I first began wearing glasses to correct nearsightedness
when I was thirteen. Over a period of forty-four years and progressively
stronger prescriptions, my eyesight declined. Then one day I had a
revolutionary idea. What if myopia could be reversed? After much research, I
came across a website that explained eye exercises which could correct
nearsightedness. I performed these exercises for about a year and my
prescription decreased from -4.50 to -2.50. I continued the exercises for another year but could never improve my
vision further. That’s when I discovered John Yee’s concept of Orthoculogy.
After only a few months, thanks to Mr. Yee and his lenses,
my vision was 20/20. Most optometrists in the US would believe my results to be
impossible. Their unwillingness to consider alternative therapies is
surprising, if not downright damaging to patients. The AOA code of ethics states that a practitioner is
obliged to put a patient’s welfare above his personal gain and to continually
broaden his knowledge of any therapies which might benefit his patient’s
vision. My own experience with eye care practitioners convinces me that this is
frequently not the case.
At the time I began Mr. Yee’s therapy, I was told by a
local optometrist that anyone who said that I could improve my vision at my age
(fifty-seven) was lying. Fortunately, I didn’t listen to that advice. As it
turns out, my eyesight got better in spite of optometrists, not because of
them.
Recently,
I went to get my driver’s license renewed and asked to take the vision test to
see if I could get the restriction removed. I was quite pleased that I passed.
I could see all the way down to the 20/20 line. Mr Yee’s method helped me pass
the vision exam.
I’m
very grateful that Mr. Yee didn’t become discouraged by the lack of acceptance
for his ideas. That’s usually the way with revolutionary concepts. It takes
awhile for them to catch on. I have every confidence that Orthoculogy will
catch on, and when it does, the eye care profession will be the better for it.

I have thirty
years experience in the study of nearsightedness prevention. John Yee has made
a major personal effort to design preventive methods for this difficult
problem, and these methods are effective.
It is always difficult to pioneer new methods in a field as
conservative as optometry, and it takes a bold “soul” to take these first
steps. John has made a strong personal commitment to this method of prevention
and has used it on his own children. He also provides this service to
police officers and military personnel so that they could clear their vision to
meet or exceed the objective visual requirements of those professions.
The originality of John’s work is very important. But
of far greater importance is the humanitarian aspect of that work, in that he
supported certain individuals who cannot afford good vision, at no cost to
them. Progress in this field will take professionals providing this type of
personal sacrifice of themselves and their time to help others. His
pioneering development of “Ortho C” shows promise to effectively prevent
nearsightedness at the threshold.
His standard of professionalism, and his commitment to
support the welfare of others sets a high example for all of us.

John
William Yee proposes a new form of natural eye therapy he calls Orthoculogy.
This means to improve one’s vision involving the whole eye. A good concept,
given the current trend to surgically lasering the cornea in order to correct
nearsightedness. If this system produces the results it promises, then the
safer Orthoculogy can be considered by the millions of nearsighted person
instead of invasive eye surgery for improving eyesight.”

I got to know John over the years
as a writer, and we share our general interest as a writer. Later I got to know
him as an inventor. I am impressed with his persistent research and drive to
achieve perfection.

When I started, I could only see
line 1 with a pair of -2.00 weaker glasses. Now six months later, I can see
line 8 with those glasses. The time he spent with me...replacing lenses I
broke...shipping problems...somehow we got through it. Ad we are not finish
yet.

I made a special trip to see John at
his clinic. He continues to treat me at no cost even after my follow-up visits
expired. Eventually I had the restrictions on my driver’s license removed by
the Ministry after I past their vision test.

When I first put them on, I was rather amazed that I
could see so well because these were plain and not prescription lenses. The
optometrist explained that what was probably happening was that my astigmatism
was being “masked”. Apparently, fluid in the eye fills the gap between the eye
and the lens and so improves one’s ability to see. But there has to be more to
it than that. When I took the lenses off after a few minutes, my vision had
changed and I could see better. I was staggered at the result and drove home
for the first time in more than a decade without any glasses or lenses.
My vision was so poor beforehand that I struggled to
see line 2 on the eye chart. Now I can see line 7, and I am able to drive
during the day without lenses of any kind. This is a huge improvement in my
vision.

