Improve Eyesight Long Sighted – Natural Clear Vision

Posted on July 6, 2013 by Restore Eyesight with Bates Eye Exercises

If you are like so many people today, the first thing that you do when you wake up in the morning is reach for your glasses. Some people have such bad eyesight that they cannot even see the alarm clock to turn it off each morning. Many need to wear corrective eyewear to drive their car, much less to function in any type of regular way. This, of course, leads to the question of whether there are natural ways to improve eyesight.

'Vision Without Glasses' Helping Improve Vision Naturally, Review …

Posted on May 31, 2013 by Restore Eyesight with Bates Eye Exercises

A new book by Duke Peterson is making waves in the market in present times by helping people get rid of their glasses and attain 20/ 20 vision.

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 28, 2013

A new book by Duke Peterson is making waves in the market in present times by helping people get rid of their glasses and attain 20/ 20 vision. The point that is attracting the attention of the most is the fact that the book does not support the use of glasses and aids in getting the desired results without spending on expensive laser surgery. Instead, the book contains a few simple exercises to follow for a period of few months for noticeable improvement.

Read review on Duke Peterson’s Ebook visit, Vision Without Glasse.

When contacted, an expert of the field said, “The research and findings of Duke Peterson has revealed that wearing glasses damages the eyes in the long term and never lets one get back the normal eye sight. In addition, laser surgery used for the same is expensive and comes with a number of side effects. The exercises and details provided in the book is basically the findings of Dr. Bates, a renowned named in the field, that has been adapted to the modern times and offer desired results in shorter duration.” According to a statement by Dr. bates in the 1920’s, “If glasses are worn continuously over time the poor vision will generally become worse. Essentially what glasses do is lock the eyes into their refractive state and in order to see through your lenses you have to maintain the poor vision that the lenses are designed to correct.”

According to the sources, some of the issues that the book covers and helps in improvement include Near-Sightedness (Myopia), Lazy Eye (Amblyopia), Cross-Eye (Strabismus), Eyestrain, Dyslexia, Astigmatism, Hyperopia (Far-Sightedness), Presbyopia (Old-Age Sight), Tension Headache, Light Sensitivity and Poor Night Vision to name a few. The book also reveals the 15 min a day action plan for better eyesight, the correct ways of using glasses and lenses and details related to getting relief in just 60 second from eye strain and headache among others.

Sources confirmed that the book has already helped quite a few across the globe. Henry White from Canada said, “I thought I would live the rest of my life with glasses. My experience since I started your program was amazing. I went through all the program at first because it was the fastest way for me to learn what it is about. After reading everything I started the program and my eyes felt renewed in just a few days – as if they were reborn.”

11 ways to improve the navigation on your mobile site | Econsultancy

Posted on May 24, 2013 by Restore Eyesight with Bates Eye Exercises

Navigation is central to the mobile user experience as visitors want to be able to find what they’re looking for or browse your wares with little fuss.

If they have to struggle with confusing menu options and numerous barriers then they’ll become frustrated and jump ship to one of your competitors.

A new report investigating consumer opinions of mobile commerce has found that there is still a perception that the mobile web offers a poor user experience.

More than a third (37%) of respondents in the EPiServer survey agreed that many mobile websites are difficult to navigate, an increase from 32% in 2011.

With this in mind, here are 11 tips for improving mobile web navigation…

Limit the layers of navigation

Mobile users aren’t known for their patience so you need to limit the number of clicks before they get to the product options.

This problem is intensified when visitors are using 3G, as if they have a slow connection then each layer adds valuable seconds onto the navigation time and makes it hugely unlikely that they’ll stick around to complete their task.

Therefore it’s a good idea to limit your site to a maximum of three levels of navigation, otherwise your site is probably too complicated and you’re asking too much of the user.

Use nested navigation

The three-line navigation button is practically ubiquitous on mobile sites these days. It’s a great tool for hiding navigation options in a drop-down menu with the added benefit of freeing up space on the page.

In general retailers position the button at the top of the page so it’s always available to visitors, which provides a comforting level of consistency in site navigation.

Best Buy and Nike both use the three-line button on their mobile sites to good effect, while Best Buy also has a well positioned search tool.

Clarity of options

Copywriting is a big part of providing a user journey as you need to make it obvious to the visitor where each click will lead them.

