NOTE: Some books created by other book assemblers, authors using Dr. Bates' name are on the internet, in bookstores. They add unnatural, harmful methods to their books; endorse lasik surgery, eyeglasses, contact lenses, sunglasses, pinholes, stereograms... Dr. Bates does not approve of this this! It is NOT his method. Unnatural methods, eyeglasses, contact lenses, eye surgery cause; impaired vision, strabismus, astigmatism, blindness... AVOID those books, teachers.

Our website lists the unnatural methods to avoid.

This page preserves only Dr. Bates' TRUE, healthy Natural Eyesight Improvement method.

I place my name 'Clark Night' in some of Dr. Bates' authentic books that I preserve. Look for Dr. Bates and my name or website to be sure you are getting his original books. Authors; William H.

(Read the Copyright, Directions, Disclaimer in the books, on our website FIRST before practicing any eyesight improvement method. Do not practice with contact lenses. Do not practice if you have had cornea laser or any eye, eye cornea surgeries including cataract surgery with an eyeglass prescription replacement lens implanted in the eye. Check with your eye doctor first and read the directions, explanation on the website. The eye that has been altered by surgery may not function correct with practice of Natural Eyesight Improvement. Surgery and natural methods can conflict, impair each other's effects. These videos, books are for educational purpose only. The Author does not claim to be an eye doctor, optician, medical doctor.

Always get an eye exam by an Ophthalmologist to check the health, state of the eyes, vision.)

(Note; I post on a few Internet Forums, Groups. I speak AGAINST the harmful Plus Lens (Anti-Corrective) method. It causes cataract, detached retina, floaters, astigmatism and other eye/vision problems. When I speak up about this; the people that sell this destructive methods (and Lasik... eye surgery) are abusive and retaliate by writing 1 star untruthful reviews of Dr. Bates and my books, videos, movies. They want to hide the Bates Method from the public because it works, produces clear eyesight and healthy eyes. Competing authors, teachers who try to sell Dr. Bates' Better Eyesight Magazine, books and expensive training for hundreds, thousands of dollars use a variety of retaliation. I publish, teach only the true, healthy Bates Method and keep prices low. The bad guys do not like this.)

(See pictures of old and new drivers licenses on the website; no glasses needed!) The author teaches friends, family, the public how to obtain clear eyesight.

Dr. Bates' name is included as author on my books because the method is derived, discovered by him and his Better Eyesight magazine and book articles are placed in the books .

Our mission is to help people obtain clear eyesight, healthy Eyes. Book prices are kept as low as possible. Full Color Paperback books. Black and White and Shorter versions of the Paperback are also created for a lower price. Clearsight Publishing Co. donates part of our book sale profits to help the blind, visually disabbled: The Seeing Eye, Guiding Eyes For The Blind Guide Dog Schools, Perkins School for the Blind, DAV, Veterans.

The secret for clear vision that most eye doctors hide; what is shifting? It is Eye Movement; moving 'shifting' the visual attention (Central Field) from part to part on a object to see it clear. Relax. Blink. This is the main thing that brings clear vision. Replace squinting, trying to see with shifting.

Dr. Bates describes shifting in Better Eyesight Magazine; When you look at a chair; avoid trying to see all parts clear at the exact same time. Look at one part at a time. Look at, see clearest a small part, then move to another small part, then another... ; Look at a part of the chairs back, then move to a different part on the back, then another part, then shift to a part on a leg, then shift to a arm, then the top, then side... When looking at a part; continue to shift small part to small part on the part. The eyes truly shift 'point to point', jumping about with small, fast, relaxed, tiny movements (saccades); moving the eyes central field, its macula, fovea centralis in the center of the macula, eyes retina upon the object of visual attention. 'Shifting and Central-Fixation.'

The eyes move automatically with the attention of the mind, brain; objects the brain, eyes are looking at and objects, subjects, thoughts occurring in the mind using the memory, imagination. Improving the function and relaxation of the mind, body, memory, imagination improves eye movement, the clarity of eyesight. Clear eyesight further improves all functions of the mind/brain and relaxation. Each reinforce, improve the other. Relaxed, normal eye movements, relaxed mind relaxes the outer, inner eye muscles, pulls healthy light into the eyes, removes tension on/in the eye, improves eye circulation, returns the eye to normal shape with correct focus of light rays in the eye, clear eyesight.

Practice shifting at close, middle, far distances for clear eyesight at all distances. Practice as a healthy habit, normal, correct eye (visual system) function.

Test, practice with the eyes, vision this way with; both eyes together, one eye at a time, both eyes together again. If vision is less clear in one eye at one or more distances; practice a bit more with the less clear vision eye to get the vision equal, perfect in the left and right eyes at all distances.

Read, shift on fine print for clear close vision if needed.

This is basically the whole practice of Natural Eyesight Improvement. Relaxation of the mind and eyes (eye muscles, body, neck follows); this is Dr. Bates main treatment. When the mind relaxes, the vision is clear. I teach the students to "Practice, then Don't practice"; Let the eyes function completely, truly natural, perfect without any conscious control, direction.

