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]]. | |||
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 ;) | |||
