The headline always has to be a little provocative, but it is possible that this is indeed the case. Quite recently, I pointed out the historical work of Dr. Bates , who considers the main cause of vision problems to be excessive tension in opposing eye muscles, which shape the eyeball, affect the axial length of the eye, and thus focus or defocus the image on the retina. This strain is caused by stress in the brain.  If the brain cannot recognize what it is looking at, this causes stress and increases the tension in the muscles around the eye, including the tension in those muscles that are supposed to remain relaxed. How does modern science view refractive errors? It seems that studies are already emerging that consider feedback systems, in which the eye is exposed to various influences and therefore has to constantly "fine-tune" itself. They call them the GO signal and the STOP signal. The GO signal lengthens the eyeball, while the STOP signal stops this lengthening. Nothi...

After more than ten years since I first became acquainted with the work of Dr. Bates, I am finally returning to the issue of the eyes, which actually started my interest in how the mechanisms in the human body work. At the end of 2012, I put away my glasses, which I had worn almost constantly until then. Since childhood, I have had excellent vision in my right eye, but my left eye is amblyopic. I wore the glasses so that my left eye would not turn off completely, so that the strongly blurred image in the left eye would be at least as large as in the right eye. In fact, I had seen very well all my life, but a few years before that, my eyesight began to deteriorate. I also had eye inflammation almost every year. During one of these, my diopters and astigmatism in both eyes suddenly changed. I was very surprised by this and even more surprised that the ophthalmologists didn't care at all, they would simply prescribe you different diopters and that would be the end of it. Then my diopt...
