[ClarkNight]

NOTE June 14, 2022 - I been reading over all 2000+ pages of Dr. Bates' Original Better Eyesight magazines again, in tiny fine print. (from Rishi, John Giovanni in Italy. Little booklets he gave me years ago.) Keeps my vision clear. I found a misprint in my Magazines. Giovanni's magazines has it correct! (Also David). In my published magazines I Photoshopped out the tail end of the letter q so it would be a o. It should be q.
I may not have found this in my magazines if I was not re-reading Giovanni's original magazines. Thank you for sending me a 'perfect copy' straight from Dr. Bates. I was able to compare it to BEM Bound Volumes and David's and Thomas R. Quackenbush's book (he also has it correct) in order to be sure I did the misprint and how to fix it correct. Its my mistake. All these others guys got it right. Tom; https://www.amazon.com/Better-Eyesight-C...uackenbush

My BEMs' are now fixed on the website; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/n.../id51.html And doing it in the pdfs, other books ASAP.

Picture below shows the original correct page from a e-bay Better Eyesight Magazine ORIGINAL in Bound Volumes from Dr. Bates. I marked the parts with the q, o which confused me in the past. Would it have been just the same to use only a q or only a o for this 'strain' experiment?

If you are interested in Mr. Giovanni's books;

https://rumble.com/c/c-1677505

NOTE: for the collectors of Dr. Bates' work; see pdf below 'Transactions of the section on Ophthalmology AMA...'

I am finding more articles by Dr. Bates! Different word searches bring up things that other searches miss. Example; my last search was; ‘eye W. H. Bates’ or ‘eye Dr. W. H. Bates’. Hard to find articles by Dr. Bates and other doctors communicating with him appear! Archives of Ophthalmology and many other books, magazines, records. Public Domain! NOTE: I did ocr so you can search for Dr. Bates. This brought the clarity down to 300 dpi for pictures. You can find the original pdf on Google search.

Another note; this IS medical… doctors talking in the book. Some may disagree with Dr. Bates. Others agree. Some might post opinions that are NOT Dr. Bates' method. Avoid.

The book is old. If you study Optometry, Ophthalmology; these books have good training, information, BUT, you must also study the up to date college… medical Ophthalmology... textbooks, magazines...

I spend ALOT of my time helping people who have been injured (double vision, detached retina...) by these UNNATURAL teachers' methods, including the HARMFUL Magical Eyes pictures-Stereograms (Artificial 3-D), Plus Lens method, eye rotations stretches...
I have become aware that there are people that have been calling me while posing as students; secretly recording the training, conversations and selling them to the Unnatural Teacher's Podcast... in an attempt to use this as an endorsement. I HAVE NOT endorsed or given permission for this and do NOT endorse these Unnatural teachers.

https://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Sight-Wit..._sidesheet
https://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Sight-Wit..._sidesheet

1 -Relaxation of Mind, Body, Eyes with Palming, Memory and Imagination.

2 - Shifting; Move the attention (where you are looking) from part to part on the object you look at. Blink. Shift from object to object.

3 - Central Fixation; much clearer than 20/20 eyesight (vision) at all distances.

4 - Blink! It brings clear eyesight and natural healthy tears. Blinking also improves eye shifting movements.

5 - Relaxed, Abdominal Breathing.

6 - Movement, Long Swing, Sway, Seeing the Opposite Swing.

7- Improving the Memory and Imagination automatically improves the clarity of eyesight.

8 - Switching and Shifting on objects at Close - Middle - Far Distances for clear eyesight at all distances!

9 - Sunlight is healthy for the Mind, Body and Eyes. It produces clear eyesight.

10 - Shifting on, reading fine and tiny microscopic print improves the health of the eyes and clarity of eyesight.

Dr. W. H. Bates cures Glaucoma with his natural Method;

PDF = Better Eyesight Magazine - Dec. 1922. Lot of Dr. Bates' Natural Practices. A preview of one of our new books; 11 years of magazine issues all in one large 8.5x11 book in small print, 4 per page. Great for students and teachers, references. And; the small print keeps the eyesight clear! Many issues teach how to see small and fine, microscopic print clear with relaxation and shifting, central fixation.

