The content is from February 16, 2025.
No other thing other than vision. We have accepted to pay thousands of dollars every year to make our condition worse. I heard eye doctor say this, which to me is crazy. 40 readers, 50 bifocals, 60 cataracts, 70 glaucoma. At 80, you have AMD macular degeneration. And I'm like, no, we don't want this. Eyes and the brain, where we actually see a living, breathing organism, anything, our stress levels, our emotions, our nutrition, everything has an impact on our visions because our nervous system, if we are constantly in the sympathetic nervous state, our pupils are dilated, our peripheral vision shuts down, our vision will be worse. And how many of us are stressed all the time? What I work with is really, how do you actually use your eyes and your brain all day long? And based on nervous system regulation, eye anatomy, neuroscience. So that's my approach.
