECT AND REMAIN HEALTHY.

ARTIFICIAL INDOOR LIGHTS PRODUCE UNBALANCED LIGHT, PROVIDING ONLY PART OF THE SUNS LIGHT SPECTRUM.
WHEN WORKING, READING INDOORS ALWAYS KEEP A OPEN WINDOW WITH SUNLIGHT SHINING INTO THE ROOM.
READING OUTSIDE IN THE SUNLIGHT IS THE PERFECT READING LIGHT.

IF THE SUN IS TOO STRONG READ UNDER A TREE. THE EYES WILL STILL RECEIVE NATURAL FULL SPECTRUM LIGHT THROUGH THE TREE BRANCHES.


AVOID FLUORESCENT LIGHT.
FLUORESCENT LIGHTS ARE MOST HARMFUL TO THE EYES.
THEY PRODUCE VERY UNBALANCED LIGHT WITH EXTREMES IN ONE-TWO LIGHT WAVES, ABNORMAL SHADOW AND CONTRAST, FLICKER AND OTHER UNNATURAL EFFECTS.
THIS STRAINS, CONFUSES THE BRAIN, VISUAL SYSTEM, EYE MUSCLES, EYES CAUSING UNCLEAR EYESIGHT, FATIGUE, TENSION, IMPAIRS COLOR, DEPTH, DISTANCE PERCEPTION AND OTHER FUNCTIONS OF THE VISUAL SYSTEM.

THE CONSTANT FLICKER FLUORESCENT LIGHTS PRODUCE IMPAIRS FUNCTION OF THE EYES IRIS, PUPIL CAUSING IT TO CONSTANTLY CONTRACT, UN-CONTRACT, CONTRACT... WITH EVERY FLICKER OF THE LIGHT.

THIS STRAINS, IMPAIRS FUNCTION OF THE IRIS, PUPIL SIZE/ADJUSTMENT TO LIGHT AND DARK, EYES, EYE MUSCLES, RETINA AND BRAIN.
FLUORESCENT LIGHTS IMPAIR HEALTH AND FUNCTION OF THE EYES, BRAIN AND BODY.

IN 2007 THE PUBLIC IS BEING PRESSURED TO BUY/USE THE NEW SMALL AND LARGER FLUORESCENT LIGHT BULBS TO CONSERVE ENERGY.
EXPOSURE TO FLUORESCENT LIGHT AT WORK AND AT HOME CAUSES, INCREASES VISION IMPAIRMENT; BLUR, ASTIGMATISM AND LEADS TO OTHER EYE AND HEALTH PROBLEMS.
EXPOSING THE EYES CORNEA, LENS, RETINA TO THIS UNBALANCED LIGHT CAN LEAD TO MACULA DEGENERATION, CATARACTS AND OTHER EYE DISEASE.

FLUORESCENT LIGHTS ALSO EMIT MERCURY VAPOR AND OTHER TOXIC GASES, SUBSTANCES, RADIATION AND EMFs (ELECTRO-MAGNETIC FIELD RADIATION).
EMF RADIATION, X-RAYS AND OTHER TOXINS EMITTED FROM FLUORESCENT LIGHTS CAUSE FATIGUE, IMPAIRED CONCENTRATION, STRESS, AND HEALTH, VISION PROBLEMS.
SOME LIGHT BULBS CONTAIN LEAD.