[ClarkNight]

This is a way to help prevent eyestrain on the computer and flat screen TV;
The reflection of objects at different distances, locations prevents the eyes from looking a long time at one close distance. Prevents 'staring'.

From the video; CLEAR Glass Cover for Computer Screen... Prevents Eyestrain, Staring, Immobility and Unclear Vision

I have used a glass cover on my computer screen for years and on my wall behind me. Also mirrors on the wall which reflect onto the computer screen. I can work endlessly all day into the night! 7 days a week. No eyestrain, no blur. I believe that CLEAR, PERFECT reflections of objects at various distances (along with looking at real objects out a open window often) keeps the eyes, lens, mind in movement. No strain. Relaxation is maintained including 'Dynamic, Active Relaxation' as Aldous Huxley states in his book 'The Art of Seeing'. The reflections in glass, mirrors prevent the eyes from 'locking up' on one close distance for hours at work, play.

Movement (Shifting) is a main Natural Eyesight Practice Dr. Bates taught.

I realize that looking at reflections in glass and looking through a glass cover is not 100% natural as looking at real objects not through or on a glass. But it has never harmed me. Only benefited. It is NOT like an eyeglass lens.

See the video for directions. Not the best video I have made. Had to cut a lot after I realized the plastic was not functioning well. I had perfect clear, flat plastic in the past but it wore out over the years and it is hard to find new ones. GLASS is best.

Dr. William H. Bates Life & The Bates Method History

Dr. W. H. Bates started his career as an orthodox Ophthalmologist following the old, long time rules of the practice; prescribing eyeglasses... During his practice, working with different patients, eye conditions, he realized that unclear close, distant vision (farsight, presbyopia, myopia...), astigmatism and other conditions often cured itself, reversed back to clear vision, especially when his patients stopped wearing their eyeglasses and relaxed. He noticed that wearing glasses 'tensed' the eyes, eye muscles, mind, lowered the vision, resulted in stronger and stronger eyeglass lens prescriptions being needed in order to see clear through the glasses.

He began his own studies on the eye and its function. This led him to discover that many of the old ophthalmology, optometry ‘supposed facts’ about the eye, eye muscles, lens, their function and the cause of unclear vision... are incorrect. Dr. Bates began teaching his patients to stop wearing their glasses.

He taught them natural methods, relaxation, correct use of the eyes/vision, practice of normal, natural eye function (movement...) to improve the vision to 20/20 and better. Dr. Bates cured his own eyesight, close vision, presbyopia. Distant vision also clear. He wrote an article in his book Perfect Sight Without Glasses and Better Eyesight magazine describing how he did it with Memory, Imagination, Relaxation. 'He controlled, changed the focus of light rays in his eyes with his mind.'

(Standard Color Edition books are 1/2 price.)

Dr. Bates performed experiments on the eyes of animals, and observed the function of thousands of animal, patient's eyes under different conditions, situations, state of mind, body, thoughts and emotions. He used the retinoscope to see the refraction, focus of light rays in the eye under these various conditions. He proved that the refraction, clarity of vision changes often, and; when the eyes are left alone, eyeglasses avoided, the refraction, clarity returns to normal, clear vision. He proved that the state of the mind, thoughts change the refraction of the eye, clarity of vision. Example; when the mind, body is relaxed, positive, happy thoughts, emotions; the refraction is normal and vision is clear. When the mind, body is under stress, strain; the refraction is abnormal and vision is unclear. Dr. Bates discovered that the main cause of unclear vision and other eye problems is; Wearing Eyeglasses, Mental Strain, Mental/Visual Effort to See, Poor Vision Habits-incorrect use of the eyes; squinting, staring, not shifting-lack of normal, relaxed eye movements, lack of central-fixation, imperfect memory, imagination... Perfect Sight occurs only with Perfect Relaxation (deep or active/dynamic relaxation - See Aldous Huxley's book: The Art of Seeing). Relaxation occurs first and then the eyesight becomes clear. Practicing normal, relaxed eye/vision, mind/function, shifting, central fixation... produces relaxation of mind, eyes and clear vision.

