The mail person carried a huge box with Dr. Shomer's brand new book "Building  A Better Mind".  All 693 pages plus two DVD's. A monster of a book that is loaded with amazing information  from Dr. Schomer's years of clinical experience in helping children become better learners. In addition to the profound teachings of Vision Development, Dr Schomer has gone one step further. He has added over 700 reference for science to support the premise that the mind can be improved through vision…

An Optometric colleague, author and expert in Behavioural Vision,  Dr. Steve Gallop, just published a super article on 

lens prescriptions for improving visual function. He talks about compensating and therapeutic lenses, something that is vitally part of the EyeCode® process of reintegrating clear perceptions. You can download his article from this link. 

It may take a while to download, but…

In my last blog posting, I referred to my soul’s expansion. You can read in more detail, but the excerpt was “What hit me intuitively was ‘expansiveness’ or ‘expansion.’…

Thanks to Bill Gottlieb and Bottom Line Publications for including my research on emotions and how it impacts eyesight. In addition they cited relaxation techniques of managing eyestrain and keeping vision fitness. …

Enjoy the video. 

A question I am often confronted with. Last week, I had the possibility to test this on my own son. He developed extreme redness in his right eye. Returning from a school trip abroad, the condition become worse. I requested a long distance photographic diagnosis from an Ophthalmological colleague, pinguecula with a inclusion of a herpes infection.

A family decision was made to conduct an experiment. We would test using a frequency energetic natural anti biotic healing approach before…

In the book The Valkyries, Paulo's wife, Chris, was instructed to look at the horizon by her husband's guide: “...the things that surround you change you - in the same way that you change them.” (p. 28)…

THINKING ABOUT WHAT I HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN ...SEING IS A CREATIVE PROCESS NOT A TACTILE SENSATION LIKE HEARING OR TOUCHING IT HAPPENS IN OUR WHOLE SELFS WE CREATE VISON BASED UPON INTERPRETATION  OF THE  NERVE SIGNALS OF WHAT WE CHOOSE HO LET IN OUR EYES AND CONVERT THAT  IN A  CREATIVE WAY TO A INTERPRETATION OF THE NERVE IMPULSES THAT WE LET IN BASED ON WHAT WE THINK WHAT WE FEEL AND WHAT WE BELIEVE.... WE ARE BODY MIND AND SPIRIT NOT JUST BODY ...THIS BODY IS JUST A SCAFFOLD OF SKIN AN…

"Eyesight markedly improved when people were experimentally induced to believe that they could see especially well, Langer and her colleagues report in the April Psychological Science. Such expectations actually enhanced visual clarity, rather than simply making volunteers more alert or motivated to focus on objects, they assert."

"Langer’s new findings build on long-standing evidence that visual perception depends not just on relaying information from the eyes to the brain…

It is not surprising to my patients and clients in using a holistic approach to eye and vision problems that we consider the whole life of the person.  Seeing and perception is helped when we ask the person in what part of their life is their unfinished business. Another way of saying this is:  "Where do you have problems in your life?"  It can be in perceptions of people and their family, relationships, work and career, and even in sexuality. Over the years I have found a strong…

Sometimes when I am on the road or do not carry my big camera with me, I use my iPhone 4 to take pictures of the Iris. 

I place a magnifier with a light over the lens of the camera. This serves two purposes. One, there is enough light to capture a good photo and secondly, enough magnification to provide sharpness without loss of detail due to pixelation. 

Here are some photos that illustrate the…

I am walking down a street in Europe and come across this advertisement on a ‘bill board’.

Interesting, as I discovered that I ate much less including sweets (hardly!) during my first week of vacation at Roberts Creek in mid-July. Would you like to know why? Are you sure? Are you ready for the answer? It may shock and surprise you, or not.



It was this: it was simply due to the fact that I felt fulfilled. That’s right. Full-filled or filled full or fully filled. My soul and thus…

Research Summary:  

Early abnormal visual experience disrupts neuronal circuitry in the brain and results in reduced vision, known as amblyopia or ‘‘lazy eye,’’ the most frequent cause of permanent visual loss in childhood. It is generally…

In a recent article, former graduate student colleague of mine, Dr. Earl Smith,  posted some very interesting research he has been involved in. Nothing really new for us behavioural Optometrists interested in prevention of myopia techniques. But a worthwhile scientific validation.