THE PLAIN OLD FASHIONED INCANDESCENT LIGHT BULBS DO  NOT PRODUCE FULL SPECTRUM LIGHT BUT THEY ARE BETTER FOR THE EYES AND HEALTH BECAUSE THEY DO NOT PRODUCE EXTREMELY UNBALANCED LIGHT WAVES, THEY DO PRODUCE BETTER SHADOW AND CONTRAST AND DO NOT PRODUCE FLICKER, MERCURY VAPOR, RADIATION AND OTHER TOXINS THAT FLUORESCENT LIGHTS PRODUCE.
THEY DO USE MORE ENERGY WHICH CONTRIBUTES TO POLLUTION.
A LOW ENERGY NON FLUORESCENT BULB NEEDS TO BE INVENTED.
SOME LIGHT COMPANIES SELL FULL SPECTRUM LIGHT BULBS BUT THEY ARE HARD TO FIND AND FULL SPECTRUM FLUORESCENT (AND PLAIN FLUORESCENT) BULBS STILL PRODUCE ABNORMAL LIGHT AND BURN OUT PARTIALLY RESULTING IN PRODUCTION OF PARTIAL SPECTRUM LIGHT.
MOST BULBS ADVERTISED AS FULL SPECTRUM ARE NOT TRULY FULL SPECTRUM. 
FULL SPECTRUM FLUORESCENT BULBS STILL EMIT RADIATION, MERCURY AND OTHER TOXINS.
IF FLUORESCENT LIGHTS ARE THE ONLY SOURCE OF LIGHT AT WORK, BRING YOUR OWN INCANDESCENT AND FULL SPECTRUM LIGHTS TO WORK. THIS WILL HELP BRING A MORE BALANCED SPECTRUM OF LIGHT WITH SHADOW, CONTRAST TO THE WORK AREA AND REDUCE THE UNNATURAL EFFECTS OF THE FLUORESCENT LIGHTS. 

COLORED BULBS; PINK, BLUE, RED... PRODUCE VERY UNBALANCED LIGHT.

READ BOOKS BY JOHN OTT; HEALTH AND LIGHT, AND JACOB LIBERMAN; LIGHT MEDICINE OF THE FUTURE FOR MORE INFORMATION ON FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT AND WHERE TO FIND FULL SPECTRUM, NON FLUORESCENT LIGHT BULBS.
FULL SPECTRUM BULBS OR A MIXTURE OF INCANDESCENT LIGHT BULBS WITH SUNLIGHT THROUGH OPEN WINDOWS, SKYLIGHTS PROVIDE A GOOD SOURCE OF LIGHT. 
PURE FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT THROUGH OPEN WINDOWS WITHOUT ANY ARTIFICIAL LIGHTS IS THE BEST, HEALTHIEST LIGHT.
WHEN AT HOME, WORK, TAKE FREQUENT BREAKS AND GO OUTSIDE OFTEN AND RECEIVE FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT.
FULL SPECTRUM SUNLIGHT IS THE HEALTHIEST LIGHT FOR THE EYES, BODY.
PRACTICE SUNNING DAILY.   
SEE CHAPTER 20, 21, 22, 23 FOR MORE INFORMATION ON SUNLIGHT.

                                                                                        THE WHITE GLOW AROUND WORDS, LETTERS.., WHITE SPACES BETWEEN SENTENCES, THIN WHITE LINE

                                                                                                                                                This is an Old Effective Method Taught by Dr. Bates

 
See The White Glow

Look at a page in a book. See the Black print on white paper in Dr. Bates Better Eyesight Magazine.
1 - Look at the edge of a white piece of paper. Notice that it appears whiter, a glowing bright, pure white line along the edge that is brighter white than the inner areas of the page. Move, shift the eyes along the edge to make the white glowing line appear. This also appears on a white page on the computer screen but is seen best and healthy for the eyes when seen on a real sheet of white paper.
White Glow Around Words, Letters


2 - This same effect is seen anywhere the white page meets, is next, close to the black print, ink. The page is brightest, whitest closest to the edge of the black ink and less white away from it. Example; All areas of the white page next to, contacting the edge of the black ink of a letter, around the outer and inner edge of the letter is brightest white. Same thing appears around a word. Notice that the white spaces inside letters are whiter than areas of the page outside and away from the letters. Areas of the white space inside a letter that are closest to the ink are most brightest white.
+ Look at and shift point to point on the black print and imagine it is dark black and clear.
+ Then, look at and shift on the white page surrounding and inside the black ink and imagine it bright, pure, glowing white.
+ Then, look at, shift on the black print again and imagine it dark black and clear.
+ Repeat these 3 steps.


3 - Look at the white space between two sentences.
Notice it appears whiter, brighter than areas of the page that do not contain print.

