Eyerobics by Marilyn Roy
Bates Method made simple with graphics and charts A massmarket new eye fitness manual which aims at restoring vision. Based on the enormously popular Bates Method, the book is a large format, filled with 'Magic Eye' type charts and graphics to help exercise the muscles of the eye. The author, who successfully restored her own failing eyesight with this method, considers 'vision fitness' as important a part of a healthy lifestyle as aerobic exercise or a balanced diet. She explains: * how the eye works * why people become long or short sighted * other problems such as astigmatism and presbyopia * why your optician prescribes increasingly stronger prescriptions * how corrective lenses gradually worsen eyesight * how to assess your own level of vision acuity * relaxation techniques to prevent computer eyestrain * nutrition and the eye * the eye products 'industry' and how it connives to discourage prevention of common refractive problems. (Opticians never mention the Bates Method).
Marilyn Roy has developed the EyeRobics system and teaches students in community education classes in the USA after correcting her own deteriorating sight at the age of 47.
