According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over seven million people in the US alone suffer from severe vision loss or blindness. In the past, low vision was truly a life-altering condition. Those seemingly everyday tasks that were once so simple instead became difficult--whether one had to work, cook, read, drive, go out to shop, or even turn on a light switch, one's world had been completely turned upside down. Today, however, things have begun to change. With the revolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) already underway, many of the major barriers caused by diminished or fully lost vision have been lessened or completely eliminated. In Low Vision Matters, authors Laura Stevens and Thomas Blackman provide a comprehensive guide to all the aids and equipment now available--along with important practical advice--to those who are vision-challenged.

The book is divided into two parts. Part One focuses on the day-to-day activities that low vision can affect--from safety in your home or traveling outside, to the handling of finances or one's home entertainment system. It discusses the latest technologies that can enable a person with eyesight problems to turn on a light, start a dishwasher, or even answer a phone through the use of oral commands--and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Part Two then provides a breakdown of the various kinds of helpful vision-aid products now available. Because the authors understand the costs involved in purchasing such equipment, they include the names of those organizations and associations in an extensive Resources section along with various other crucial contacts about which those with low vision and their loved ones and caretakers need to know.

Times have changed. Low Vision Matters provides a wealth of information that can vastly improve the daily life of a person living with vision loss or blindness.

This revolutionary new look at vision will broaden your understanding of how you see and how you can see without your glasses or contact lenses.

Take Off Your Glasses and See shows you how to free yourself from the crutch of prescription lenses, to build your self-confidence and awareness, and to open up your inner and outer vision in order to see more clearly.

Jacob Liberman, an internationally recognized authority on holistic vision care, explains how most vision problems are the result of an unconscious decision to close your eyes to emotional discomfort or pain, and how increasingly powerful corrective lenses only encourage eyesight to withdraw even further. By removing lenses and practicing breath- and movement-awareness techniques to shift your perception, you can reintegrate the original disruption in the mind/body system. Dr. Liberman's approach can help you join the thousands who have escaped from the self-defeating cycle of poor vision.

Healing Eye Diseases is a part of the Healing is Voltage series. Many eye diseases like macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, and uveitis are believed to be incurable. However, using the Healing is Voltage paradigm, they can be reversed in most cases. This book discusses how it can be done.

In 2016, ophthalmologist and Associate Clinical Professor Emeritus, Chris Knobbe, MD, proffered a revolutionary hypothesis for both the cause and the treatment of age-related macular degeneration; since then, his supportive research, writings, and presentations have received tremendous accolades from colleagues and fellow nutrition researchers, alike. Knobbe has presented his hypothesis and supportive research on numerous stages all across the United States and for a number of organizations, including the Christian Ophthalmology Society, the Ancestral Health Symposium, the Weston A. Price Foundation, and the Macular Degeneration Association. Knobbe is the world's only ophthalmologist to have proffered such a hypothesis, but which has also been buttressed by supportive research, published in the highly esteemed journal, Medical Hypotheses, in November, 2017.

Ophthalmologist and retina specialist of the United Kingdom, Andrew J. Luff, MA, FRCS, FRCS(Ophtha), FRCOphth, writes, As the prevalence of AMD escalates, the devastating consequences of visual loss take their relentless toll on individuals, families, and health economies. This epidemic continues to grow, oblivious to a plethora of research. A massive financial investment (both University-based and pharmaceutical) has made no impact on the incidence of a disease that has resisted minor nutritional tinkering and seen no significant gain from our exponentially increased knowledge of genetics. In researching our frustrating lack of success in the quest for a unifying cause of AMD, Dr. Knobbe concludes that we have been looking in the wrong place.

From a meticulous examination of ophthalmic history, comparative epidemiology and dietary change across the globe, he constructs a cogent and compelling argument for defects in basic nutrition as the fundamental driver of AMD. The data are stark and the potential consequences of dietary deficiency sobering. Dr. Knobbe's rational conclusion that a shift from traditional foods can wreak havoc on macular function will come as no surprise to those who have postulated similar cause for the multitude of chronic diseases now endemic in so-called developed nations.

His hypothesis is unlikely to be welcomed by those committed to pharmacological intervention. Furthermore, a radical change to the diet of billions will not happen quickly. However, for newly diagnosed patients seeking hope and clinicians struggling for an answer, Dr. Knobbe's remarkable book offers the first tangible lifeline. To impact on the visual health of a nation we need a paradigm shift in the attitude of government and a radical rethink of the artificially constructed boundaries between nutrition and medicine. The visual health of many millions of people worldwide over the coming decades may depend on whether Knobbe's message is heard by those with both the political power and the financial commitment to take action.

-- Andrew J. Luff, MA, FRCS, FRCS(Ophtha, FRCOphth, Vitreo-Retinal Surgeon, United Kingdom, Fellow of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists

Dr. Knobbe's revolutionary hypothesis, extraordinary research, and scientific rigor, is second to none. After having read the book or seen Knobbe's presentations, many have remarked, How can his conclusions be refuted? Come see how and why you can save your vision, by following a delicious, healthy, satisfying, diet, with virtually any food you desire, as long as it is made with ancestral ingredients. Shocking, but true

The diagnosis of macular degeneration does not have to mean a sentence of progressive loss of sight. Beating Macular Degeneration With Nutrition is the story (well-documented from medical sources) of how superior nutrition, avoidance of damaging influences and lifestyle improvements can save your sight.

