MiM also encourages chasing a feeling of stinging or watering in the eyes while practicing active focus.  EM strongly cautions against this attitude, instead recommending that any pain should be used as a hint to moderate any behavior.  Rule of thumb for EM: If it hurts, you really should consider stopping what you are doing that is causing the pain.

Marks [https://community.endmyopia.org/t/an-easy-way-to-achieve-active-focus/6807 claims] to have improved from "Left -5.00 with a -1.00 / 80 axis for astigmatism and Right -4.0" to "-1.50 in both eyes" between the periods of November 2018 thru August 2019.  This is considered very fast improvement by EM standards, and not considered a realistic improvement rate by both EM and mainstream optometry standards.

(EM suggests that a good improvement rate is 0.75-1.00 diopters a year, while mainstream optometry says that myopia reversal is impossible.)
