Lacks clear prescription,

This review is from: The Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses (Paperback)
This is a very interesting book, it explains a lot of things related to the eyesight, but lacks clear prescriptions for the reader how to apply his method on practice. There are no easily heard or seen descriptions of the exercises that the individual should perform to improve the function of eye.
Nevertheless the book is incomplete perplexing a little bit, it has enough liveliness, humor, and variety. If you are about to improve your eyesight, I would have recommended to read this book first to understand the framework, and then proceed to another books which are based on the Bates method but have sound explanations of what actually the patient have to do, e.g. "The natural way to better eyesight" by J.I. Rodale, "Conscious Seeing" by R. Kaplan, "How to improve your eyes" by M. D., Corbett, "Improve Your Vision Without Glasses or Contact Lenses" by S. M. Beresford, and so forth.

My experiences of the method,
By Scabby Babbage (New Brunswick, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses (Paperback)
This method works but it needs a lot of commitment. If you are able to throw away your lenses and keep to a program which requires an hour out of every day then go for it. However, if you need to wear your specs every day just to function - for driving, computer work etc - then you needn't waste your cash. This won't work for you. I once had a period in my life during which I didn't need to have my glasses on and I was able to practise every day. I gained such an improvement in my prescription that - when I returned to the eye-doctor - I was for the first time qualified to drive without glasses, and, though my eyesight is still not perfect, I have never worn spectacles since. Expect immediate effects, which might seem quite dramatic. After that progress is slower. The four stars I gave this book is because it is the original. There are, however, better expositions of the method on the market.

Sometimes simple is the best,

This review is from: The Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses (Paperback)
As I received information that "old age" vision is not natural and could be corrected I read a few books and Janet Goodrich's book was the best but I never could get into the exercises. Dr. Bate's book, which I assume was written before the 1930s is down to earth and relative simple. I am seeing a difference in just one week. I even finished the book without reading glasses! Some information never gets old.
