[[EndMyopia]] is based on the premise that '''[[myopia]] is just a [[refractive state]], and not an irreversible medical condition''', as has been demonstrated in [https://endmyopia.org/success countless improvement cases] over many years. Many students have managed to completely reverse their myopia and regain [[20/20 eyesight]].
[[Endmyopia]] is a vision improvement method created by Jake Steiner. It raises awareness that '''[[myopia|near-sightedness]], in the most common case of [[lens-induced myopia]], is just a [[refractive state]] and not an irreversible condition''', as has been demonstrated in [[Moved:Improvement cases|countless improvement cases]] over many years. Many students have managed to completely reverse their myopia and regain [[20/20 eyesight|visual acuity]].
 
EndMyopia does not exist as a quick-fix money-making scheme, and although there is a [[BackTo20/20|paid course]], it is entirely optional when it comes to improving your eyesight. All the information you need is freely available in the blog articles of the [{{EM}} main website] and the [[EndMyopia YouTube channel]].
:''Reasonable suspicion should be involved while reading, and any normal person really shouldn't [[blind belief|blindly believe]] this. (although you are welcome to)''
:''There's a lot of [[Unicorn Farming|weird and ineffectual stuff]] related to vision improvement on the internet. EndMyopia doesn't involve silly [[eye exercises]] and routinely makes fun of people who do them.''

You can read the wiki, and all websites for that matter in dark mode through browser extensions. This can reduce eye strain significantly. See [[Guide:Enabling dark mode|this guide]] on how to do that.  
Endmyopia exists as a balance of free and paid materials.  There is a [[BackTo20/20|paid course]], for those seeking a structured approach and support from Jake.  A great deal of information is freely available in the blog articles on [[Moved:Endmyopia.org|endmyopia.org]] and the [[Endmyopia YouTube channel]]. This wiki summarises many ideas from these sources, and can be used as a reference of sorts.
:''Reasonable suspicion should be involved while reading. Read some third party [[clinical studies]], don't [[Guide:How_to_doubt_Endmyopia|blindly believe]] eyesight improvement just from us or some other source, do some research.''

The wiki is [[EM:CC BY-SA 4.0|free to use and share]] and is written by contributors like you. Most editors have had some degree of success in improving their eyesight, otherwise they wouldn't have any interest in writing an entire wiki. ;)
This current version of the wiki is under review. Contributors will be notified of changes and updates.
