Bates by; Thomas R. Quackenbush. Natural Vision (Eyesight) Improvement books and Children's Natural Vision books by; Janet Goodrich.

Bates' Better Eyesight Magazine and original book and new version of his book; Perfect Sight Without Glasses. Other popular Natural Vision Improvement books, courses, sunlight and health... There are many more books. Iridology-how to determine health by the state of the eyes' iris. Discovered by a man that healed an owl back to health and noticed how the owl's iris changed as its health improved. (Nutrition books for the body, brain, eyes are omitted on this page due to it being very hard to find books with 100% safe, healthy, natural foods, herbs...) See the Nutrition page on the website and pages, chapter in our books; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id21.html  And the Vitamins page; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id90.html  There are many more books I like, have learned a lot from, but they have a few things that can be harmful, that I do not teach. So, I have not placed them here. A few of the books posted here by teachers, authors contain some things I disagree with, but the main training they provide is helpful, most of them are the best teachers. WARNING; I am against the use of; pinhole glasses, eye stretches, auto-stereograms (magic eyes pictures/artificial 3-D), the plus lens method, use of contact lenses, elective cornea surgery, certain eye drops and other unnatural, harmful methods, treatments. Example; Some teachers' books contain yoga type eye movement exercises that are harmful; eye stretches; looking-stretching-forcing the eyes far to the left or right, up, down.., forcing the eyes immobile in that position while the head/face does not move with the eyes. The head/face is in a opposite direction. This exercise is unnatural, is not the Bates Method. It strains, tenses the eye muscles, prevents shifting, central-fixation, normal eye movement, tenses the muscles in the face, head, neck, impairs the vision, can tear the vitreous, retina... The true Bates Method teaches; to let the eyes move (shift) freely. To avoid staring/eye immobility. To use central-fixation and to let the head/face move with the eyes, to face the same direction the eyes move to. This keeps perfect, relaxed central-fixation, shifting eye movements, convergence, divergence... The eyes, head/face, neck, shoulders, body muscles relaxed, moving easy. Vision is clear. Copy the eye/body movements of a person that has relaxation, clear vision, does not wear eyeglasses. Children with normal vision are perfect natural vision examples. To learn the True Bates Method; Read Dr. Bates' book Perfect Sight Without Glasses and his Better Eyesight Magazine, books by Thomas Quackenbush, Aldous Huxley. Then it is easy to select a TRUE Natural Vision teacher, author. Dr. Bates' books, magazine are safe, they contain 100% natural, healthy practices. (Avoid impersonators who alter his public domain book, magazine and add unnatural practices.) The new version of Dr. Bates' original TRUE book (see top of page) has extra directions for the Sunlight Treatments and other practices. Added by Clark Night.  Some of the books on this webpage teach a few unnatural methods, but the books also teach many beneficial practices, and the Bates Method. Keep the good from these books and avoid the bad things-that are unnatural, against the Bates Method. Some new practices and additions to original treatments (figure eight, brain hemisphere activation/ integration, EFT, karate...) have been added to the Bates' Method through the years since the 1800's. These are beneficial. For the entire list of unnatural teachers/methods to avoid; Read the Directions, Warnings, Unnatural Methods... PDFs on this page; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id110.html  See the Bates Method History page for honest teachers, more information, how to detect/avoid unnatural teachers, methods, books; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id4.html The copyright in our books list the harmful methods to avoid.

Search for Color Changing lamps, colored lights; See the Sunlight and Color Treatment chapters in the book Do It Yourself- Natural Eyesight Improvement. For artificial light; Use only Full Spectrum Lights.
Avoid fluorescent lights. Fluorescent lights (including the large tubes and the new small curled... energy saving fluorescent bulbs) emit toxic mercury, X-rays and other harmful substances. They burn out partially emitting unhealthy partial spectrum/unbalanced light, abnormal shadow, contrast. Use a variety of plain full spectrum 100 watt and stronger light bulbs mixed with pure sunlight through open windows.
Exact as possible to pure full spectrum sunlight. There are various types of healthy bright full spectrum lights. Careful; do not get too close to very strong lights; they can burn the eyes, skin.

 Avoid Pinhole Glasses;

Pinhole Glasses block the normal function of the eyes. They prevent; correct-relaxed-natural eye shifting movements, central-fixation, full sunlight, perfect accommodation, convergence, un-accommodation, divergence. They continually 'on and off' block the retina's macula, fovea (central field of vision), block part of the peripheral field and disrupts other eye, vision functions. They impair function of the brain, left and right brain hemispheres, visual cortex with the eyes, eye muscles, the balance, coordination... This leads to vision impairment. See warnings on this page; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id114.html  Move down that page to learn how to make a safe type of pinhole device out of paper to use temporarily, sparingly until the vision improves with use of the Bates Method. (This helps to avoid use of eyeglasses.)
Dr. Bates' book; Perfect Sight Without Glasses has pictures, directions for making another safe pinhole device version for the left and right eyes; Click Here for the free GoogleBooks version.
 
