Hello Everyone,

I'd really appreciate some counsel. I have been looking over the materials for the Photoreading course that a friend let me borrow and want to purchase the course and do it.

One small problem though, I have a problem with my eyes. One of my eyes is 20/20 or better. The other one is pretty bad. I can see OK, but I can't read the second line on an optometry exam without glasses and, because of my particular problem in my bad eye (astigmatism and far sighted vision), even with glasses I can barely see the third line.

So, the question is, I have been seeing that this program seems to focus on the skill of focusing your vision past the page in order to attain a certain effect. Would this work with my kind of problem?

You know those 3D images that are hidden in this pattern and you have to unfocus your vision in order for them to appear? I have never been able to see one of those.

I can function just fine because of my perfect eye and, for some reason, my 3D vision (being able to tell how far something is) is fine.

But I'd hate to spend $245 to find out I just can't do it.

Does anyone have any opinions, experience, things I can try, etc...?

Thanks!
Christian.

well my eyes r both 6/20. i dont know y u talk about it like its just a big deal, its not that u bump into a wall or something i do use glasses but only 4 watching movies or if theres a teacher who likes 2 use lots of artistic algebra... anyway, i have the course & i dont regret it.
i heard that photoreading works 4 legally blind ppl. u should run a search about it on the forum's db. also in the course it was said that if u dont need glasses 4 reading u dont need 2 use them but if u use glasses daily then u should use them while in photofocus because ull have a problem convincing ur belief if ull do otherwise.