Dr. Bates’ experiments on the outer eye muscles proved that tension in these muscles (mainly caused by eyeglasses, contact lenses, stress, strain in the mind, incorrect use of the eyes/vision) disrupts their function, the eyes’ movement, accommodation, convergence, un-accommodation, divergence. Causes pressure, tension, pulling on/in the eye, alters the eyes’ shape, (and lens, retina...), impairs refraction, focus of light rays in the eye, on the retina and the clarity of vision. Blood, oxygen, fluid circulation, tear and oil gland production, nerve function in the eyes is also impaired.

Mental strain, stress, unhappy thoughts, emotions cause eye muscle tension, unclear vision. Neck muscle tension also causes eye muscle tension. Neck tension is caused by mental strain, negative thoughts, emotions, incorrect posture, injury; vertebrae out of alignment. Inner eye muscle tension also occurs ; ciliary/lens, iris, eyelids, tear gland... muscles. When the mind is strained, tense; the brain and retina do not communicate, function together at optimum level. Function of the retina is lowered.

Relaxing the mind, eyes, body, returning the eyes to normal movement, function; relaxes the outer, inner eye muscles, returns the eyes, lens, retina... to normal shape, function with normal eye pressure, circulation for healthy eyes, clear vision.

Dr. Bates proved that MENTAL STRAIN causes unclear vision. RELAXATION of the mind produces clear vision. Dr. Bates used his retinoscope to show that the refraction/focus of light rays in the eye are disrupted resulting in unclear vision when a person lies. Lying causes a bit of mental strain. When the person tells the truth-no strain occurs, the refraction is perfect and vision clear. Many things can cause mental strain. Avoid eyeglasses, remove the stress, strain; vision returns to clear. Practice of Natural Eyesight Improvement can uncover old, forgotten stressful experiences, resulting in strong emotions, feelings being remembered, activated. Once the memory, feelings are acknowledged, released and new positive thoughts, emotions placed into the brain, system; often the vision immediately returns to normal 20/20 and clearer. No other practice is needed. The eyes relax, move, ‘shift’... correct on their own.

Dr. Bates published Medical Articles, Books describing his experiments on the eyes, eye muscles, the effect of memory on the eyes, vision and the effect of the clarity of vision on the memory; 1891 ‘A Study of Images Reflected from the Cornea, Iris, Lens, and Sclera’ and ‘Memory as an Aid to Vision’. These Articles and others are placed in his 1920 book; Perfect Sight Without Glasses-The Cure of Imperfect Sight by Treatment without Glasses, Better Eyesight Magazine and his Medical Articles.

Dr. Bates created Natural Treatments, Activities to cure; reverse, correct and prevent unclear vision and other eye conditions based on his discoveries. This became known as ‘The Bates Method’.

Dr. Bates’ Book Perfect Sight Without Glasses, his Better Eyesight Magazine and Medical Articles in their Original Antique print from the 1800-1900's, unedited, entire magazine collection of 11 years, 132 monthly issues; July, 1919 to June, 1930, Vol. 1 and 2 are published in Paperback with additional training, pictures, eyecharts by William H. Bates, Emily C. Lierman, Clark Night, Amazon Createspace and KDP.

