[[EndMyopia]] is based on the premise that '''[[myopia|near-sightedness]] is just a [[refractive state]], and not an irreversible condition''', as has been demonstrated in [[Moved:Improvement cases|countless improvement cases]] over many years. Many students have managed to completely reverse their myopia and regain [[20/20 eyesight]].

Reduced Lens is a vision improvement community and method. It raises awareness that '''[[myopia|near-sightedness]], in the most common case of [[lens-induced myopia]], is just a [[refractive state]] and not an irreversible condition''', as has been demonstrated in [https://endmyopia.org/success/ countless improvement cases] over many years. Many people have managed to completely reverse their myopia and regain [[20/20 eyesight|visual acuity]]. This is called the [[reduced lens method]].


EndMyopia does not exist as a quick-fix money-making scheme, and although there is a [[BackTo20/20|paid course]], it is entirely optional when it comes to improving your eyesight. All information is freely available in the blog articles on [[Moved:Endmyopia.org|endmyopia.org]] and the [[EndMyopia YouTube channel]].
The wiki is [[Red:CC BY-SA 4.0|free to use and share]] and is written by contributors like you. Most [[Red:Why_you_should_edit|editors]] have had some degree of success in improving their eyesight, otherwise they wouldn't have any interest in writing an entire wiki ;)

Intro

Reduced Lens is a vision improvement community and method. It raises awareness that near-sightedness, in the most common case of lens-induced myopia, is just a refractive state and not an irreversible condition, as has been demonstrated in countless improvement cases over many years. Many people have managed to completely reverse their myopia and regain visual acuity. This is called the reduced lens method.

The wiki is free to use and share and is written by contributors like you. Most editors have had some degree of success in improving their eyesight, otherwise they wouldn't have any interest in writing an entire wiki ;)

You should be suspicious while reading. Read third party clinical studies, doubt the method and come to your own conclusions about whether this is possible.

You should join the Reduced Lens Forum and the Reduced Lens Discord server.

Reduced Lens does not provide medical advice.
You shouldn't support Jake Steiner (endmyopia)
