Welcome to Simply Vision

Simply Vision is a website dedicated to the exploration, explanation, excavation, extrication, and elucidation of natural vision improvement. Don't worry -- here at Simply Vision, we'll go lightly on the circumlocution but heavy on the demythologization. In short, we'll be addressing the topic of refractive errors in general with an emphasis placed on myopia or nearsightedness -- what it is, how it starts, and what can be done to get rid of it, naturally. Maybe you're new to the idea of improving your vision naturally or maybe you've been swinging and palming for years. Maybe you wear glasses or maybe you don't. Maybe you've read about eye exercises before or maybe you haven't. Maybe you like pizza or maybe you have a hairy back. Whatever the case, I think you'll find something of interest here, and at the very least, it will give you a nice break from that stack of work sitting next to you.

Unfortunately, some people are not aware of the fact that vision can be improved naturally. There are many documented cases of people who have improved their vision naturally without the risk and expense of laser surgery which is so popular today. One of these people was William Bates.

Generally speaking, Dr William H. Bates (1860 - 1931) is recognized as the pioneer in the field of natural vision improvement. Again, many people have never heard of Dr Bates or his methods of swinging, palming, and practicing central fixation. Other people have heard of Dr. Bates and the Bates method, but they summarily reject his ideas with a cursory flick of their wrist without conducting any type of personal research of their own. As a pioneer in this exciting field, Dr. Bates put forth many new and unique hypotheses regarding the cause and cure of refractive errors.

Though I believe Dr. Bates provided many vision improvement answers, I don't believe he answered or perhaps even asked all of the right questions. Even he himself apparently scratched his head at times and wasn't quite sure why some people were considered curable while others weren't. Building on his ideas, I have developed my own theory regarding the cause and cure of refractive errors, including, but not limited to, myopia (nearsightedness) and hyperopia (farsightedness). I call this theory the Biomechanical Congruency Theory of refractive errors, and in this website I will set forth the particulars of this theory.
