Bates Method for Dummies

1. Practise relaxing your eyes.
2. Blink a lot
3. Close your eyes lightly and relax them

5. Have an eye chart on a nearby wall and practise looking at it

Not hard, and well worth it if you get the same results !!

It also works if you practice remembering each line of the eyechart!!! ;) ;)

I'll get me coat.......!

yeah yeah yeah, promise that isn't the technique !!!
