FAQ n. 37. Power Vision System - I’m almost thirty-two and I’ve been living with myopia ever since I was fourteen. The problem is that I’ve grown up, but my refractive error is still increasing, very slowly. In all these years everybody has thought that my myopia is a genetic condition and can’t be stopped. (I’ve seen many ophthalmologists and university professors, read books on ophthalmology, and I hope I’ll take my degree in medicine very soon.) At this point, I can’t do anything else but hope that all these ophthalmologists could be denied. It’s true (as you know it well, since you study medicine) that it’s very hard to overcome the theories and scientific dogmas in any field—especially in the medical one.

Who would dare to question an already accepted theory? Now, too many previous certainties are questioned and the standard mantra about genetics is wearing thin. With time, then, the box-camera theory will collapse because of all the evidence against it. This book is about results that people can have by daring to overcome such obsolete paradigms.

This means healing and recovering their distance vision to normal by clearing their refractive errors. Science must always evolve but never become blind and imprison itself, unless it wants to run the risk of becoming obsolete by its own dogmas. True science should always question methods that have been handed down to us by a traditional quick-fix philosophy. Nowadays society is more interested in putting on correcting glasses than in allowing people to know the truth about their eyes.