Ortho C follows all the principles
of natural vision therapy that I teach my students in qigong. Just like laser
surgery, Ortho C promises permanent reversal of myopia but with none of the
inherent surgical risks of damage to the eye and resulting eyesight. Best of
all, it’s inexpensive, costing the same as a regular set of prescription
glasses—but you don’t have to wear them everyday for life! Not only does the
price of Ortho C makes the treatment available to everyone, but John takes a
personal interest in his patients and their improvement in eyesight. Truly a “promising
sight for sore eyes”! Thank you John, I can equate your contribution to eye
health as what Banting did for diabetes: the affordability of Ortho C makes it
available to anyone interested in reversing their myopia.

I can’t thank John Yee enough for
what he has done for me. Everything, from our first correspondence until now,
his service and care has been way beyond anything I’ve experienced before. The
best of all, though, is that his technique really works better than I could
have wished. Before applying the lenses, I was able to read up to and including
line 5 on the chart. Now I am able to comfortably read line 7. Prior to
this I would not leave the house without my contacts in or my glasses on,
I now wear neither. It is such a pleasure not having to bother
with contact lenses any more. During the whole time he regularly
e-mail me and keep me informed and answer my questions. I wish him all the
success in the world for all the help he has provided.
—Al
Stander, Troyeville, Gauteng, South Africa.
Before I started ortho C, my
eyesight was around -2.50 D with astigmatism of about -0.50 D. I could not see
at all without my glasses. After been in the treatment for a while, I can see a
lot better than when I started. I can see almost clearly with a pair of -0.50 D
glasses or -0.50 D soft contact lenses. At times, I can see perfectly clear
without wearing glasses or contacts.
Something else worth mentioning is
John’s assistance. Before I went back to Hong Kong, I encountered some
problems. John took care of them while I was in Hong Kong. I greatly appreciate
his caring service. I feel very happy that I found out about this treatment and
am very much loving the glasses-free world.

Over the course of the several
months I have been working with John Yee to improve my severe myopia, I have
been extremely impressed by the personalized customer service he has offered,
even on a daily basis where needed. He has responded to my questions
thoughtfully and promptly. He has followed up, in great depth, the basic
instructions about his truly inventive system, offering me a wealth of useful
information. This has made the process faster, easier and more efficacious,
allowing me to improve my vision from 20/200 to 20/70 in a remarkably short
time frame.
In addition, it has been a
pleasure dealing with him, and I am happy to know that I can count on
him to assist me in the future for as long as it takes to achieve the
degree of improvement I desire. And finally, Mr. Yee has shown remarkable
compassion by offering me visual aids at reasonable cost after my health
insurance was cancelled due to a job change.
As one of those in the U.S. who
has long admired Canadians’ ethics and sense of humanity, I have been
pleased to learn how much Mr. Yee embodies those qualities.
—Sarah
M. Eck, Bellevue, Washington, United States.
When I’m outside on a bright day, I
can read street signs from 100 feet. This would not have been possible before
John’s program. Sometimes, I’ll get a clear flash of 20/20 that lasts. My
vision is still decent enough to drive without lenses. I’m thrilled with these
results.
—Rick
Ciauri, Murrieta, California, United States.
John is sincerely interested in my improvement and not
just monetary gain. I have not had the pleasure of meeting John face to face
but he is trustworthy and has kept in contact via email. I have been receiving
treatment from him for a number of years now and I am confident that with his
support I can one day achieve the goal of 20/20 vision. This is a very difficult goal to achieve with
other opticians/optometrists who are only interested in selling glasses rather
than remedying the problem. His charges
as a therapist are low. For example: ortho K can charge from $2500 to $3000 for
their procedure or laser therapy can go as high as $5000.
I think John is sincere in his
therapy, and I wish him luck in it and I hope that he can help me attain my
goal of 20/20 vision. I know he will not
let me down.

You are indeed a very humble person
as taught by our Lord. You boast not about your invention, and you do not
charge a patient an arm and a leg to provide treatment. I salute you honestly.

I am
very pleased to hear of John Yee’s ethical approach to the dissemination of the
specific details of his discovery in “reversing nearsightedness”. He shows generosity
in his work with students and other individuals who would have difficulty
paying for his services. John simply does not charge them. This can be verified
by checking the website www.favorville.com and type in “nearsightedness”. I put
a lot of stock in the principle that persons who are fortunate to have
knowledge, or special skills, or resources, and reasonable health, should
return some of their talent and/or resources to the community. I try to follow
this principle, but John Yee exceeds whatever I have been able to do, partly
because his approach is so direct and concrete.
