It's been ~10 years since I reversed my myopia and I'm surprised that it's still a mystery to the medical community. Mine started around 2014 I worked at a law firm and was constantly looking for files up close all day every day. My distant vision got VERY blurry and it freaked me out. It stayed like that for about 1 year. I just thought it was my "time" because a lot of people around me had glasses. I went to Clarkson Eyecare for and they gave me a prescription for long distance glasses. My gut didn't trust it. So I read a bunch of (what was at the time) conspiracy theories on what caused myopia.

The websites explained: (1) Do NOT to use distance glasses because they actually elongate the eye even more over time and you'll have to get more and more powerful glasses as the years go by. (2)Get lots of UV sunlight without sunglasses so the eye can "regenerate". (3) Myopia is caused by looking at things very upclose for long periods of time and the eye muscle that focuses the eye to look that upclose over time gets "stuck that way" and trains the eye to elongate.

To stop and reverse moderate or beginning stage Myopia you need to wear 1x to 2x magnification glasses anytime you are doing upclose work. This way your eye muscle doesn't activate to focus the eye on the extremely upclose object. Get lots of outdoor time to relax the muscle. Move computer monitors back, avoid gaming or reading on your phone. Move objects away from your face, give it more space. When you are on the computer, wear the 1-2x magnifying readers.

After 1 year my myopia went away. The distance is crisp and sharp. This began my distrust of the medical community. Why didn't they tell me this was a treatment option?
