Kaitlin: -2.25 Diopters, Now NO MORE GLASSES | The Shortsighted Podcast
Ғылым және технология
Update Sept 2022: Going forward new episodes won't be available to the general riff-raff of KZread. We'll post new episodes exclusively for our monthly e-mail subscribers, Le Meow forum members, BackTo20/20 students, and those who bought the Pro Topic video option with Le Rough Guide. Jakey, no longer in the mood for the KZread comment section.
Reducing lens diopters? Don't try any of this at home. This is all highly experimental, unapproved, and definitely requiring research and reading and critical thinking. And still, you're totally doing a thing you're probably not supposed to. Especially for anyone going "but what are the stepz, bro", this is definitely and absolutely not for you. Prefer to listen in your favorite podcast app? 🎙😊 The Shortsighted Podcast is now available on Apple Podcasts (iTunes), Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, Alexa, and many other apps: endmyopia.org/shortsighted-po...
The Jake Origin Story: I grew up with glasses, 5.00 diopter high myopia, and yet today have 20/20 natural eyesight. No surgery, no glasses, I figured out how myopia actually works and how to reverse it (and no, not eye exercises!) The mainstream tells you it's impossible - but the whole concept that myopia is an illness, is complete unscientific nonsense (a 100 billion dollar a year profitable nonsense, though).

Thanks so much for doing a podcast with Kaitlin! I loved reading the blog before so had been hoping you'd interview her. I was the person who couldn't find the url on email haha. Particularly as I'm wearing -2.25 right now and been stuck for 2 years on this
Just started this a couple weeks ago. Hearing of others experiences is a great encouragement, thanks for doing these!
Another great interview. I appreciate those interviews a lot. They give me a good reminder to keep the good habits.
Lots of great stuff here 😊😊 love that these are rolling out again!
That has got to be one of the top 5 SS podcast at least. Very good job by Kaitlin and Jake.
Thanks Jake for the great low myope tips! 1. Reduce close-up 2. Regular activity, involving long distance vision 3. AND THEN (and only then), plus for stimulus. Got it! 🤪 Note to self: *plus is not a magical shortcut*, *pride comes before a step-up*

Mam, what is your eyesight now?
hiking was the key to improving your eyesight. As you said you saw improvement in distance vision as soon as you came back from hiking, same goes for me. I see huge improvement when i play football, or do something in the sun. I think sun improves our eyes mainly.
Very motivating. Thank you Jake and Kaitlin.

how to deal with astigmatism
finally! thanks you!
I really appreciate your honest consideration about 20/20 vision and ciliary spasm example after close up activities. Recovering from myopia is not like to be an emmetropic person. That should be said. An emmetropic eye can see in any condition regardless of the kind of activity. An emmetropic eye can see 20/15 or 20/12 in normal daylight. We, myopes, can achieve a 20/20 vision with naked eyes (that would be amazing) which is what we often call "a life without glasses" or "no more glasses" but a non myopic eye is a different game. It must be said, as well, that perfect eye sight in popularion is pretty rare lately due to massive screen use. Thus we myopes can get to an average slightly poor vision, but yet perfect to live confortably without any correction. Concerning plus lens use you are very cautious, I understand why, but in cases like Kaitlin's one plus lens can be use pretty massively in my opinion. Understanding why it should be use is mandatory of course. Congrats to Kaitlin for amazing results and thanks Jake for your precious work and all the things you do to help and motivate people to get to a better eye sight.

Normal eyes have very little eye spam from reading, so you can have an eye that is just a bit farsighted and still always see clearly in the distance. Ex-myopic eyes still have lots of eye spam doing close-up, so you need to get farsighted to have perfect distance vision. That is why using plus and pushing the eyes toward getting farsighted is the only way for an ex-myopic to have perfect distance vision. I have problems reading without glasses now, but my distance vision is always fine. If you just remove your glasses and go outside frequently, your eyes will never become very farsighted; any eye spam and image get blurred. That is the only failed logic in endmyopia. I don't care if I need reading glasses, but I want my distance vision to always be perfect.
Watching this video not needing glasses for pc anymore... it's amazing!
I'm working on my sleep schedule so I can get back to all my good habits. I need to be on an earlier schedule to succeed at this. It worked so well when I kept a schedule. I was able to improve by 0.25 in about 2 months. Can't wait to work out my schedule and sleep again so I can keep improving.
Thats really awesome
aw man, I'm getting close to not using differentials at the computer and was planning to throw some plus lenses so I could continue my current habits. I took a 15-30 min walk almost every day, but my job and lifestyle usually keeps me tied to a computer. I thought, no problem. My vision has improved mostly from active focus at the computer, so I'll just use +.25 and so on when the time comes. Now Jake is saying, "bad idea, fool!" Arghhhh
I realised something from seeing my niece's infected eye. The infected eye looked smaller even when wide open.. so that means if we have different eye sizes, its a natural behaviour of our body to show its isn't healthy.
jake be more consistent. please 🙏🏼 we need you!

Sir i have just one question please answer it, can vision improve by endmyopia method if you have keratoconus please sir because most people who have keratoconus are just Going for surgery to strengthen the cornea but can't do laser for refractive error like myopia. So my question is just can i clear vision if I have keratoconus
Im assuming she used plus glasses to active focus over her contacts for close up time right?
Hi . working online professionally tend to increase a lot of screen time ehich always haunts me as it can deteriorate eyesight and cause many other problems. What to do in that case is still one of the biggest queries we should discuss about in this channel too. Its my humble request 🙏

@G E T R E K T I was +.75, ya hyperopic, I went in for monovision, didnt even know my distance vision was off lol. Blur adaption was really helping me. Monovision sucked and I found the Todd Becker video, then found Jake. I got the monovision reversed when I realized I should still be able to read. Now my left eye has 2 lasiks and .50 astigmatism. Left eye perfect, right eye 20/25, in the morning its 20/20 for some reason, maybe becase of sherical eqivelent because the eyes stronger when you wake. Where are you at/were at??

I don't think it's 'dangerous', it just likely won't help because your eyes will have a hard time adjusting to that correction which is the whole point of engaging in lenses that are different than your own.