This book gives eight principles for beating macular degeneration

• Superior eye nutrition
• Protect your eyes from high blood glucose
• Protect your blood vessels, especially those in the eye
• Protect your eyes from damaging light
• Avoid eye-damaging drugs
• Avoid and eliminate toxins
• Exercise and how it helps the eyes
• Pursue peace: promote activity of the parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system and decrease activity the sympathetic (fight or flight) nervous system.

Practical information for implementing these principles includes advice on putting superior eye nutrition into practice and 95 recipes. All recipes are diabetic- and food allergy-friendly and 87 are gluten-free. No sugar is used in this book; recipes are sweetened with the new neutral-tasting stevia extract, pure monk fruit extract or agave. Also included is information about eye-protecting sunglasses, real blood sugar control, helpful lifestyle practices, conventional treatment for AMD, and finding expert nutritional help for implementing and personalizing the treatment of your eyes and health.

When the author's husband was diagnosed with intermediate stage dry macular degeneration, she remembered hearing, eighteen years previously, a doctor tell her mother that nutrients could stop macular degeneration in its tracks. If she had not heard that one sentence and if they had not sought expert nutritional advice and implemented the principles in this book, he could have experienced the same extremely rapid progression of the disease that his father did. However, instead he experiences greatly improved color vision, ease in working at a computer all day, normal blood pressure, and more.

The decision about treatment of macular degeneration is yours. With the knowledge in this book, you can empower yourself to preserve or improve your sight and take charge of your future. Thoughtfully consider trying this approach, alone or in conjunction with conventional treatment for macular degeneration. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose.

As we age, we all become increasingly susceptible to seeing a recurring parade of spots or streaks appear before our eyes. If your vision is affected by this problem, chances are you've been told that you will just need to learn to live with it--but it doesn't have to be this way. In Healing Floaters and Detachments Naturally, authors Dr. Marc Grossman and Michael Edson tell you what you can do to regain a clearer view of the world around you--one free of those annoying little objects that drift in and out of your field of vision.

This book is divided into four parts. Parts One and Two discuss floaters and detachments, respectively, explaining their risk factors and possible treatments, which may include both conventional methods and complementary approaches such as supplementation, lifestyle changes, and traditional Chinese medicine. Part Three then details the common drugs that can lead to floaters and detachments, while Part Four describes the importance of a proper diet in relation to alleviating and avoiding these troublesome issues.

If you are among those people who have been told to learn to accept these visual nuisances as an unavoidable part of life, Healing Floaters and Detachments Naturally can help you to put these distractions out of sight--and out of mind.

Cells in the body require voltage to work and to make new cells to replace worn out cells. Our muscles are rechargeable batteries that provide this voltage. Each organ has its own battery pack. Such battery packs are specific stacks of muscles. These muscle stacks are known as acupuncture meridians.

In the competitive world of post high school athletics, conditioning is everything. From muscle mass to lung capacity to endurance to speed, athletes who can get an edge have a better chance of moving up the ladder to more and more elite levels of play.

But one aspect of conditioning that is often overlooked is vision. Ignored or undetected problems in the visual system have stopped many athletes' progress before making it to the professional--or even college--levels and has even ended otherwise promising professional athletic careers. But one cannot control vision, right? Wrong

Vision can be conditioned just like any other physical attribute, and the earlier this conditioning starts, the better. In See to Play, eminent optometrist Michael Peters, who works with many professional athletes and sports teams, addresses every aspect of this vital component of elite athletics. Included are in-depth discussions of all facets of vision accompanied by myriad exercises to help athletes hon

The Cure of Imperfect Sight by Treatment Without Glasses by William Horatio Bates. A brilliant book written by an eye-surgeon for the masses.

William Horatio Bates (1860-1931) was an American physician who practiced ophthalmology and developed what became known as the Bates Method for better eyesight, a method intended to improve vision by undoing a supposed habitual strain to see. The book contains findings after decades of research and experimental work into various eye disorders. The author was amazed at his own discoveries and the effect they had for the treatment of defective vision.

When the eye doctor is going blind, we really have a problem on our hands!

Believe it or not, this happened to me. I am an eye doctor who had perfect vision and a clean bill of health. Then, I was diagnosed with a potentially blinding eye disease at the age of thirty-five. I was given thirty days of sight when I took my vision's fate into my own hands.

I devised a plan to reverse my eye disease using nutrition and lifestyle changes. When I went to my eye specialist and found that my plan was successful, I knew that I wanted to become as informed as possible in the nutrition field. I become one of three optometrists in the nation with a Fellowship in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine and a Fellowship in Metabolic and Nutritional Medicine. Now I feel compelled to share my knowledge with as many people as possible to help others save their vision.