Function of the mind/brain; memory, imagination and other functions that work with the eyes improve, increasing visual clarity.

William H. Bates. Central Fixation Publishing Co., New York City, New York, USA.

Dr. William H. Bates, Ophthalmologist discovered and perfected Natural Eyesight Improvement. He discovered the natural principles, true, normal function of the eyes (visual system) and applied natural methods, relaxation to return the eyes, eye muscles, nerves, mind/brain, thought patterns, body (entire visual system) to natural, normal function with healthy eyes and clear vision. 'The Bates Method of Natural Eyesight Improvement'.

He cured; unclear close and distant vision, astigmatism, crossed, wandering eyes, cataracts, glaucoma, and other eye conditions. Natural Eyesight (Vision) Improvement was practiced years before Dr. Bates discovered it. It is the normal, natural function of the eyes. Hidden from the public by Eye Surgeons, Optometrists, Optical businesses for over 100 years because this method works, is easy, anyone can learn, teach it, including children. It produces healthy eyes, clear vision and frees the patient from the need to purchase harmful eyeglasses, drugs, unnecessary eye surgery. Yes, it can and has reversed cataracts!

Dr. Bates worked his entire life treating people successfully with Natural Eyesight Improvement. When he cured the eyes, vision of many patients, medical students and other doctors in the hospital where he worked with natural treatments, without use of eyeglasses, surgery, drugs and proved his method is fact and that some of the old theories of eye function are incorrect, only theories; the doctors, eye surgeons that preferred to sell eyeglasses, surgery, drugs became angry and expelled him. (See; 'Reason and Authority' and 'Dr. Bates Lecture' in Better Eyesight Magazine; November, 1919, April, 1923 and Articles in his book Perfect Sight Without Glasses.)

Dr. Bates then opened his own office, a Clinic in Harlem, New York City. He treated thousands of people by natural methods, including many of the poor people that had little money. He kept his price for medical treatment low and also provided 'Free Clinic Days' for people that could not afford to pay for a visit to an Ophthalmologist. He trained, certified other doctors, people to be Bates Method-Natural Eyesight Improvement Teachers. His treatments were successful. He cured the young and old, people of all ages, nationalities, cured a variety of eye conditions previously considered incurable.

The Bates Method is so simple and effective that many of his cured patients, 'often children' went on to cure their friends, family, parents, teachers and other children of defective vision. Including crossed, wandering eyes, blindness. Read the true story of the 'two little girls that restored a blind man's eyesight' in the Oct. 1925 Better Eyesight Magazine Issue.

Dr. Bates recorded 11 years of work in his clinic, his patients and their varied treatments, cures in his Better Eyesight Magazine, book and Medical Articles. Dr. Bates' Better Eyesight Magazine contains many Natural Treatments, a variety of articles describing how Dr. Bates, Emily Lierman Bates, (his clinic assistant, wife) and other eye doctors, school teachers, Bates Method students, Bates teachers, children and parents used natural treatments to remove, correct, prevent many different eye problems; unclear close and distant vision (farsight, presbyopia, myopia), astigmatism, cataracts, glaucoma, conical cornea, cornea ulcers & scars, retinitis pigmentosa, wandering/crossed eyes (strabismus), amblyopia and other eye conditions. Done without eyeglasses, surgery, drugs. Dr. Bates used surgery, drugs only when necessary, (eye injury, infection...).

The magazines contain 'True Life Stories' of the doctors, assistants, patients, treatments. Interesting, entertaining, fun to read. A History book, life in the early 1900's. Vision improvement based 'Fairy Stories' and other articles for children are included. The stories produce a positive, relaxed state of mind, activate, improve the memory and imagination, teach Natural Eyesight Improvement, normal, correct eye functions. This improves the eyesight without trying. Effortless.

Dr. Bates discovered Natural Eyesight Improvement over 100 years ago - Started around the year 1886. Dr. Bates' Better Eyesight Magazine, books are the original source of The Bates Method, true Natural Eyesight Improvement. The Original Better Eyesight Magazine collection is proof that Ophthalmologist William H. Bates discovered the Bates Method, Natural Eyesight (Vision) Improvement and is the True Author of the Magazine.

The Optical, Medical Industry/Association and most Eye Doctors, Opticians have hidden Dr. Bates' work, magazines, books, articles, Natural Eyesight Improvement from the public for over 100 years because; The Bates Method improves the clarity of vision, eye function, Dr. Bates writings are proof that Natural Eyesight Improvement works, produces clear vision, healthy eyes, it describes, teaches people how to apply Natural Eyesight Improvement and obtain clear vision 'on their own'. This prevents the need for purchasing eyeglasses, contact lenses, sunglasses, eye surgery and drugs. The Bates Method is safe, healthy for the eyes, reverses and prevents vision impairment.

