The term "normal 20/20" in reality meant that the retina had the capability of 20/20 -- with a proper strength minus lens. The idea that a large number of...
Dear Scientific friends, I can accept that children do some things with their eyes that will "induce" a negative refractive STATE. The only goal for me is to...
Dear prevention-minded friends, This child was "caught" at 20/60 BEFORE she was put in to a strong minus. (The minus would have meant permanent loss of distant...
EskiMonk.txt From: BD Hey, Otis. Finish your initial post by demonstrating how studies performed on MONKEYS can be considered relevant to HUMANS. Factoring ...
Dear Friends, Subject: The Eye's Natural Refractive STATES In the young (Rhesus-primates) the refractive states run from -0.7 diopters to +2.1 diopters (96...
At1month.txt What are the refractive STATES of all fundamental eyes one month after birth? The term "refractive ERROR" has a deadly effect in understanding the...
Dear Morgan, There is not "perfect" way to tell you how to "clear" your vision. Here are some remarks about primates "in the wild", and positive refractive...
Dear Otis, Thanks for the email! The poem was very effective in portraying What you were trying to say. I'll try to picture the story anytime i feel "fed up"! ...
Dear Friends, Subject: Same old song -- ode to the minus-lens in the valley. Morgan, is very easy to "quick-fix" a person with a strong minus lens. Perhaps...
SciProf2.txt Scientific Proof for the Dynamic Eye concept, versus the passive-eye concept. I will discuss this experiment in terms of verifying that: 1. The...
Dear Morgan, That rate of "progress" from 20/100 to 20/50 -- is a suprise. I am very happy for you. But be prepared! This is honestly a SLOW PROCESS! But I...
Dear Otis, I have made some steady progress since the last email. I can now read the 20/50 line with some ease in good light and i can even read some of the...
EskiYong.txt Dear Steve, Subject: Analysis of refractive STATE change in a school environment -- after 8 years, from plus to minus as natural process. I am...

Dear Morgan, I do "harp" on one thing -- and that is to "trust" your Snellen. Often these majority-opinion ODs claim we are "stupid" and "have not a clue" and...
Dear Otis, Regarding my last email, i was confused. Since i saw a change in visual acuity i automatically assumed it was negative. However, i just read 20/50...
MonkLab.txt Subject: Change of refractive STATE -- wild monkeys compared with laboratory monkeys. 1. Wild Monkeys (The control group) N = 598 eyes (of wild...
Dear Morgan, Subject: "Sudden" clarity loss. Or, rapid change in refractive STATE from zero to -2 diopters. The answer, assuming your refractive STATE was...
Dear Otis, Is it normal to see a sudden fall in clarity of vision? I am aware that clarity varies from day-to-day but today my vision seems terrible. Should...
Dear Prevention-minded friends, I personally would avoid the use of an astigmatism "cut", provided I pass the DMV 20/40 line. After you get the astigmatism...

Dear Morgan, When I talk to a person -- then I must TRUST that he makes the measurement correctly. That is why I insisted that you read at 20 feet (the ...
Dear Otis, I have been reading messages in the groups. I read the Nbab (or something similar) post. He says he has 20/40 but then he states he measured this...
Dear Morgan, Excellent. At 20/70 you have a "fighting chance" to clear the 20/60, 20/50, 20/40 lines. None of this is ever "easy". It takes a first-rate mind,...
Dear Otis, How r u? I have checked my vision using my snellen chart i received in the bates method book, i currently see: 20/70. This is already a huge...
