Otis, I read that you used the positive lens therapy with both your niece and nephew. You have stated that it did in fact work for your nephew but I heard it did not work for your niece. Why did this therapy not work for your niece?
Hi Chelsee -
There were three children. They all wore a plus. I only asked that they EXCEED the 20/40 line - if they were interested!
They are now 50 + years old. They all pass the DMV - to the best of my knowledge. To me - that is success.
To you - maybe it is not success?
But what you need to know, is what always happens - if you start wearing a minus lens.
Briefly - your refraction goes down, down, down, for each year you wear that minus. It is a rate of -1/2 diotper per year.
So I argue that to "just stay out", means NEVER WEAR A MINUS LENS.
To "never wear a minus", means objectively exceeding the 20/40 line - by self checking. That is what they did.
In the "grand scheme of things", if you always objectively pass the DMV - you are successful.
If you even start wearing a minus - your distant vision is going to be permanently lost.