In Beyond Carrots, I tell my story and share the emotions that go along with a diagnosis of possible blindness. It is amazing how the body is truly connected to the eyes. What happens to the body directly impacts your vision. So, regardless of whether or not you are experiencing a potential eye disease, Beyond Carrots can help better your health!

The causes of some of the most common eye diseases are discussed. You will find out how to reverse those diseases through simple lifestyle changes and how certain foods can impact eye health. To top it all off, the Beyond Carrots Plan puts it all together with a step-by-step plan to reversing eye disease. By following this plan, your eyes will not be the only area of your life that will benefit. Upon the completion of your Beyond Carrots journey, you feel better, think clearer, and improve your vision. So, let's get started!

Fourth Printed Edition: Updated June, 2016. The continuing story of how one man reversed wet macular degeneration in eleven weeks. This update includes follow-up results of a Fluorescein Angiography scan (with dye) that showed no bleeding in either eye. The author's Ophthalmologist said that the wet macular degeneration was completely reversed and that both eyes were very healthy. This has been accomplished without any medical drugs.

John Crittenden is one of those rare clients who goes way above and beyond the support and encouragement he receives and clearly doesn't take no for an answer. His intuitive nature and persistence, along with a passion to learn and the ability to listen, have allowed him to defy all odds outlined by conventional medicine. BLIND FAITH is a true story of encouragement, empowerment and hope. I encourage everyone with a chronic disease, or anyone that cares for someone suffering from a chronic disease, to understand that John's case outlines something greater than macular degeneration; this approach can be applied to any chronic disease state. Dr. Brian Davies, BSc, ND

Comparison with current Anti-VEGF Injections published results:
Avastin - 9.7 letters gained (in 52 weeks)
Lucentis - 11.2 letters gained (in 52 weeks)
Eylea - 13.3 letters gained (in 52 weeks)
Crittenden Protocol - 35 letters gained (in 11 weeks)
Crittenden Protocol - 50 letters gained (on August 28, 2015)

If the author can do this then perhaps you can too. He is not writing about something he read or was taught in medical school. He is passionately writing about what he actually did and explains the full details of the protocol he developed and used. Like many of you he was told by his Ophthalmologist that there was no cure. This has been proven to be wrong.

Now his Ophthalmologist (who is a professor and current head of the Retina Division at the University of British Columbia), says he has never seen this kind of regeneration before and told him to keep doing what you're doing, you may change a lot of our minds.

What You Will Learn From This Book

1. How the author reversed macular degeneration with his own naturopathic protocol in eleven weeks with continual monitoring by his Ophthalmologist.
2. How the author connected the dots between several fields of science to develop his food-based protocol.
3. Full details of his protocol and how it may be personalized for others by a Naturopathic Doctor.
4. More than 200 printed pages and more than 90 links to the science for those who want to do their own research.
5. How our bodies are creating new cells all the time, why this does not cure disease for many people, and what we can do to change that.

Much, much more...

BLIND FAITH is the true story of how one man discovered the answer to reversing wet macular degeneration thru diet and nutrition alone. The results are proven and cannot be challenged.

In 2000 A.D., the author experienced physical eye trauma to one eye resulting in an injury that was compounded by an erroneous medical prescription designed to treat the injury. The combined trauma and damage caused by the prescription drug resulted in severely limited vision in his injured eye. Unable to accept the result of this injury, he embarked on a mission to overcome it. As a result of the damage he sustained, he had the opportunity to interact with accomplished doctors in many prestigious universities and institutions. He participated in events and seminars that only doctors were invited to and engaged in all available rehabilitation. He researched and sought all information, studies, and associated work on vision impairment and restoration that he could get his hands on. One important observation of his journey was the adherence of most of the vision industry to the medical model of healing. This failed model takes a general approach to correcting vision problems by mitigating symptoms without offering any solution to the underlying disorder. One important discovery of this journey was the field of sequencing neurosensory and neuromuscular activities that are individually prescribed to develop, rehabilitate, and enhance visual skills and information processing. This field is also referred to as vision therapy. The author's journey resulted in the restoration of his vision. The restoration of the vision of others that he shared these concepts with motivated him to develop his own Vision Therapy System that he now shares with you in this book. About the Book: Vision Therapy: Exercise Your Eyes and Improve Your Eyesight examines vision therapy and the historic application of it to correct vision problems. How eyesight works and the key components of successful vision therapy programs are explained. The reader is taught the impact of additional factors that should be considered and addressed to improve eyesight including; correcting poor visual practices, computer vision syndrome, disease, medication, aging, diet and nutrition, hormonal cycling, physical exercise, and multiple methods of stress relief. The reader will learn how glasses and contacts are practically guaranteed to ruin your vision over time and how they can protect themselves. The book concludes with the author's Vision Therapy System, providing board certified vision therapy at a fraction of the cost. Simple explanations and multitude of treatment plans are contained for you to choose from to create your own personalized vision therapy program designed specifically for your needs. Printable eye charts are included for measuring your vision improvement progress. This book has been sold for over 10 years online and recently converted to Amazon kindle.