Thin White Line Under Words, Sentences
4 - See the thin white line under a sentence;
+ Notice that the area of the space closest, next to the bottom or top of a sentence, next to the edge of the black print appears brighter white than areas of the space away from the sentence, away from
the black ink.
+ Notice that this brightest area close to the sentence forms a thin bright white glowing line directly under and above the sentence. This line is the combined white glow around all of the letters in the sentence. The line under the sentence is straighter, easier to see due to the bottom of most the black letters being level, thus the line is not interrupted by parts of the letters being below the sentence.


5 - The white glow is created by the contrast between the black print and white page and other functions of the eyes, brain, visual system. The white glow is a normal function of the visual system, a normal thing to see and improves the clarity of vision. It is an illusion, but a good, healthy illusion.
Because it is normal; imagining, remembering the white glow helps the eyes, brain, visual system return to normal function with clear vision. Remembering, imagining any normal function of the eyes, visual system (remembering, imagining the white glow, dark black print clear, all objects clear…) improves the clarity of vision.
+ Move the eyes (Central field) along the white space and imagine it is clear, a pure bright white, without gray blur scattering onto it from blurry black print. Look at, shift on and imagine the white space clear. Then; look at, shift on (move the central field upon) the black print and imagine it dark black and clear. Repeat on the white space again, then the print…
(Practice steps 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 with the eyes open, then in the memory, imagination with eyes closed.)

 

The white glow is also seen around blue, green… other colored print.


6 - The white glow can also be seen around, above the top of trees, mountains on the sky in the distance. Shift up from the tree to the sky above the tree, back to the tree, then up to the sky again and the glow will appear. The glow is also called the halo, energy field, aura. Seeing the white glow indicates normal vision, healthy eyes.

 

Avoid teachers that advise you to keep the mind and eyes on the white space or white line while at the exact same time reading-keeping the mind and eyes on the print, the sentence. This is opposite of central-fixation. It's diffusion, eccentric fixation and causes tension, strain, blur. The correct way to see print clear is; to look at the white spaces, white line to relax the mind, eyes. Then; when relaxation occurs and the print flashes clear; move your eyes; mental-visual attention to the print, look directly at it, placing it in the central field to read it. It's ok if the eyes-vision jump around back and forth from the white line to the print; relaxing with the white, then reading, white, then reading.., but; when the eyes read the print, the eyes central field is looking at, moving on the print for perfect easy shifting and central-fixation.  See Dr. Bates explanation here, 8th Question down;


BETTER EYESIGHT

A MONTHLY MAGAZINE DEVOTED TO THE PREVENTION AND CURE OF IMPERFECT SIGHT WITHOUT GLASSES

APRIL, 1929

Questions And Answers


Q - Which is the best method of obtaining relaxation?
A - The object of all the methods I recommend is relaxation. Some patients obtain more benefit from the practice of one method than another.

Q - When palming and remembering black, is it advisable to keep the image stationary and to keep the same image, or is it just as good to shift from one object to another?
A - When palming and remembering black, one should imagine everything remembered to be moving and not stationary. It is necessary to shift from one image or from one object to another.

Q - How long is it necessary to read the test card before obtaining benefit?
A - Some patients by palming and resting their eyes have obtained benefits in a few minutes.

Q - What is most helpful when one is dreadfully nearsighted and finds it almost impossible to see without glasses?
A - Practice palming as frequently as possible every day. Keeping the eyes closed whenever convenient for five minutes ten times a day is also helpful.

Q - I have noticed when I palm that my eyeballs hurt from the pressure. When I loosen this tension the light filters in.
A - Palming is done correctly with the fingers closed and laid gently over each eye, using the palms like a cup. If this is done properly there is no pressure and the light is shut out.

Q - Is there a possibility of palming wrong? I can obtain some benefit, but later I feel strained.
A - Palming may be done properly or it may be done wrong. Read the chapter on palming in my book.

Q - Should children read microscopic type?
A - Yes. Reading microscopic type is a benefit to the eyes of both children and adults.

Q - Dr. Bates says that in reading fine print one should look between the lines. Is this not contrary to the principles of central fixation? To see the print best, should one not look directly at it?
A - One can look between the lines and shift to the black letters with central fixation.    
Look directly at the letters when reading them.  Move back and forth on the white, black, white, black... Rest and shift on the white.

