Why Should You Keep Your Eyes Healthy?

Eye Health Advantages

Whether you experience glaucoma, cataracts, astigmatism or any other eye problem, keeping your eyes healthy has so many advantages. The old saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” could not be truer when it comes to eyesight. If you look around you, you will not find many people in the “golden years” who do not wear glasses or many who have not been in glasses for many years;. so many have some kind of eye problems. Doctors attribute this to “old age”. You may not even have to look to people in the “golden years” to find this situation. Eye problems come at all ages and in all forms. These situations can be prevented.

Healthy Eyes

My definition of healthy eyes is seeing clearly far and near and experiencing comfort when doing tasks that require using the eyes extensively. Dr. Wm. H. Bates M.D., Ophthalmologist discovered in the early 1900’s the cause and cure of eye problems. He found in his research that stress in the mind interfered with the natural focusing muscles of the eye. He discovered that vision is psycho-somatic. When the mind is tense, the eyes are tense. He discovered that light sensitivity is an indication of the onset of eye problems. He discovered how to regain healthy eyes and keep them healthy for a lifetime

Physical Therapy For The Eyes

I call the Dr. Bates method “Eye-Robics” because it describes this method so well. It is physical therapy for the eyes. We live in the 21st century, but we have a long way to go. It is my dream to see the day when a child has a vision problem that the parents look into what is going on with the child. To simply fit the child with classes and move on is masking the cause of the problem and sentencing him/her to a road of poorer and poorer eyesight and unhealthy eyes. This over a long period of time results in eye problems later on in life. Dr. Bates discovered that behind the myopia, hyperopia or presbyopia was unconscious fear and anger. He was a true pioneer in the field of vision therapy.
