It is generally believe that myopia is inherited, that is, one is born to be nearsighted and the eyes will attain the predetermined level of nearsightedness and the only management issue is to accurately determine the refractive error and use optical devices that allow clear vision (glasses, contact lenses). Environmental influences (near work, psychological stress & nutrition) are also thought to play a role. Herein lays the controversy.
There are several claims that the environmental factors play a far greater role in myopia development than is traditionally accepted and appropriate modifications lessen, reverse or even prevent myopia development. There is an understandable desire for preventing or reducing nearsightedness using non-surgical methods, however considerable disagreements exist regarding the effectiveness of available optical or behavioral therapies.
There are no eye exercises that will help your eyes see better or that will prevent the nearsightedness from getting worse. Be wary of the claims to the controry as there is no published peer reviewed scientific evidence to support the cliam. Think about it - if See Clearly method actually worked - why then would the company not do controlled clinical trials, get FDA approval and publish results in scientific journals. Instead See Clearly method is only advertised as infomercials. Tells you something .......

There is such a thing as vision therapy that helps people with certain vision problems. But for nearsightedness or presbyopia, there is nothing proven to work.
I believe the see clearly method was actually sued in the state of Iowa for false advertising methods. It seems they payed most people in their adds or they were employees or something like that and most had gone back to wearing their glasses or contact lenses...

Eyegirl is correct...See Clearly method is snake oil-it is a sham. If it truly worked, I would have used it. I've been wearing glasses for 44 years. Won't do LASIK, and I work for a LASIK surgeon.

Some good answers, there is no eye exercise that will change visual acuity. The FTC is suing the See clearly method people for fraud.
