Though Mike said it more succinctly ....

Even if you assume that cadaver research, RCCT's, evidence-based,
empirical medicine, etc., do NOT yield medical certainty on every
issue ....

How can you possibly say that Bates's book represents "facts?"

Just like Otis, your zealotry represents nothing but fundamentalist
religious zeal and blind faith.

Go work with a few qualified optometrists and a panel of patients.
Get a test protocol designed and try this stuff out. Have the ODs
chime in with the protocol and the statistical analysis of the
outcomes.

Believe me: if it works ... and can be reproduced in other clinical
settings ... people will adopt it.

WHOOPS!! There goes your conspiracy argument! So sorry.

That's the consequence of believing fiction.

There are so many mysteries in this eyecare business. People really
have no clue as to anything. It's all guesswork.

Learn some facts. Read the Better Eyesight Magazine. Read the 1920s
book. All these mysteries are suddenly no longer mysteries... Dr.
Bates has revealed it all

It can go more than -2.00. It may not.

All you can say is, based on what other myopes have done, it isn't likely to
get much worse and it isn't likely to continue for more than a few years.

I understand. So it is possible to predict, in parallel with said theory,
what the progression would be for someone who becomes myopic in their 20s?
Is it true that it rarely exceeds -2 or can it go higher and when would it
likely stop?

It isn't a theory. It's an observation that comes directly from counting who
gets myopia and when.

Default Myopia in 20s

I know the theory that the earlier myopia starts the higher it gets but has
anyone heard of a similar theory for those who become myopic in their 20s?
I've heard that for this group it rarely gets much above -2. Is there any
evidence for this theory? Tks