 

 

                
      
Feet arch supports for good posture, balance, movement, relaxed and aligned foot bones, back, shoulders, neck... (I prefer mother nature's natural arch, but sometimes people need arch/foot support. If the supports cause arch, foot, ankle, back pain; they are too high, incorrect shape, size or you may not need them. I used them for years with benefit to my back, spine. In older age; after injuring the top of my foot with a rock, twisted ankle and being overweight; I had to stop using the plastic arch supports. I changed to the soft rubber type and sometimes wear soft rubber shoes without arch supports.) A shoe, foot specialist told me; arch supports that are put in the shoes on top of the inner sole are not good; they slip, move out of alignment and can misalign and injure the foot bones, muscles, ligaments... He says you need the arch support to be built inside/under the shoe's innersole 'as part of the shoe' so it does not move out of correct placement.
Physical Therapy elastic rope cords. Gazelle by Tony Little for muscle, joint exercise, movement, weightlessness, a healthy heart. Also good for body organs, eyes. Exercise bike for strong, aligned arms, shoulders, neck, legs. The machine should pedal forward, backward and have resistance adjustments. Cures shaky hands, arms from typing, weakness, alcohol addiction. Use with nutrients, vitamins B-1, B-12, B-3 niacin... Place the bike machine at shoulder level (good posture) when exercising arms. See our free e-book; Do It Yourself- Natural Eyesight Improvement for physical therapy, neck relaxation, strengthening, natural, safe alignment of the neck, body bones by normal, natural movements. This produces clear eyesight. Natural body movement and professional muscle massage is a safe alternative to Chiropractic. Chiropractic can cure many health problems, but it CAN and HAS caused severe injury, vertigo, stroke, impaired eyesight and eye movement, death... See the chiropractic warnings page; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id150.htm Three chiropractors injured me. One HONEST chiropractor cured me, and now I stay with only natural movements and massage. Massage can also be dangerous if done wrong. Avoid Massage Therapists that press on the spine, bones. Only the muscles should be massaged to release knots, tension, waste build up, pain... For further help; seek a medical doctor, a honest, experienced Osteopath. I like DORN; (even with his natural treatment; I was told not to do certain neck treatments in his course due to my past injury from the dishonest chiropractors). Dorn is honest; I use his movement exercise; moving my arms and legs a certain way with a head movement; it naturally aligns my neck, upper and lower spine... Never had a bad result! https://www.youtube.com/user/Thomashealer/videos His website has free PDFs, a lot of training, pictures; https://www.spynamics.com/index.html  Clark Night YouTube video - Acupressure Points, Muscle Massage... for Clear Eyesight; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc4id-iSv0g

See the American Free Press for more water filters, purifiers;  https://www.americanfreepress.net/
 

     Make your own steam distilled water. Remove fluoride, chlorine, parasites, germs and other toxins from public tap water. Boil it and filter it first through other water filters for extra purity. Use only distillers, filters, hoses, containers that are pure iron, glass.., a healthy material. No plastics, aluminum, copper/lead, cobalt.., no unhealthy metals, substances. Water steam distillers are useful, BUT; they remove healthy live ions, energy, oxygen and minerals... from the water. And; when you drink it, as the water removes toxins from the body, it also pulls vitamins, minerals and other healthy nutrients... out of the body. Malnutrition, health problems can occur. Use the distilled water only occasionally to purify the body or in times of public or store bought water contamination. Try to find a source of pure, unaltered water. This is hard to find. There's toxins, drugs, germs.., broken water, sewer pipes in the land in many cities, towns. Boiling water helps but it might alter the water and it does not remove chemicals... For water filters; avoid reverse osmosis because it is similar to steam distilled water. But, it helps in combination with distilled to get purity. Its a complicated subject that needs study; how to make PURE, natural water!? And how to re-mineralize, return oxygen, energy..? Distillers cannot always remove parasites, bacteria... Copying bottled water companies' formulas may work, but even that needs to be improved.  
 
For soap; Use pure, chemical free glycerin soap, shampoos... No perfumes, dyes, chemicals, aluminum, SLS, parabens, strange herbs... They get into the skin, then the blood stream. Anything placed on the skin must not contain chemicals, toxins. Avoid yellow and other colored soaps. Use only the 100% CLEAR pure soap as shown above ^. Some natural substances, colors, scents from food, edible flowers, berries... to create soap, color, perfume may be safe. Ask a professional. For toothpaste; best type is in health food stores; they mineralize, regrow... the teeth. Do research. Eat a good diet!