I created Dr. Bates' Amazon page in Sept., 2014. Notice; Dr. Bates' page; https://www.amazon.com/William-H-Bates/e...p_ebooks_1 contains only books by Dr. William H. Bates, Clark Night, Emily C. Lierman, A. Bates (Dr. Bates' wife, Clinic Assistant); Dr. Bates' and Emily's ORIGINAL books assembled, preserved by Clark Night. I (Clark Night) add more pictures, training to the books. I publish, place only Dr. Bates' TRUE books, natural method (without use of eyeglasses, eye surgery, unnatural methods) on Dr. Bates' Amazon page. In 2020 Amazon managers allow me to create and post videos, biography... on Dr. Bates' page. Amazon owns the page, so; the page might sometimes contain books created by other authors using Dr. Bates' name, books. I try to prevent this by alerting Amazon. Warning; Some authors alter, add unnatural, harmful practices to Dr. Bates' books. Example; they allow use of; auto-stereograms/magical eye pictures/artificial 3-D, pinhole glasses, eye rotations/eye-eye muscle stretching, colored eyeglass... lenses, eyeglasses, contact lenses, lasik eye surgery, other harmful surgeries, eye muscle surgery, drugs, unnecessary eye drops, unhealthy herbs... Dr. Bates does not approve of this! The Copyright-Disclaimer-Warnings page on the website; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id110.html and in my books' copyright pages list the unnatural methods to avoid. This will protect you. Also see the Bates Method History page; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id4.html The unnatural methods, surgery, drugs cause and increase; vision impairment, astigmatism, crossed/wandering eyes, blindness, cataract, glaucoma, detached retina, dry eyes, dizziness, brain hemisphere/visual system imbalance and many eye, vision problems! Avoid book authors, vision teachers that add these unnatural, harmful practices, methods in their books, schools. This website; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info and https://cleareyesight.info contains only Dr. Bates' TRUE books, safe-healthy-natural-original method. Look for these books on Dr. Bates' Amazon Author page. Books on Dr. Bates' Amazon page with author 'Clark Night' also listed as co-author and in the copyright page ensures that only the safe, healthy, true method by Dr. Bates is in the books. Original Antique editions of Dr. Bates' books with nothing extra added, nothing altered are also very good. I endorse the book; The Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses published by Henry Holt & Company; a shorter version of Dr. Bates' original book. Everything in it is effective and healthy. Read Dr. Bates' Biography on Dr. Bates' Amazon Author's page. Read Clark Night's blog posts and watch videos of Dr. Bates' books. Videos contain video in video free Natural Eyesight Improvement training with color pictures as I move through the chapters, pages.

UPDATE; In June, 2020; Amazon took the unnatural vision teachers, authors' books off Dr. Bates' page. Thank you! Amazon added Dr. Bates' Better Eyesight Without Glasses 1943 Henry Holt publisher edition!

Clark Night (Mary I. Oliver) preserves Dr. Bates’ magazines, books. Clark Night is a Bates Method Natural Eyesight Improvement Graduated Student and Self-Trained Teacher, has taken 5 courses, studied the method and Dr. Bates’ books, magazines, other teachers books keeping her eyesight 20/20 and clearer for over 48 years using Dr. Bates’ Method. (See pictures of my drivers licenses on the website; no glasses!) Our mission is to help people obtain clear eyesight, healthy Eyes. Clearsight Publishing Co. donates part of our book sale profits to help the blind, visually disabled; The Seeing Eye, Guiding Eyes For The Blind Guide Dog Schools, Perkins School for the Blind, DAV, Veterans.
The secret for clear vision that most eye doctors hide; Eye Movement; 'shifting' the visual attention (Central Field) from part to part on an object to see it clear. Relax. Blink. This is the main practice that brings clear vision. Replace squinting, trying to see with shifting. Dr. Bates describes shifting in his Magazine; When you look at a chair; avoid trying to see all parts clear at the exact same time. Look at one part at a time. Look at a part of the chairs back, then move to a different part on the back, then another part, then shift to a part on a leg, then shift to a arm, then the top, then side... When looking at a part; continue to shift small part to small part on the part. The eyes truly shift 'point to point', jumping about with small, fast, relaxed, tiny movements (saccades); moving the eyes’ central field, its macula, fovea centralis in the center of the macula, eyes’ retina upon the object of attention. 'Shifting and Central-Fixation.' The eyes move automatically with the attention of the mind, brain; objects the brain, eyes are looking at and objects, subjects, thoughts occurring in the mind using the memory, imagination. Improving the function and relaxation of the mind, body, memory, imagination improves eye movement, the clarity of eyesight. Clear eyesight further improves all functions of the mind/brain and relaxation. Relaxed, normal eye movements, relaxed mind relaxes the outer, inner eye muscles, pulls healthy light into the eyes, removes tension on/in the eye, improves eye circulation, returns the eye to normal shape with correct focus of light rays in the eye, clear eyesight. Practice shifting at close, middle, far distances for clear eyesight at all distances. Practice as a healthy habit, normal, correct eye (visual system) function. Practice shifting ; both eyes together, one eye at a time, both eyes together again. If vision is less clear in one eye at one or more distances; practice a bit more with the less clear vision eye to get the vision equal, perfect in the left and right eyes at all distances. Shift on fine print for clear close vision. Relaxation of the mind and eyes (eye muscles, body, neck ); Dr. Bates’ main treatment. When the mind relaxes, the vision is clear. Function of the mind/brain; memory, imagination and other functions that work with the eyes improve, increasing visual clarity. "Practice, then Don't practice"; Let the eyes, vision function completely natural, perfect without conscious control, direction. Natural, normal, relaxed eye, visual system function. Correct Vision Habits, Activities; Shifting-Natural Eye movement, Central Fixation, Relaxation, Blinking, Memory and Imagination, Switching Close-Middle-Far for perfect equally clear vision, convergence/accommodation, divergence/un-accommodation in the left and right eyes at all distances. Abdominal Breathing, Long Swing, Sway. Left and Right Brain Hemisphere Activation and Integration, Color Treatment/Visualization, Alpha, Theta, Delta Brain Wave Deep Relaxation, Palming, Positive Thinking, Posture, Physical Therapy, Abdominal Breathing, Energy Circulation and Strengthening, Sunning, Saccadic Sunning, Palming, Reading Fine Print, Reading Eyecharts, EFT, Acupressure, and other Activities for clear Close and Distant, Day and Night Vision and Healthy Eyes. Eye Nutrition.

