Download or read book The Eye Diet written by Christopher Maloney and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you going blind? I was. Slowly. One morning I woke up and couldn't read labels anymore. My doctor told me it was a normal part of getting older. But I'm stubborn. I thought there must be another way, but no one seemed to have one. So I finally found my own way. I've completely changed how I see my eyes, I've improved my vision, and I'd like to share what I found with you. I would never claim that my results will be your results, so please don't expect that reading this book will magically improve your eyes. Applying what you read may help or it may not. But doing nothing different is likely to make your eyes worse over time. Dr. Christopher Maloney woke up one day and couldn't read labels without taking off his glasses. He asked his eye doctor what it was, and got a shrug. It was just part of getting older. Unwilling to accept eventual blindness, Dr. Maloney researched. He started off convinced eyesight was genetic, and ended up convinced it isn't genetic at all. Along the way, Dr. Maloney found a secret pandemic that doesn't make the nightly news. We're not going blind as we age, we're going blind as a planet. The developed countries of the world are going blind at an astronomical rate, and young people are going blind long before old age can be blamed. Digging deeper, Dr. Maloney found a conspiracy, complete with doctored data, a madman, and an ongoing prejudice against change so pervasive very few are even questioning the conventional wisdom. All Dr. Maloney wanted to find was a way for him to read grocery store labels without taking off his glasses. What he found instead was a fundamental flaw in the medical model of how we think about our eyesight. Join him as he explores hundreds of studies and explains them in simple language. Dr. Maloney can give you the evidence, and you need to be the judge and jury about if what he's saying might affect your eyes.

Download or read book Perfect Eyesight written by Robert A. Zuraw and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Miracle of Perfect Eyesight The Truth About The Eyes It is said that the eyes are the "windows" of the soul. How clear is your vision? Can you see the world without blurry vision or distortion? The so-called "normal" eye can easily read the 20 foot line on the Snellen Eye Test Chart at 20 feet away--this is called 20-20 vision. There is no limit as to how much one can improve their vision beyond the 20-20 range. Healthy eyes are a marvel of nature''s creation. A person with above average eyesight can easily read the 10 foot line (smallest bottom line on the Snellen Eye Test Chart), at 20 feet away--20-10 vision! I have seen people who can read the 10 foot line at 50 to 60 feet away--60-10 vision. This is called "telescopic vision." There is also no limit to reading small "Microscopic Type Print"--known as "microČscopic vision." There is no limit to how sharp and clear one can see in the distance and close-up. We are all walking, talking, seeing miracles of Great Nature. The sages say human beings are "solidified sunlight," or "trails of light," because our eyesight and our very life is totally dependent on the Solar Orb! We would all become blind without the healing rays of sunlight upon our retina. Sunlight also gives us natural Vitamin D for healthy skin and eyes. The eye training secrets contained in this book have taken me from 20-600 (progressive advanced myopia, or blind without glasses), to better than 20-20 vision. If you practice and are persistent in your eye training, you too can improve vision quickly. Eye Muscles Accommodation: The Mystery Unveiled In order to "see" properly, the eyes must accommodate. Accommodation takes place when focusing on various distances--close and far. Which muscles are doing the focusing during accommodation is debatable among Ophthalmologists. Dr. Helmholtz, an early eye doctor, found that only the "ciliary" eye muscles do the accommoČdating. The Helmholtz Theory is the "accepted belief" of most modern eyeglass doctors. Dr. Bates, a natural eye specialist, felt that the two oblique eye muscles performed eye accommodation by compressing the round eyeball in the middle and making it longer horizontally. Dr. Bates cut these muscles in rabbits and found the eyes could not accommodate. When he injected a drug to paralyze the oblique muscles, the eyes failed to accommodate. When he put together the severed muscles and washed out the drug, the rabbit''s eyes were able to accommodate again. The Helmholtz theory holds that accommodation is due to the expansion and contraction of the crystalline lens, caused by the action of the ciliary muscle. Dr. Bates, through his experiments, discovered and proved that it is not the crystalline lens but the six external muscles that act upon the eyeball and give the eye its ability to adjust and accommodate to near and far objects. The fact that patients who have had the crystalline lens removed are still able to see, and have the power to accommodate, should be convincing proof of this theory. It is obvious both the oblique muscles and the ciliary muscles work in conjunction when focusing. Here is the reason why--the normal eye when looking at a distant object becomes shortened, and when looking at a close object is elongated. The external muscles--oblique, recti, iris and the ciliary muscles all enable the eyes to accommodate properly. The external muscles lengthen and shorten the eyeball to enable light rays to fall upon the macula. The iris adjusts the pupil for the amount of light necessary to see clearly. And the ciliary muscle contracts the lens to focus upon the object. The ciliary muscle changes the lens and directs the rays of light to focus upon the macula or center of sight. While looking at a distant object of more than twenty feet away, the rays come into the eyes parallel. When looking at a close point rays come into the eyes at an angle. The normal eye must accommodate these rays in order to see clearly a close or distant point. All rays fro