In general ecommerce sites are good at using simple language, however luxury and high-end retailers are often guilty of making things over complicated.

For example, two of the five options that Abercrombie gives you are quite vague and I’m not sure exactly what I’ll get if I accept Louis Vuitton’s offer of “Gallant Love.”

Icons vs. lists

I haven’t seen any evidence that either option is more effective, but personally I find icons more aesthetically pleasing and user-friendly.

They tend to be bigger so they’re more forgiving on fat thumbs, plus they allow your designers to be more creative.

Simple lists of text links are quite common and get the job done, but they take away a brand’s ability to stamp its own style and personality on its mobile site.

The difference can be seen here in examples from Tesco and House of Fraser…

Limit the number of menu options on each page

While researching this post I came across various different recommendations for the maximum number of menu options mobile sites should include on each page.

Some suggested that five was the optimum number while others said include no more than seven.

Another report published in The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology suggests that people tend to get confused when presented with more than six options.

So though the precise number of options is open to debate, it’s still advisable to place a limit on the maximum number of options per page so that users don’t get confused and drop out.

Even Amazon, with its wealth of product options, only gives six categories on its homepage. And though I’m not a fan of Sears’ mobile site with its dull as dishwater design, it does at least keep things simple.

Filtered navigation

Most major ecommerce sites have a broad product range so it’s important to allow users to filter out results that are irrelevant to them.

There are a number of potential criteria, including brand, size, price, colour – it’s just a case of picking the ones that are most relevant for your product range.

Avoid mentioning page numbers

There’s no way of getting round the fact that browsing hundreds of product options on a mobile is an arduous process, so retailers need to be clever to prevent people from losing patience and abandoning the site.

One way of doing this is by avoiding mentioning how many pages of product options their search has found.

Instead consider using endless scroll or give them the option to ‘View more items.’

One-click checkout

Amazon has really nailed the checkout process with its 1-Click payment system, but many of its competitors also allow customers to store their card details so future purchases can be made with just a few clicks.

I previously investigated the mobile checkouts of several of the UK’s top online retailers and found that M&S, John Lewis and ASOS also simplify the payment process for returning customers.

This is an extremely valuable tool for mobile customers as form filling and security concerns around entering card details are still seen as two of the main barriers to mobile commerce.

Obey the 44×44 rule

In order for users to be able to navigate your site comfortably all CTAs and buttons need to be big enough to easily click with a thumb.

A CTA that is 44×44 pixels should be large enough to accommodate most people’s thumbprints, but you also need to make sure there is enough space around the buttons to avoid accidental clicks.

These examples from Currys and United Pixel Workers, which both use responsive design, show how to design CTAs that standout and are easy to click.

Prominent site search

According to Microsoft 70% of mobile search tasks are completed within the hour compared to a week on desktop, so users clearly know what they’re looking for and have a sense of urgency.

As such it’s useful to display a prominent search tool on your mobile site so visitors don’t have to waste time browsing different product categories.

We’ve previously blogged best practice tips for ecommerce site search – the most important things to consider are:

Make the box easy to spot, ideally at the top of the page.

Position a search box in the same position on each page of the site.

Use predictive search where possible.

Link to advanced search option.

Let visitors use the back button on their phone

This is a personal bug bear and one that annoys me so much I felt compelled to include it. I commonly use the back button on my Samsung handset to navigate around my phone’s various features, so I also expect to be able to use it on mobile sites.

Thankfully most retailers support this feature, however some can’t seem to cope with it and go into meltdown when you try to go back using anything but the on-site tools.

A prime example is ASOS. If you try to navigate around the product categories by using the back button on your handset then it boots you off the site altogether or back to the homepage.

For example, if you’re browsing shirts in the sale and choose to refine the results, then subsequently click the back button on your handset to return to the results screen, the mobile site sends you all the way back to the homepage despite the fact that you had to navigate through three separate screens to get to the ‘refine results’ page.

Personally I find that to be a major UX flaw as I think that to an extent sites should adapt to existing user behaviours, though I appreciate that not every user will be the same.