Work with a Bates Method Behavioral Optometrist, Ophthalmologist for a complete eye exam and be prescribed reduced, weaker and weaker eyeglass lenses (if needed for driving, work safety...) temporarily as the vision is improving. Gain complete freedom from eyeglasses and avoid harmful, unnecessary eye surgeries.

(Read the Copyright, Directions, Disclaimer in the books, on our website FIRST before practicing any eyesight improvement method. Do not practice with contact lenses. Do not practice if you have had cornea laser or any eye, eye cornea surgeries including cataract surgery with an eyeglass prescription replacement lens implanted in the eye. Check with your eye doctor first and read the directions, explanation on the website. The eye that has been altered by surgery may not function correct with practice of Natural Eyesight Improvement. Surgery and natural methods can conflict, impair each other's effects. These videos, books are for educational purpose only. The Author does not claim to be an eye doctor, optician, medical doctor. Always get an eye exam by an Ophthalmologist to check the health, state of the eyes, vision.)

Read Dr. Bates’ entire Biography on his Amazon Author page and in his books’ description, editorials; https://www.amazon.com/William-H-Bates/e...p_ebooks_1

The Optical, Medical and Drug Industry prefers to sell eyeglasses, contact lenses, dangerous/destructive cornea laser eye surgery, cataract lens surgery, other eye operations and drugs. They continue to suppress, hide the Bates Method from their patients, the public.

An honest eye doctor prefers the patient to stop use of eyeglasses, contacts... Will not prescribe strong eyeglasses, bifocals, tinted, colored, UV blocking lenses, sunglasses, astigmatism sections, laser cornea eye surgery. He/she teaches the patient how to reverse and prevent unclear vision, astigmatism, cataracts and other eye problems. Due to the truth about Natural Medicine being available to the modern public, interest in Natural Cures; Dr. Bates’ Better Eyesight Magazine, books, work has been recovered from individual owners, re-published-brought back to the public. Many HONEST Ophthalmologists, Optometrists, Opticians are teaching the Bates Method and monitoring, recording their patients’ Natural Eyesight Improvement progress.

NOTE: Some books created by other book assemblers, authors using Dr. Bates' name are on the internet, in bookstores. They add unnatural, harmful methods to their books; endorse lasik surgery, eyeglasses, contact lenses, sunglasses, pinholes, stereograms... Dr. Bates does not approve of this this! It is NOT his method. Unnatural methods, eyeglasses, contact lenses, eye surgery cause; impaired vision, strabismus, astigmatism, blindness... AVOID those unnatural books, teachers.

