An updated and revised edition detailing the ‘Bates method’, a technique which claims to the retrain the eye so contact lenses and glasses are no longer needed. The method aims to restore sight by using exercises to relax the eye muscles before retraining the eyes to focus effectively. Prescription glasses act as a prop for the muscles in your eyes and so, over time, the muscles actually get weaker. In fact, in the long term, glasses can only ever weaken your eyes. But, with the Bates Method you can retrain the eye muscles to work again, and perhaps even learn to do without glasses altogether. The Bates Method works two-folds, firstly with a series of exercises that relax and soothe the eye muscles, and secondly, retrains the relaxed eyes to focus effectively. The exercises are simple and easy to follow, and millions around the world have improved their vision using them. The book has influenced whole generations of people who believe that wearing glasses is the best way to improve your eyesight.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR W.H. Bates

Dr W.H. Bates was a respected American Ophthalmologist who practiced mainly in New York. He noticed that the vision of many of his patients was extremely variable and realized that this meant it could be improved. He later gave up his orthodox practice in order to devote his life to discovering, and then showing others how long sight, short sight and astigmatism could be prevented and improved in children and adults without the use of glasses. Dr Bates received his medical degree from the college of Physicians and Surgeons in 1885. He served as a Clinical Assistant at the Manhattan Eye and Ear Hospital, was the attending Physician at the Bellevue Hospital, New York Eye Infirmary, the Northern and Northeastern Dispensary. He was also an instructor in ophthalmology at the New York Postgraduate Medical School And Hospital.