Q - When I look at an object and blink, it appears to jump with each blink. Would this be considered the short swing?
A - Yes. You unconsciously look from one side to the other of the object when blinking.

Q - After palming for ten minutes or longer, my eyes are rested, but I feel sleepy.
A - The palming is not perfect. Try imagining stationary objects to be moving when you palm.
       Shift on the objects in the imagination.

Q - My eyes feel fine after I palm and let my mind drift on various black objects. However, the period is more difficult.
A - Perfect mental pictures of ordinary objects means a perfect mental picture of a period. To try to see is an effort or strain, and produces defective vision. Shift on the period in the imagination.

Q - Should I think only of a black period when palming? Should I imagine my body swaying and the period moving?
A - If it requires an effort for you to think of a period, you should not try to do so. It is just as beneficial to let your mind drift from one pleasant thought to another. When one remembers a period, it should be imagined to be moving from side to side. (as the eyes, mental visual attention is shifting on it.)

Q - Should one always imagine stationary objects to be moving in the opposite direction?
A - When one is riding in a train, one should imagine that telegraph poles and other stationary objects are moving in the opposite direction. When one is walking on the street, he can imagine when looking down, that the pavement is coming toward him; when he looks to the right or left, he can imagine that objects on either side are moving opposite. The object of this is to avoid the stare.

Q - Will you please describe the long swing?
A - The long swing is accomplished as follows: Stand with the feet about one foot apart, turn the body to the right - at the same time lifting the heel of the left foot. The head and eyes move with the body. Now place the left heel on the floor, turn the body to the left, raising the heel of the right foot. Alternate.

Q - How do you practice the variable swing?
A - Hold the forefinger of one hand six inches from the right eye and about the same distance to the right, look straight ahead and move the head a short distance from side to side. The finger appears to move.

Q - What is central fixation?
A - Central fixation is seeing best where you are looking, and worse where you are not looking. That is, when you look at a chair, for instance, do not try to see the whole object at once, look first at the back of it, seeing that part best and other parts worse. Remember to blink as you quickly shift your glance from the back to the seat and legs, seeing each part best in turn.

Q - How much time should I devote to palming each day?
A - The more time one devotes to palming, the quicker will results be obtained, provided one practices correctly. Palming should be practiced for five, ten, fifteen minutes or longer at a time. Some patients obtain more benefits from practicing palming for short periods of time at more frequent intervals.

Q - by Clark Night. Effects during healing, reversal of Presbyopia, Cataract... ;

When first reading fine print up close; if its very blurry, it (or any object up close) can appear to shake around, like jelly when you shift on it. Its due to the eyes shifting movement being tight, large due to eye muscle tension.   One eye might see the object smaller or bigger.  (one eye has more tension in its muscles, its shape, convergence-divergence is imperfect)  A small area of the far outer sides of the vision can appear dark and shaky (like the jelly) when looking very close. Similar to the way sinus pressure on the eyes can cause temporary lights or dark spots. It is harmless. Its from the muscles trying to work correct and changing the eyes shape and movement to normal. Some people report clear-like moving, swirling visual images or white after images of the print and white spaces between sentences when they look away from the close print to the distance. Headache when looking very close.      

All of this is the circulation returning, debris, waste being removed from the eyes, the lens returning movement and hydration, normal nutrient flow and; the eye muscles, outer and the inner lens muscle releasing their tension, aligning and the eye changing back to normal healthy shape. Complete and balanced convergence, divergence, accommodation, un-accommodation returning. Perfect left and right eye alignment. 

All these visual effects disappear as the vision improves. I experienced all these when I was curing my presbyopia. They disappeared and left me with very clear eyesight!

     When the eyesight, eyes are not in advanced stages of blur, tension and/or when relaxation is quickly obtained in any degree of blur, most or all of these temporary healing effects are not experienced.
Neck, shoulder, head muscle tension also has an effect. So release that too.   

Cataract reversal can be similar because both cataract and presbyopia involve the lens and its muscle being tight. This can also effect the eyes shape and outer eye muscles.