Our website lists the unnatural methods to avoid. I teach, preserve only Dr. Bates' TRUE, healthy Natural Eyesight Improvement method. (Note; I speak AGAINST the harmful Plus Lens (Anti-Corrective) method. It causes cataract, detached retina, floaters, astigmatism and other eye/vision problems. When I speak up about this; the people that sell this destructive methods (and Lasik... eye surgery) are abusive and retaliate by writing 1 star untruthful reviews of Dr. Bates and my books, videos, movies. They want to hide the Bates Method from the public because it works, produces clear eyesight and healthy eyes. Competing authors, teachers who try to sell Dr. Bates’ Better Eyesight Magazine, books and expensive training for hundreds, thousands of dollars use a variety of retaliation. I publish, teach only the true, healthy Bates Method and keep prices low. The bad guys do not like this.)

Dishonest eye doctors prescribe stronger and stronger eyeglass lenses, bifocals, unneeded astigmatism sections in the eyeglass lenses, tinted/UV blocking lenses and sunglasses knowing that this causes and increases fast vision impairment, eye muscle tension, abnormal pressure, tension on/in the eye, retina, lens.., dependence on stronger eyeglasses and leads to development of cataracts, detached retina, glaucoma, other eye health impairment resulting in thousands of dollars profit from performing cataract, retina, cornea... surgery. Eyeglasses, bifocals and eyeglasses with astigmatism sections... cause and increase astigmatism, conical cornea, cornea ulcers, infections, scars... I suspect that some Opticians, Optometrists that sell these and stronger and stronger eyeglasses secretly receive money, ‘kickbacks’ from eye surgeons when the business sends a patient that has developed a cataract or other eye problem, (advanced and ready for surgery) to the eye surgeon for an operation. Senior citizens are their main victim ‘customer’, abused by their doctors, told to wait for surgery until the cataract grows large enough while the doctor sells stronger and stronger eyeglass lenses, bifocals, unnecessary astigmatism sections... in the glasses, sunglasses... knowing that this practice will cause more vision impairment, increase, speed the growth, development of the cataract and prevent a natural reversal, cure of the cataract. A sales pitch for laser eye cornea surgery is often done after the patient's eyesight is greatly impaired from being prescribed addictive, stronger and stronger eyeglass lenses, bifocals and astigmatism lenses... When the patient feels helpless, scared, they are pressured into agreeing to eye cornea laser surgery. Laser cornea eye surgeons destroy the health, structure of the eyes’ cornea knowing it will lead to a variety of eye, vision impairments, sale of eyeglasses, more eye surgery. Lifelong eye drops. Many patients have experienced extreme, disabling vision problems, eye pain and blindness has occurred. Patients have committed suicide, explaining to their family they would rather die than live with the greatly impaired vision, pain and poor quality of life that the laser cornea eye surgery caused. See the FDA 'Cornea Surgery Side Effects Warning'. The law states that eye doctors do not have to tell their patients all the dangers, side effects of cornea eye surgeries. Laser surgery destroys the cornea's health, function and often results in more eye surgeries to correct the damage done by the first laser surgery. TV stations, newspapers... receive a lot of money for advertising laser surgery. Blinding people is the cruelest, most heartless type of crime! Doctors are doing this!

Dr. William H. Bates, Ophthalmologist, Central Fixation Publishing Co., New York City, New York, USA discovered and perfected Natural Eyesight Improvement. He discovered the natural principles, true, normal function of the eyes (visual system) and applied natural methods, relaxation to return the eyes, eye muscles, nerves, mind/brain, thought patterns, body (entire visual system) to natural, normal function with healthy eyes and clear vision. 'The Bates Method of Natural Eyesight Improvement'.

He cured; unclear close and distant vision, astigmatism, crossed, wandering eyes, cataracts, glaucoma, and other eye conditions. Natural Eyesight (Vision) Improvement was practiced years before Dr. Bates discovered it. It is the normal, natural function of the eyes. Hidden from the public by Eye Surgeons, Optometrists, Optical businesses for over 100 years because this method works, is easy, anyone can learn, teach it, including children. It produces healthy eyes, clear vision and frees the patient from the need to purchase harmful eyeglasses, drugs, unnecessary eye surgery. Yes, it can and has reversed cataracts!

