Eyeglasses not just for sharp eyesight, what about visual functioning?

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 worthwhile read. Thanks Steven for your great contribution.

Michel, the incentive comes from the insistence from the consumer. We are in a time

this year of 2012, where the ultimate movement of the political and economic future

of the vision care world will be shaped by the correct perceptions from us, the consumers. 

The ready availability of information and quick distribution of truth in speaking, 

makes this possible. It is time no longer limit our perceptual views based on 

the old models. Corrective Eye surgery and the crippling effects of strong compensating lenses is going to soon be a historic dinosaur.

My optometrist is also working for a Laser eye surgery clinic. There is no incentive for her to improve eye sight in a natural way. Perhaps I need to change optometrist as a first step.....

You are so right Michel. Perhaps, between you, I and others in this group, plus the power of social media, we can begin to bring this new paradigm right into existence within mainstream medicine. That is certainly my intention for the next 8 years and reach my goal by the year 2020.

This is encouraging and frustrating at the same time. Encouraging because the quality of seeing can be improved. It is  frustrating because I have never met an optometrist in The Netherlands who is working this way. Isn't it time to have a worldwide organisation of optometrists being able to really help their patients? I do not have any doubts about the good intentions of my optometrist, but looking outside the (traditional) box might be helpfull for many of us.
