Reddit threads next to the published case record

			== EndMyopia threads in other subreddits ==
			Search for "EndMyopia reddit" and most results come from r/myopia and r/optometry, which are not run by EndMyopia. The highest-ranking ones are single first-person accounts:
			* [https://www.reddit.com/r/myopia/comments/1iglgbb/i_tried_endmyopia_for_5_years_here_is_the_answer/ ''I tried EndMyopia for 5 years - Here is the answer''] (r/myopia). The author reports a measured change from -2.75 to -2.00, then concludes the method did not work for them.
			* [https://www.reddit.com/r/myopia/comments/viq8ln/the_truth_about_endmyopia_and_jake_steiner_my/ ''The Truth about EndMyopia and Jake Steiner (my opinion)''] (r/myopia). The author started at -6, followed the method on their own from the blog, and describes dry eyes, flashes, and later retinal holes and a tear. Excerpts are on [[Negative reviews]].
			* [https://www.reddit.com/r/optometry/comments/oagemp/thoughts_on_endmyopiacom/ ''Thoughts on EndMyopia.com''] and [https://www.reddit.com/r/optometry/comments/nuaczx/whats_the_deal_with_end_myopia/ ''What's the deal with end myopia?''] (r/optometry).

			== One account and the published record ==
			A thread is one person's experience, told once. The published record is hundreds of people's prescriptions over time: 423 first-person case reports from 2013 to 2026 in the [https://endmyopia.org/myopia-improvement-registry/ EndMyopia case registry] (DOI [https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21016340 10.5281/zenodo.21016340]), written up as a preprint (DOI [https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21230819 10.5281/zenodo.21230819]). Weigh them the way you would weigh any evidence: a single account next to hundreds of documented ones.

			== Flashes, floaters and the retina ==
			Higher myopia comes with a higher risk of retinal thinning, holes and tears, whatever method someone follows or doesn't. New flashes of light, a sudden shower of [[floaters]], or a shadow or curtain across part of your vision mean an eye doctor the same day. See [[Retinal detachment]].

	A '''Snellen chart''' is a standard method of measuring [[visual acuity]]. A chart is rated for the distance it should be viewed at, and the lowest line that can be read has a visual acuity result number next to it. The standard distance for Snellen charts is 20 feet or 6 meters. Smaller versions are available for use in smaller indoor spaces. Generally, most myopes can be corrected to the [[20/20]] line unless they have visual acuity problems other than myopia. There is no direct correlation between visual acuity and [[myopia]]. The Snellen chart is the most commonly used way of testing if someone has sufficient corrected visual acuity to drive legally. Your [[optometrist]] will use the Snellen chart as a reference, to see what refraction will allow you to read the lowest on the chart.