Dr. Bates worked his entire life treating people successfully with Natural Eyesight Improvement. When he cured the eyes, vision of many patients, medical students and other doctors in the hospital where he worked with natural treatments, without use of eyeglasses, surgery, drugs and proved his method is fact and that some of the old theories of eye function are incorrect, only theories; the doctors, eye surgeons that preferred to sell eyeglasses, surgery, drugs became angry and expelled him. (See; ‘Reason and Authority’ and ‘Dr. Bates Lecture’ in Better Eyesight Magazine; November, 1919, April, 1923 and Articles in his book Perfect Sight Without Glasses.)

Dr. Bates then opened his own office, a Clinic in Harlem, New York City. He treated thousands of people by natural methods, including many of the poor people that had little money. He kept his price for medical treatment low and also provided ‘Free Clinic Days’ for people that could not afford to pay for a visit to an Ophthalmologist. He trained, certified other doctors, people to be Bates Method-Natural Eyesight Improvement Teachers. His treatments were successful. He cured the young and old, people of all ages, nationalities, cured a variety of eye conditions previously considered incurable.

The Bates Method is so simple and effective that many of his cured patients, ‘often children’ went on to cure their friends, family, parents, teachers and other children of defective vision. Including crossed, wandering eyes, blindness. Read the true story of the ‘two little girls that restored a blind man's eyesight’ in the Oct. 1925 Better Eyesight Magazine Issue.

Dr. Bates recorded 11 years of work in his clinic, his patients and their varied treatments, cures in his Better Eyesight Magazine, book and Medical Articles. Dr. Bates’ Better Eyesight Magazine contains many Natural Treatments, a variety of articles describing how Dr. Bates, Emily Lierman Bates, (his clinic assistant, wife) and other eye doctors, school teachers, Bates Method students, Bates teachers, children and parents used natural treatments to remove, correct, prevent many different eye problems; unclear close and distant vision (farsight, presbyopia, myopia), astigmatism, cataracts, glaucoma, conical cornea, cornea ulcers & scars, retinitis pigmentosa, wandering/crossed eyes (strabismus), amblyopia and other eye conditions. Done without eyeglasses, surgery, drugs. Dr. Bates used surgery, drugs only when necessary, (eye injury, infection...).

The magazines contain ‘True Life Stories’ of the doctors, assistants, patients, treatments. Interesting, entertaining, fun to read. A History book, life in the early 1900's. Vision improvement based ‘Fairy Stories’ and other articles for children are included. The stories produce a positive, relaxed state of mind, activate, improve the memory and imagination, teach Natural Eyesight Improvement, normal, correct eye functions. This improves the eyesight without trying. Effortless.

Dr. Bates discovered Natural Eyesight Improvement over 100 years ago - Started around the year 1886. Dr. Bates’ Better Eyesight Magazine, books are the original source of The Bates Method, true Natural Eyesight Improvement. The Original Better Eyesight Magazine collection is proof that Ophthalmologist William H. Bates discovered the Bates Method, Natural Eyesight (Vision) Improvement and is the True Author of the Magazine.

The Optical, Medical Industry/Association and most Eye Doctors, Opticians have hidden Dr. Bates’ work, magazines, books, articles, Natural Eyesight Improvement from the public for over 100 years because; The Bates Method improves the clarity of vision, eye function, Dr. Bates writings are proof that Natural Eyesight Improvement works, produces clear vision, healthy eyes, it describes, teaches people how to apply Natural Eyesight Improvement and obtain clear vision ‘on their own’. This prevents the need for purchasing eyeglasses, contact lenses, sunglasses, eye surgery and drugs. The Bates Method is safe, healthy for the eyes, reverses and prevents vision impairment.

After Dr. Bates’ death; the Optical Industry, Medical Doctors/Association destroyed Dr. Bates’ magazines, books, articles, removed them from libraries, schools, colleges, bookstores in an attempt to hide the truth about Natural Eyesight Improvement from the public, prevent people from curing their eyesight.

They bribed dishonest politicians, judges to pass laws preventing the public from teaching Natural Eyesight Improvement. They passed a law stating that only an eye doctor can teach the Bates Method. Most doctors refused to teach it. Ophthalmology, Optometry, Optician Colleges hid it, would not teach it. Eye doctors were taught in College to ignore the Bates Method. Honest eye doctors were afraid to teach it, were told that they would lose their medical license if they used it in their practice.

