Click the image above to watch my most recent Bates Method 101 video, in which I address the topic of Clear Flashes, and how “dynamic relaxation” and “central fixation” are the primary ways to make these improvements appear and last longer.

When you start spending more time without glasses or contacts, in conjunction with actively practicing the Bates Method, you may begin to experience temporary improvements in your visual acuity, where you can see clearly without lenses in an area that is normally blurry. If you are nearsighted, you will experience a flash of clarity in the distance. If you are farsighted, you will experience a flash of clarity up close.

In this video, I share a handful of success stories and case histories of my vision students experiencing these flashes of clarity to provide you with some inspiration to experience them yourself.

Although it make take longer (months or years) to achieve 100% permanent improvement, you should be able to experience these initial improvements within the first weeks of practicing natural vision improvement correctly. If you are only doing physical eye exercises however, the flashes of clarity may not appear for you, because that is not necessarily the correct way to improve your vision naturally.

As Aldous Huxley explains in the excerpt that I out loud to you in this video, the key to achieving a flash of clarity is something called “dynamic relaxation”, which is the ability to relax your eyes and mind while in use. This is different than “passive relaxation”, which is the ability to relax your eyes and mind while not in use, when your eyes are closed, or there is nothing to see or focus on.

Another key, which is made apparent from several of the case histories and success stories Nathan shares in this video, is “central fixation”, or the ability to see best where you are looking, as opposed to trying to see your entire visual field (central & peripheral) in an equal amount of clarity.

The flashes of clarity may be partial or total. This means that you may not experience a flash of 100% clarity at first, but maybe a flash of 10%, 25%, 50%, or 75% clarity instead. No matter how clear your vision becomes during the flash, it is still a good sign that you are using your eyes correctly, serves as proof that natural vision improvement is possible, and provides you with a glimpse of the potential your vision can reach if you continue practicing the Bates Method every day.

Have you experienced a flash of clarity before? If so, share your experience in the comments beneath the video! If you have not experienced a flash of clarity, and you want to, consider getting some additional help or guidance from Nathan in the form of one of his online vision improvement courses, private one-on-one vision coaching online, or by using his book Give Up Your Glasses For Good: Holistic Eye Care for the 21st Century.
