A Little Eye Exercise History

Eye Exercises for Better Vision

Most people are unaware of the need to perform eye exercises.  Do you think this is this something new?
In the Chinese culture, eye exercises have been around for a very long time. And, closer to home, in the 1900′s,  Dr Bates realized and understood the value and success of eye exercises.  Dr Bates is the father of “eye exercises”

Dr Bates realized that by prescribing stronger glasses over time only treated symptoms, and not the actual underlying cause.  So he started eye exercises, that would actually address the problem, not the symptoms.

Eye doctors do learn about natural vision therapy in their schooling however, most doctors go with prescribing glasses only, and do not address any natural vision therapy with their patients.

Today, there are actually about 1500 Optometrists in the U.S.that do specialize using vision therapy.