Higgins: 70 percent solution | Toledo Newspaper

Posted on May 10, 2013 by Restore Eyesight with Bates Eye Exercises

One of the lesser-known adventures of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes was written not by his creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, but by American novelist Nicholas Meyer in 1974. It was called “The Seven Percent Solution.” In it, the harrowed and heroic detective returns from a hiatus that apparently includes everything from a distorted report of his demise (something readers are long accustomed to with regards to his nemesis Moriarty) and an unflinching look into the investigator’s jaded (if not sordid) past. Without giving away the entire tale for those who would like to explore it further, the plot is largely about an attempt by the tortured investigator to ignore the faux pas and depredations of one’s past, an effort to deal with the effects of long-term addictions to poor behavior and what might be considered a last ditch attempt at recovery.

The game would be considered ‘afoot’ indeed, to discover the clues connecting Meyer’s effort to the recent 11-1 Toledo City Council vote to increase water rates over the next five years, but that’s the almost criminal activity we’re presented with. It doesn’t take the Baker Street irregulars however to see the injustice of increases of 13.2 percent in each of the next four years and 4.5 percent in the fifth, after 9 percent increases during the four preceding years.

Much like the Meyer’s tale, however, we can see that much of the present iniquity has deep roots in the past where the water department is concerned. For many years, the department fact was running profitably, regardless of the sometimes tarnished financial picture of the city’s general fund. That financial image was so squeaky clean in fact, that the water department long became known not just for the quality of its product, but equally (and perhaps unfortunately) for employing political appointees and workers nominally supported by the city’s general fund who needed to be scrubbed fiscally (cut), but not removed actually. These waters became deeply muddied however in 2002 with the issuance of a consent decree that included the city, state and the EPA that mandated that Toledo upgrade its equipment and eliminate the release of untreated sewage into the Maumee River from the Bay View Wastewater plant, while reducing storm water runoff at the same time.

One might think that the department’s previous apparently able administrators had to recognize the necessity of continuous capital improvement with so extensive a system and wonder at its lack. Some might go on to wonder whether this obvious but necessary evil was ever pointed out to previous city managers, strong mayors and city councils. They might indeed wonder if it was simple ignorance or a nefarious plot to explain why no adequate plan was in place to do required work within such a profitable department prior to the decree. One might even go on to speculate whether the department’s corrupt use as a political waste treatment facility may have not only contributed to it’s inability to discover its own structural weaknesses, but ultimately to its impotency for cleaning up its act.

The Glass City is certainly not the only one in the nation currently suffering from similar problems in dealing with waste (politically, financially or where its water and sewer systems are concerned). There are other even higher profile examples of dilapidation at the municipal level, where extravagance and political expediency have resulted in ignoring the common sense of improving infrastructure long hidden from sight, while more high profile and extravagant expenditures go on. There’s little consolation to taxpayers however, in discovering that they are part of an ever-growing group of victims to the what might be considered crimes of political short sightedness and business as usual governance, while the Moriartys in charge are instead considering their run for the next office up the political ladder.

The connections between the two tales are elementary enough however, based not only on the plot, but the similarity of math. The initial rate after all (let’s use the number 1 for the sake of ease), must be multiplied by its 13.2 percent increase (1.132), with that total multiplied by the same increase three more times cumulatively. That subtotal must then be multiplied one last time by the final year’s 4.5 percent rate increase (1.045) for its final result. And so a city which started with a department once considered to be in good fiscal health, one which through years of fiscal addiction, neglect and perhaps even abuse now requires far more than the 7 percent chemical solution Holmes required for maintenance of his problem. For its own belated recognition of fiscal state of the water department, Toledo will require in the next five years no less than the cash of a 70 percent solution.

Gentle touch and the bionic eye: Using haptics to improve outcomes …

Posted on May 3, 2013 by Restore Eyesight with Bates Eye Exercises

Normal vision is essentially a spatial sense that often relies upon touch and movement during and after development, there is often a correlation between how an object looks and how it feels. Moreover, as a child’s senses develop, there is cross-referencing between the various senses. Indeed, where the links between the senses are not made, there may be developmental problems or delays. This should be taken into consideration when training new users of visual prosthetics, artificial retinas, or bionic eyes, suggest researchers in Australia.

