How to Naturally Improve Your Vision
What is 2020 vision? 20/20 vision is a term used to express
normal visual acuity (the clarity or sharpness of vision)
measured at a distance of 20 feet. If you have 20/20 vision, you
can see clearly at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that
distance. If you have 20/100 vision, it means that you must be
as close as 20 feet to see what a person with normal vision can
see at 100 feet. 20/20 does not necessarily mean perfect vision.
20/20 vision only indicates the sharpness or clarity of vision
at a distance. There are other important vision skills,
including peripheral awareness or side vision, eye coordination,
depth perception, focusing ability and color vision that
contribute to your overall visual ability

I already heard about this method many years ago, and I was
really impressed with this theory. Then, all of a sudden I could
not find the information anymore. Now I have found it again. And
it makes so much sense. So, I have done further investigation
into this theory. I love researching helpful information. I
would like to share this with you.
The catch is dedicating 25 minutes a day to the exercises and
techniques. The program is very easy-to-follow and is laid out
in a step-by-step, minute-by-minute format. Once you receive the
package you can begin the exercises within 10-15 minutes. How He
Beat It: Optical calisthenics Twenty-six-year-old Orlin Sorensen
dreamed of flying combat missions like his grandfather, but his
20/80 eyesight kept him below standards for naval flight
training (20/30, no glasses or surgeries allowed). Commercial
airlines, however, aren't as strict -- for several years,
Sorensen flew for Horizon Air while wearing glasses. Then came
September 11, leaving the airline industry decimated and
Sorensen flying a lot less. "I was bummed, but I decided to try
to turn my life around," he says.
He used the time to put a curiosity to the test: Can a man
improve his vision by "exercising" his eyes? Inspired by World
War II fighter pilots who used vision-training exercises, and by
a 1920 book by Dr. William Bates (The Bates Method for Better
Eyesight without Glasses), Sorensen stockpiled information until
he had enough exercises to begin his own program. "I trained my
eyes to do things they don't normally do," Sorensen says. "I
treated the program like physical exercise." He "worked out" 25
minutes a day, 6 days a week, for 30 days, doing exercises like
slowly rolling his eyes in a full circle. The results? The navy
measured his vision at 20/30, he no longer needs glasses. A
wholistic orientation to health. Mr. Bates Theorym. Bates also
developed a theory that people with abnormal vision used their
eyes differently than people with normal vision, then created a
system designed to help people to relearn the right vision
habits and to unlearn the wrong habits. Advocates of the Bates
Method claim that relearning and improving the right vision
habits which they assert are inseparably connected to normal
vision. They assert that the Bates Method is a natural method
that improves movement, relaxation, and circulation of the whole
visual system. Theory of accommodation/focusing Accommodation is
the process by which the eye changes focus between objects that
are far and objects that are near. Bates maintained that the eye
focuses, not by the action of the ciliary muscles on the
crystalline lens, but by varying elongation of the eyeball
caused by the extraocular muscles. Benefits from practicing
Natural Vision Improvement can include: * Increased clarity of
sight * Increased mental clarity * Enhanced depth perception * A
more relaxed way of being * More connection with the world
around you * A sense of greater balance and harmony * Greater
awareness * Greater connection with yourself * Better eye health
* Better balance and coordination Almost half a million
Americans underwent corrective vision surgery in 1999 (more than
double the number who attempted it the year before), and
complications that may arise from these procedures are still
uncertain, as the science is so new and untested. Diet and
Vision I have heard the following statement over and over again.
I have also experienced it myself. I began eating a diet
consisting of fruits, vegetables, non-gluten grains, fish,
chicken and no dairy. After a few weeks on this diet I began
noticing a sharpening in my vision. I have noticed this in the
past; an improvement in diet correlating with improvement in
vision. Early studies have indicated that "good" eicosanoids
such as PGE1 reduce macular degeneration. One of the best ways
to increase PGE1 is to follow the Zone Diet and consume extra
fish oil either as fish or fish oil supplements. Many
optometrists are expanding their traditional role to include
other areas that affect eye health, such as nutrition. Research
has shown that nutrition can impact the development of cataracts
and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which are the two
leading causes of blindness and visual impairment among millions
of aging Americans. Nutrition may be particularly important
given that currently, treatment options after diagnosis for
these eye diseases are limited.