After Dr. Bates' death; the Optical Industry, Medical Doctors/Association destroyed Dr. Bates' magazines, books, articles, removed them from libraries, schools, colleges, bookstores in an attempt to hide the truth about Natural Eyesight Improvement from the public, prevent people from curing their eyesight.

They bribed dishonest politicians, judges to pass laws preventing the public from teaching Natural Eyesight Improvement. They passed a law stating that only an eye doctor can teach the Bates Method. Most doctors refused to teach it. Ophthalmology, Optometry, Optician Colleges hid it, would not teach it. Eye doctors were taught in College to ignore the Bates Method. Honest eye doctors were afraid to teach it, were told that they would lose their medical license if they used it in their practice.

A few honest eye doctors, Bates teachers, students, libraries from the 1900's-present have hidden, preserved and republished Dr. Bates' magazines, books and continue to teach the Bates Method despite harassment from the Optical, Medical Industry; Emily Lierman/A. Bates, Optometrist Harold Peppard, Cecil S. Price, Dr. William MacCracken, Bernarr MacFadden, Clara Hackett, Dr. Emery Ingham, Margaret Corbett, Aldous Huxley, Janet Goodrich, Thomas Quackenbush and many others.

(See the case of Margaret Corbett and Aldous Huxley, California, New York City;

The Optical/Medical Industry/Association brought her to court, accused her of practicing Optometry without a license. She won all cases brought against her and cured the eyesight of many people that were in the courtroom. Aldous Huxley (famous Author) was a witness for Margaret Corbett, proved to the court how she reversed his near blindness, improved his eyesight. He later wrote the book; 'The Art of Seeing'. She won other cases, preserved the public's right to teach, practice Natural Eyesight Improvement.

The Optical, Medical and Drug Industry prefers to sell eyeglasses, contact lenses, dangerous/destructive cornea laser eye surgery, cataract lens surgery, other eye operations and drugs. They continue to suppress, hide the Bates Method from their patients, the public. Dishonest eye doctors prescribe stronger and stronger eyeglass lenses, bifocals, unneeded astigmatism sections in the eyeglass lenses, tinted/UV blocking lenses and sunglasses knowing that this causes and increases fast vision impairment, eye muscle tension, abnormal pressure, tension on/in the eye, retina, lens.., dependence on stronger eyeglasses and leads to development of cataracts, detached retina, glaucoma, other eye health impairment resulting in thousands of dollars profit from performing cataract, retina, cornea... surgery. Eyeglasses, bifocals and eyeglasses with astigmatism sections... cause and increase astigmatism, conical cornea, cornea ulcers, infections, scars... I suspect that some Opticians, Optometrists that sell these and stronger and stronger eyeglasses secretly receive money, 'kickbacks' from eye surgeons when the business sends a patient that has developed a cataract or other eye problem, (advanced and ready for surgery) to the eye surgeon for an operation.

Senior citizens are their main victim 'customer', abused by their doctors, told to wait for surgery until the cataract grows large enough while the doctor sells stronger and stronger eyeglass lenses, bifocals, unnecessary astigmatism sections... in the glasses, sunglasses... knowing that this practice will cause more vision impairment, increase, speed the growth, development of the cataract and prevent a natural reversal, cure of the cataract.

A sales pitch for laser eye cornea surgery is often done after the patient's eyesight is greatly impaired from being prescribed addictive, stronger and stronger eyeglass lenses, bifocals and astigmatism lenses... When the patient feels helpless, scared, they are pressured into agreeing to eye cornea laser surgery. Laser cornea eye surgeons destroy the health, structure of the eyes' cornea knowing it will lead to a variety of eye, vision impairments, sale of eyeglasses, more eye surgery. Lifelong eye drops. Many patients have experienced extreme, disabling vision problems, eye pain and blindness has occurred. Patients have committed suicide, explaining to their family they would rather die than live with the greatly impaired vision, pain and poor quality of life that the laser cornea eye surgery caused. See the FDA 'Cornea Surgery Side Effects Warning'. The law states that eye doctors do not have to tell their patients all the dangers, side effects of cornea eye surgeries. Laser surgery destroys the cornea's health, function and often results in more eye surgeries to correct the damage done by the first laser surgery. TV stations, newspapers... receive a lot of money for advertising laser surgery. Blinding people is the cruelest, most heartless type of crime! Doctors are doing this!

An honest eye doctor prefers the patient to stop use of eyeglasses, contacts... Will not prescribe strong eyeglasses, bifocals, tinted, colored, UV blocking lenses, sunglasses, astigmatism sections, laser cornea eye surgery. He/she teaches the patient how to reverse and prevent unclear vision, astigmatism, cataracts and other eye problems.

Due to the truth about Natural Medicine being available to the modern public, interest in Natural Cures; Dr. Bates' Better Eyesight Magazine, books, work has been recovered from individual owners, re-published-brought back to the public. Many HONEST Ophthalmologists, Optometrists, Opticians are teaching the Bates Method and monitoring, recording their patients' Natural Eyesight Improvement progress.