Writing in the International Journal of Autonomous and Adaptive Communications Systems, a team at Monash University explain that haptic devices, technologies that simulate the feel of an object should be used as early as possible in children fitted with visual prosthetics, and also for older congenitally blind and late-blind people. The haptic device can provide supplementary or redundant information that allows cross-referencing with the visual input from the prosthetic. This, George van Doorn and colleagues suggest will help train the brain more effectively to understand the electrical input it is receiving from the prosthetic.

The input to the brain from any of our senses is ultimately an electrochemical signal, no actual light, sounds, odor molecules or other stimuli enters the brain. During infancy, the brain learns to interpret these different signals. However, the brain can be retrained to “understand” inputs from seemingly odd places. For instance, researchers grafted an electronic retina, not dissimilar to a low-resolution digital camera, to a patient’s tongue and then helped the patient learn how to interpret patterns of light hitting the sensor, even though the electrical signals reach the brain from receptors in the tongue.

At the moment, artificial retinas are very low resolution, a small array of a few dozen pixels, whereas a digital camera might have millions of pixels in its sensor. One can imagine that during the next few years artificial retinas will become more sophisticated and their resolution will increase. The limiting factor is the ability of the brain to be retrained to understand the input from these devices. Van Doorn and colleagues Barry Richardson and Dianne Wuillemin, experts in virtual reality, bionics and tactile technologies are now investigating how a haptic device might help. They suggest that exploiting multisensory processes will allow cross-calibration of information from the environment as well as assisting in teaching recipients of visual prosthetics to filter out noise, just as the brains of sighted individuals are able to do when looking at an object or scene.

The concepts are not unrelated to the ability of Braille readers to “see” text and deaf people to “hear” sign language. There are, however, critical periods in development when the brain is most receptive and plastic. Even poor sensory information is better than none at all, the team explains, provided that the different inputs correlate – from a visual prosthetic and haptic device, for instance – all tell the same story about the world. “The inescapable conclusion is that, if the aim of a bionic eye, or equivalent, is to restore functional vision in the young or less young, then a visual prosthetic must operate in a multimodal context in which haptics will be a major player,” the researchers conclude.

Rail boss walks blindfolded to raise awareness of first railway station …

Posted on April 26, 2013 by Restore Eyesight with Bates Eye Exercises

Europe’s busiest interchange station – Clapham Junction – has become the first station in the UK to be equipped with a guided path for blind or partially sighted passengers. The new guided path will make it much easier for passengers who are blind or partially sighted to use the station footbridge, linking the new entrance from the Brighton Yard entrance to the platform stairs. The entire station now has step-free access delivering major improvements for over 40m passengers who use the station every year.

The tactile paving used on the guided path is a system of textured ground surface indicators installed on the tiling of the footbridge to help pedestrians who are blind or partially sighted to self-orientate and find their platform. Braille signs have also been added.

To mark the completion of this innovative project, Managing Director for the South West Trains-Network Rail Alliance, Tim Shoveller, took on the challenge of being blindfolded to try the new guided walkway with the assistance of a guide dog.

He was helped along by members of the Guide Dog Mobility Team from London, who promote guide dog services and campaigns across the London area including Clapham Junction.

Tim Shoveller said: “This is the first time a UK station has been equipped with a guided path. It is a welcome improvement and will make a real difference to many of our passengers”.

Tim said that doing a blindfold walk has helped raise his awareness of the problems faced by partially sighted passengers, he added: “I was keen to try out the blindfolded walk so I could understand how partially sighted people use our stations.

“It has helped to give me a real insight into understanding what it is like to move around our stations without vision. Taking part in this exercise has really helped me to focus on what issues we need to be looking at and how to keep improving in the future.”

John Welsman, Policy Business Partner at Guide Dogs responsible for Travel and Transport related issues said “This is a fantastic step towards making a complex station much more accessible for blind and partially sighted passengers. As a guide dog owner myself, I can now navigate the over bridge at the station with much more confidence, knowing that I can get to the right platform with the aid of the tactile and Braille signs at the top of each stairwell.

“Initiatives like this go a long way in supporting visually impaired people with their independent travel and I look forward to South West Trains implementation of measures like this at their other stations.”

This latest improvement complements the step free entrance opened in May 2011 and the new lifts to all platforms, making the station completely accessible to people with reduced mobility and much easier to negotiate for those with young children or heavy luggage.
