I’ve received a couple of emails during the last week from frustrated people, who told me that “they’re doing exercises for weeks, and see no improvement at all”. So, why is this the ‘burning’ question for some, while not a question at all for others? Unique medical condition? Luck? Let’s analyse…
In my experience, there are two types of people. One type is those who have bought my guide. They read everything I have to say, and go deep into this stuff. These really “get it”. These people see major improvement in their eyesight within the first two weeks. The other type of people I come across are people that go through only some of the articles I post, looking for more exercises, in addition to the ones they’ve already fund online. These people usually see “little to none improvement” in their vision. Now, I’m a firm believer that if you really “get it”, then you are bound to succeed. My teachers say “leave no chance to failure, and you’ll guarantee yourself success”. As I understand that, they imply that when we become Masters’ in whatever we start, we leave no chance to failure. You see, it is the “Masters’” that rule this world, while the rest of us just give into our lazy nature, and only do the bare minimum, while expecting maxim results from the minimum effort we’re putting in… Or we’re working hard, not smart, meaning we do the wrong thing, failing, getting annoyed, trying harder, failing again, getting more annoyed, and, eventually, giving up, altogether. And *that’s* where the problem is. But enough of this philosophy… I’ll now try and analyse why some of you see no improvement in your eyesight, while you think that you should, so that you’ll hopefully identify some of your mistakes, and then correct them.
Have you got the part that say’s that eye exercises don’t work alone? They’re only part of a much larger puzzle, and work in combination with other things.
Your mind. Are you using this powerful tool to achieve your goals? Do you visualise the things you want? Do you believe you can do it, or do you think “no way that’ll work”, before you start anything? If you do, then you didn’t get this part. Go back and rethink it scrupulously, as it’s vitally important to your success.
Health. Do you know that there is a direct correlation between what you eat, and how you’re generally feeling that day? Eat healthy, try keeping 40% of every meal you have consisting of vegetables. Avoid sugars. Avoid artificial, inorganic stuff out of your daily ration. Other things eating healthy entails.
Healthy lifestyle. - How healthy is yours? What does your average day look like? Spend time outdoors every single day. Exercise as many muscles of your body as you can think of throughout your day.
How intensively do you work with your eyesight? Do it too lightly, and you may see slow results. Do you give your eyes a good rest, at least a short one once every hour? Overdo it, and you may find yourself in trouble again. There needs to be a balance.
Maintaining the right state of mind during the day. - Back straight, keeping a smile on your face,a feeling up. Perhaps you thought this is “not that important”, and you’re not paying enough attention to this part? It is important. My teachers spend around 40% of their time stressing just that one point.
So, there’s a process behind the whole improving eyesight naturally stuff, and this is why it’s important to follow a wholesome system when restoring your eyesight, and not just doing the eye exercises, on and off, in between work. :o)

Although this is the “how long is a peace of string”-type of question, since I have some experience with improving eyesight naturally, I will attempt to answer this question. It sure is a burning question that is amongst the first to come to the mind of people who’ve decided that they don’t need glasses for their vision anymore. It is also one that can only be answered with the same precision that one may get when one tries to hit two targets with one bullet, i.e. it is almost impossible to do, unless things line up perfectly.
But ere are some factors that determine the time taken to restore eyesight… How old are you, and what condition do you have? If you are over 40 and you have Mucular Degeneration, teen you are different from someone who is in their twenties, and with a mare Myopia. Would you agree? And it is very difficult to find any sort of statistics on this, which would obviously help, since we could then juust take a bunch of people in the same group, and then average out the time it took them to cure their eyes. However,since this stuff is categorised as the “alternative medicine”, nothing official is published, or, if published, it is probably |unpublished” just as quickly because of the people in the industry. And , while Myopia (Shortsightedness) & Hyperopia (Longsightedness) are most common ones, there are numerous amounts of other conditions out there, such as Astigmatism, Presbyopia, Strabismus, Amblyopia (aka Lazy Eye), Age-Related Mucular Degeneration (ARMD), and so on. Eye exercises help cure all of these, but the time it takes to full eyesight restoration may differ to each one.
How well can you relax your eye muscles? All of the exercises are based around one thing, which is to relax yur eye muscles first. If you don’t relax your eye muscles, then it is highly unlikely that anything will change for you with regards to eyesight, if you only, mechanically, follow eye exercises. You see, bad eyesight is caused by tensed eye muscles, that alter the shape fo the eyeball, thus creating the problem of imperfect vision. So this is quite important to grasp, and the speed of your progress with your sight will heavily depend upon your ability to relax your eye muscles. And it’s not easy at the start, and so that’s why you’ll need guidance on not only the relaxation techniques alone, but, preferably, guidance with doing them in the most efficient way, so that you get your eyes into shape in the shortest time possible.
Another thing is,your level of concentration that is important here. In life, if you want to master something, anything, be it playing your favourite video game, your martial art’s hobby, or your money-bringing profession, you need to devote your full attention to this task. How well you do this will determine your level of mastery, as well as your progression speed. And since we, as humans, are lazy, in general, this needs understanding, and work. Lot’s of work, for some…
At the end of the day, what you can do to increase the speed of your eyesight improvement depends on what you know, which comes to what guide you follow, i.e. how well it gets though to you everything needed to succeed. From my personal experience, it took me over two months to restore my near -5 eyesight, and I am very happy with that. I think the time that I spend on my eyesight as well as self-healing during the 2-3 months period, is one of the best ways I could have spent my time, period. Another peace of statistics I know is that in Russia, I know of one place, it’s called the “Institute of a Human Being” (a rough translation…), where they study self-healing and a load of other interesting stuff… And in their experience, they see people that restore eyesight with the speed of a dioptre per week. And, apparently, it *can* be done faster than this, but not recommended, because “going too fast may actually slow you down”. And I believe them, and a diptre per week is fast enough for me… wouldn’t you agree? And it actually took me two times longer, i.e. a little less than a dioptre per week, or so. But do you think I am upset about that? :o) Seeing clearly without glasses or contact lenses is AMAZING, and I’d recommend it to anyone who’s still wearing these things, after knowing this!