A few honest eye doctors, Bates teachers, students, libraries from the 1900's-present have hidden, preserved and republished Dr. Bates’ magazines, books and continue to teach the Bates Method despite harassment from the Optical, Medical Industry; Emily Lierman/A. Bates, Optometrist Harold Peppard, Cecil S. Price, Dr. William MacCracken, Bernarr MacFadden, Clara Hackett, Dr. Emery Ingham, Margaret Corbett, Aldous Huxley, Janet Goodrich, Thomas Quackenbush and many others.
(See the case of Margaret Corbett and Aldous Huxley, California, New York City;

The Optical/Medical Industry/Association brought her to court, accused her of practicing Optometry without a license. She won all cases brought against her and cured the eyesight of many people that were in the courtroom. Aldous Huxley (famous Author) was a witness for Margaret Corbett, proved to the court how she reversed his near blindness, improved his eyesight. He later wrote the book; ‘The Art of Seeing’. She won other cases, preserved the public's right to teach, practice Natural Eyesight Improvement.

I created Dr. Bates' Amazon page in Sept., 2014. Notice; Dr. Bates' page contains only books by Dr. William H. Bates, Clark Night, Emily; Dr. Bates' and Emily's ORIGINAL books. I add more pictures, training to the books. I publish, place only Dr. Bates' TRUE books, natural method (without use of eyeglasses, eye surgery, unnatural methods) on Dr. Bates' Amazon page. In 2020 Amazon managers allow me to create and post videos, biography... on Dr. Bates' page. Amazon owns the page, so; the page might sometimes contain books created by other authors using Dr. Bates' name, books. I try to prevent this by alerting Amazon. Warning; Some authors alter, add unnatural, harmful practices to Dr. Bates' books. Example; they allow use of; auto-stereograms/magical eye pictures/artificial 3-D, pinhole glasses, eye rotations/eye-eye muscle stretching, colored eyeglass... lenses, eyeglasses, contact lenses, lasik eye surgery, other harmful surgeries, eye muscle surgery, drugs, unnecessary eye drops, unhealthy herbs... Dr. Bates does not approve of this! The Copyright-Disclaimer-Warnings page on the website; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id110.html and in my books' copyright pages list the unnatural methods to avoid. This will protect you. Also see the Bates Method History page; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id4.html Unnatural methods, surgery, drugs cause and increase; vision impairment, astigmatism, crossed/wandering eyes, blindness, cataract, glaucoma, detached retina, dry eyes, dizziness, brain hemisphere/visual system imbalance and many eye, vision problems! Avoid book authors, vision teachers that add these unnatural, harmful practices, methods in their books, schools. My website; https://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info contains only Dr. Bates' TRUE books, safe-healthy-natural-original method. Look for these books on Dr. Bates' Amazon Author page; Books on Dr. Bates' Amazon page with author 'Clark Night' listed as co-author or preserver. See the copyright page. This ensures that only the safe, healthy, true method by Dr. Bates is in the books. Original Antique editions of Dr. Bates' books with nothing extra added, nothing altered are also very good. I endorse the book; The Bates Method for Better Eyesight Without Glasses published by Henry Holt & Company; a shorter version of Dr. Bates' original book. Everything in it is effective and healthy.

UPDATE; In June, 2020; Amazon took the unnatural vision teachers, authors' books off Dr. Bates' page. Thank you! They added Dr. Bates' Better Eyesight Without Glasses 1943 Henry Holt publisher edition! Mary I. Oliver (Clark Night-Pen Name)

Looks like Amazon United Kingdom still has our video; The Bates Method - Ophthalmologist Bates' Natural Eyesight Improvement Practices and How to See Fine Print Clear;
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bates-Method-Op...B07VCV5HL1

Competitors, other teachers ganged together to get our Amazon Prime videos banned. I am working on a new Movie and will contact, warn Amazon FIRST before publishing so they are aware of competitors this time.

I also post the videos on YouTube. YouTube has been very good over the years; https://www.youtube.com/user/ClarkClydeNight/videos
