What inspired me to spread the word about plus lens prevention was the desire to stop others from being trapped on the progressive myopia downward spiral. I never figured out plus lens therapy for myself, but stumbled upon it via my own vision therapy efforts. Reading the book “Improve Your Vision Without Glasses or Contact lenses” really opened my eyes to the short-sightedness (pardon the pun) of traditional optometry, and from there on I became very interested in the subject and managed to google sites like myopia.org,i-see.org, and seeing.org which is where I learned about plus lens therapy, the Bates method, Power Vision System, the Bershak Method etc.
I haven’t got any particular suggestions for webmasters on how to improve their sites. I guess it depends on what audience the sites are aimed at. Your site, I-see.org for example, does a great job at what it’s supposed to do, which is (presumably) being a large library of vision therapy resources, but it is probably not an ideal place to direct newbies to as there are a lot of links and technical articles covering many different aspects of vision therapy. Myopia.org is also a good site, but it is a little confrontational and scary. At the moment, I’m leaning towards directing people to preventmyopia.org, which seems to condense the most relevant information on myopia prevention down to a single page, and also has a newbie-friendly flash animation. I guess I’m just looking for any sites aimed at people with no prior experience of vision therapy or myopia prevention. Any further recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
